ELO is awesome and I will not hear otherwise.

I was foolishly mistaking ELO for this band and seriously could not comprehend how there were not one but two people on one page in this thread claiming they rock.

It was a fun car to drive, and it looks fine from the outside, but ye gods the inside.

Holy christ, he says he likes it: http://www.topgear.com/uk/jeremy-clarkson/clarkson-mini-copper-s-2002-01-08 and yes, the 2002 version looks pretty much identical inside. Ah well, I don't really expect the man to have good car opinions, he mostly seems to make it up based on 1) Manufacturer name, 2) Country of origin, or 3) Contradicting what everyone expects him to say.

And ultimately, 4) Is it or is it not an Aston Martin.

Remove the dumb headlight covers and it's awesome.

I think those came stock on the SRT4, which I'm just now realizing. I've never seen one without them. I guess I'll give them a pass from now on, like the late 90's Lexus's with Altezza tail lights.

If only it were the size of a fiat, it would be acceptable as a cool, futuristic novelty vehicle, but as is, it's a $50k eyesore

I actually like that quite a bit for once (it's the European version, right?)

I am not familiar with this version of the Escalade. Must be a prototype

If I had had my way when I was 15 or 16 years old, that would've been me driving that thing. I wanted my first car to be a "slammed white import pickup truck with rims and a bed full of subwoofers and a color-matched acrylic cover." I had only a fleeting interest in rap music at the time.

Haven't laughed this hard in hundreds, nay, thousands of pages of various threads. Of course it'd be at a cock and balls spray painted on the hood of a Veyron.

At least they sort of did them a solid (HEH) by keeping it on the hood, and not like, busting a load over onto the fenders and whatnot.

So the wife comes home last night and says go look at my driver side front tire....


Lovely gouge out of the side wall, still holding 34 PSI though. I put her spare on, drop the jack and go hun it looks like the spare was a bit low. Spare was at 20PSI and supposed to be at 60!

Wife doesn't admit to scraping a curb or any such thing....

I drove to the other side of town not too long ago to help a friend with a flat tire. Put the spare on, and it's looking really low. I told her it's way too low, and our first stop had to be a gas station with an air pump. That piece of poo poo didn't even make it to the nearest one. It was bouncing the entire time and half of the tread just shredded off after about 15 seconds of city street speed.

Of course, I've had my car for 7 years now and not once checked the spare's pressure...

I suppose I should feel terrible for getting that it was a Fast & The Furious reference though. Was a legit RHD Altezza though

Bullshit, rear end in a top hat, nobody likes the tuna here!

Wrong thread in my opinion.

I'm with you. I feel like I'd have a ton of fun at some convention like this. But, if I saw this on the road (do people who do this even drive these cars?) I'd get irrationally upset.

The idiots didn't retighten the battery cables after doing their "thorough inspection". The cables could be slid on and off with a finger. I wonder what else they screwed up?

Hah, I made this screwup when I replaced my first (or second?) battery. I think I swapped it out in an Autozone parking lot, and only had pliers to loosen/tighten the bolts. I got them essentially finger tight and figured that was good enough.

A couple months later, all sorts of issues start popping up. Flickering headlights, random electronics cutting out, car stalling with no warning. I never suspected the battery since it was pretty new, and the car started just fine. Then when changing the oil, I noticed the top covered in dried acid. Luckily, Autozone prorated the replacement pretty well...
