Sell it..... Expensive and flashy cars are turn offs to Women. Same with telling them some flashy job. They like cute and funny in both! I might get married, the day Women stop giving me their emails and phone numbers!
Nope. A Lexus or two. :D
I cut a deal with a car dealer who did mostly European cars. I could buy and sell on his dealers license for $300 per car. I could also borrow cars from him for the same deal. $300 over what he paid. So I borrowed, Mercedes, BMWs, Jaguars mostly and a few Porsches...
Id say when you are between 16 and 25, you cruise in any upper end European car, you get: "what time does mommy and daddy get their car back" Herd that more then once. Ghia or bug, etc. the women come up and start asking about the car. Its an ice breaker. Even when not cruising, gas station or...
I'm not a big fan of the engine swap. The early V12 was a problem but it was more a carb issue. Well serviced its an awesome engine. We never had a problem with one, but we only kept them 2years. Was some sort of tax deduction trading every two years. Maybe didn't own long enough for problems...
Whatever. Personnel experience. Besides a Ford excursion and an F250, I never owned anything below a Porsche, BMW, or Mercedes. Granted some are older, but most have been near new.
I've driven every model of Jaguar, Mercedes, Porsche, some Ferrari's and Lamborghini, etc. Non got me Women. The only car that got me laid more then once was my Karmann Ghia!
the original top down XJS...
I was going to watch the whole thing and download Shameless and Walking Dead. It was cool seeing the old cast members. But non did anything interesting enough to keep me watching. Changed the channel and watch the other two shows instead.
My parents bought a new Jaguar every two years starting in 76 until 88. Only had one problem with one. The A/C compressor took a crap. Never any engine troubles on all 6 of them. The expensive part was a full service was pricey on the V12's. They had to remove the engine to get the back spark...
Could be. I forgot the airport. The airport wants the plane removed. The owners are looking for money to restore it. It flew in the early 90's, but has been sitting since. Estimate to restore is $1.5million.
Going by memory. It was only about 5 or so minutes in the cockpit. He was probably taking a break. Was space for one anyway. I looked it up, they stopped using the L1011 because it was too expensive to operate. 3 flight crews and fuel cost was the main factor. Second to last commercial airline...
Interesting. Fox News just did a bit on the first plane to be called Air Force One. Its at an airport in Arizona, needs a full restoration. Its a Lockheed Constellation and first carried Eisenhower in 53. Its a four engine prop plane. They didn't call it Air Force One in the beginning, just its...
