@dollywobbler the passenger airbag thing is called a bunloaf.

I'm finding some amusing videos from Autocar India, good production values but some of the tests for native cars sees some proper shite. We all know they have Tata, Mahindra etc still over there but seeing somebody review them with genuine enthusiasm and ignoring how dated or povo spec they are can be entertaining.  Also models from international brands that aren't sold in the west..

..And then a glance at the comments; almost all positive and many professing how attractive it is.

Might be of interest to some!

I found this more interesting than I expected (he means fail in a US context). Stellantis look away now.

Yeah that's really boring, thanks for sharing. 

I loved it. Very of its time. Sue Baker tries to find as many synonyms of 'competent' as possible.

Related: I'd sooner watch an hour of Woolard era TG than ten minutes of 'new' TG.

40 years ago VW wanted to convince people that their knees were not the crumple zone.

Unsurprisingly I was considering buying this Coupe de Ville as it was cheap* and local. Unsurprisingly it turns out to be a complete POS. 30 years in the UK haven't done it any favors.

Enjoyed watching that, thanks.

However watching them getting nicked for driving it about with defective brakes would of made the vid for me. Maybe it was all staged and they weren't gunning it about on the highway with dodgy brakes. Im no angel and have nursed many a shit piece about over the years and still do. Stinks a bit of dickish behaviour to me.

But yeah, entertainment.

This guy's hoarded/messy house cleaning videos are interesting. Here he is cleaning the interior of his wife's car.

Btw can anyone help me with info regarding the racing cortina I've got, it's believed to have been prepared by A.C.M. Engineering of elffished nots ( see pic of id plt below) , & may have competed in the sparkright & rusteze championships driven by the Popular driver Ben Shaws. I think it had a twincam Holby fuel injected engine.
