After completing my shiny new 308 I decidied that I'd replace the tired old 3 speed box with a 4 speed so I picked up an M20 that appeared to be in super good condition - ther gears look like they have never been used, the synchros don't look fractured and the oil is clean and not

| Are small Euro cars more expensive to service than Jap cars? | 12 Oct 2006 08:55 GMT | 23 |
I'm tossing up between a Euro or Jap for a small car and servicing costs could be the tie breaker. Can anyone share their experiences with either? Alternatively, is there a website out there that will outline what the estimated servicing costs are for various cars? Cheers.

| Poor truckie (pics) | 12 Oct 2006 06:30 GMT | 21 |
Because this bridge is on an angle with the road it always pushes trucks over when they hit it (as can be seen by the many previous battle scars on the bridge). This poor bloke almost got killed as his roof got crushed in. There wasn't much head room after this. The pic isn't the ...

| Trailer wiring. | 11 Oct 2006 16:09 GMT | 6 |
I've been given a 6x4 box trailer for free. The guy had it sitting for 10 years in his back yard. Anyway, it's structurally sound, and only needs a couple of tyres, and some new wiring. The existing plug has been torn off, and the existing lights are

Okay, most are saying go for the Subaru. Exactly how reliable are they. Ive driven a few Turbo Legacys in NZ and only two Libertys here. One was last night and it was gutless wonder but the previous was okay. My point is, the Subarus for my money are going to be 2000/2001 RX models

| Bathurst is too high tech. | 11 Oct 2006 11:23 GMT | 41 |
All of the technology that modern race teams employ has made motor racing a very dangerous and somewhat boring sport. It is high time they dump the computers and 300 kph vehicles and go back to something resembling cars the average punter can actually purchase.

OK, shameless product plug for Brasso polish, however I'm impressed. Can't remember using it before. Athol or someone suggested I try it to remove scratches from a CD-R, and that is when I

| Getting a Camry Manual tranmission - bad idea? | 11 Oct 2006 05:13 GMT | 22 |
The superseeded Altise model, got it down to the $22,800 mark for an altise limited. Only concern was this: * The gearbox would be almost near impossible to get 10-12 years down the track if it screwed up.
