US headlight control Apparently, in the US, its standard to have "automatic" headlights. They come on when the ambient light has dropped sufficiently. Anything to reduce the driver's load I guess. Jason ... 10 Mar 2010 08:37

Interesting video For those who remember, or who try to remember or those who like nostalgic stuff or those who can't remember but want to know what it is all about, this video is about an 85 year old woman in the US who has travelled more than 500,000 miles, or 800,000 kilometres in her 43 year old Chev.

Ram-air intake plumbing I remember years ago during the Bathurst 1000, the film crew actually got a shot of the engine bay of a VK Commy race-car or a model close to that.

Why don't car companies sell direct to customers? Wouldn't it be great if you could just order your car over the web, pick the colour and options, and then pick it up from the distributor and bypass the dealer altogether? It seems a dealer is only really useful if you need to trade in a car, or arrange financing, otherwise they seem rather unnecessary. Think... 10 Mar 2010 09:44 |
