I bought this car from the 2nd owners who had owned it for 20 years. They took great care of it. When I bought it, the owners were moving to Colorado to be near their children and they were going to drive the car out there. Their son intervened. Not because the car would not make it, but because his parents were in their 80's. My wife and I just used the car this weekend on a trip to Pennsylvania Dutch Country, a round trip of about 150 miles. The car performed flawlessly. Runs very cool, excellent oil pressure and cruised steady at 80 mph on the PA Turnpike. It was PA inspected in March and passed with flying colors. Runs very nice and tracks down the road straight and solid. The previous owners put a matched set of Pirelli P6's on the car and they still have half their tread life left. They used Mobil 1 for their oil changes and the car idles perfectly and you cannot feel it running when stopped at a light. All electrics work including the headrests on the seats and the passenger power mirror. Sunroof, windows all work perfectly. The central locking system works nicely.I even tried the cruise control today( I hate cruise control) but wanted to see if it worked and it did. Has an aftermarket Blaupunkt cd player/ radio. The son, who acted on behalf of his parents when the car was sold to me, told me it was his mom's car. He told me she used those big shade boards when she went out and put them in the front windshield and rear package shelf. It paid off as the dash is beautiful and the rear package shelf and tops of rear seats are beautiful also. The door panels are really nice as ar the carpets. The seats are not split or ripped and have only age cracks in the leather. They are very presentable. The only thing that might have to be addressed in the interior is the rear headliner has gotten puffy over the back package shelf. I got a quote to have it drawn tight again. The shop quoted me 125-150. It's for time only, the headliner material is in fine condition. The a/c will have to be recharged as it was only cool last year and now is just warm. The body is very nice. The paint just absolutely glows. I cleaned and polished the car myself and it came up nicely. All the brightwork is very nice. There are 2 spots where the body has bubbled. The one spot is about the size of a quarter and the other spot 2 quarters. I have included the spots in the pucs. They are minor. The bumpers have some scrapes but mostly are decent. I have just ordered spray paint to match the bumpers. It's called Sato Gray and it comes in semi gloss just like the bumpers. I will include that for the new owner. Even the wheels, which have some nicks as you would imagine a 25 yaer old car would, have nice gloss to them. I get thumbs up and people asking me about it all the time. It's not a show car but is extremely presentable and you will be proud to drive this car as I have been.

Why all of this year's F1 noses are so ugly [w/video]
Fri, 31 Jan 2014If you're a serious fan of Formula One, you already know all about The Great Nosecone Conundrum of 2014. Those given to parsing each year's F1 regulations predicted the strong possibility of the so-called "anteater" noses as far back as early December 2013. Highly suggestive visual evidence first came after Caterham's crash test in early January, with further proof coming as soon as Williams showed a rendering of the FW36 challenger for this year's championship. That car earned a name that wasn't nearly so kind as "anteater."
Casual followers of the sport - or anyone who gets the feed from this site - probably don't know what's happening, except to wonder why the current year's F1 cars are led by appendages that would make Cyrano de Bergerac feel a whole lot better about himself.
The short answer to the question of ugsome F1 noses is "FIA regulations and safety." The reason there are various kinds of ugsome noses is simpler: engineers. The same boffins who have given us advances including carbon fiber monocoques, six-wheeled cars, double diffusers and Drag Reduction Systems are bred to do everything in their power to exploit every possible freedom in the regulations to make the cars they're building go faster - the caveat being that those advances have to work within the overall philosophy of the whole car.
Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
VW, Fiat, Mercedes could be CNG winners in Europe
Fri, Dec 12 2014Fiat ads in the US try to play up the exotic, sexy side of Italian culture. On the home front in Italy, however, passenger-vehicle sales are marked by something less edgy and quite a bit more practical: the growth of compressed-natural-gas (CNG) powered car sales. In fact, Italy is leading a group of European countries where CNG sales are on the upswing and may be benefiting automakers like VW, Fiat and Mercedes-Benz, according to Automotive News. VW started sales of its Golf TGI natural-gas vehicle this year – the company's fourth in Europe – while Mercedes-Benz added a natural-gas B-class model. Fiat accounts for about 50 percent of CNG vehicles sold on the continent. In all, Europe's CNG sales through September totaled about 67,000, up seven percent from a year earlier, Automotive News Europe says, citing research firm JATO Dynamics. And the number of CNG vehicles on Europe's roads could jump tenfold within the next decade. The draw is a combination of lower refueling prices and a CNG drivetrain that typically emits less CO2 than diesel vehicles. As for Italy, about five percent of new-vehicle sales are CNG. To put that into perspective, hybrids, battery-electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids and diesels combined to account for about 4.2 percent of US vehicle sales last year.
