Something like, "we consistently set low standards and fail to achieve them"?

Or,

Those who can, do. Those who can't, fantasise about it in their minds and talk about it on forums.

Just about sums up our current world.

There's a debate to be had here. It's about where form, a design considered worthy of praise , becomes more important than function, a car that is to be driven. If indeed a car can be considered art or whether it's just to do with rarity and from a respected manufacturer and the cycle of where some ...

Been on ADUK a while, not a lot recently... So, with the goings on "over there", found you lot here! :) Same s*1% different name! Welcome. Maybe not, BGOL and PP, no mega threads yet. Of course it could be the "honeymoon period" and "normal service" will soon be resume...

Same old, the majority of NZ drivers don't have a clue, as with here. I know, we've been driven by a few and I've driven many times there. Thing is, many of the roads there have little margin for mistakes but for local drivers it's just the familiar such that any concept of "what if" doesn...

I remember reading, donkeys years ago, about Renault experimenting with solenoid controlled valves, such that, as others have said, timing could be very variable. Might the problem be reliability? The traditional system has its faults, related to poor design or parts specification and user ignorance...

I'll take a gamble on whether others here will consider it a classic but we enjoyed our Astra GTE 16v. It was an early one, pre catalyst, no ABS but with camshaft oiling problems solved. Sure a bit of respect was needed but neither of us ended up in a hedge, an occasional bit of correction perhaps w...
