Damn I wish I still had my FTP. And yes those are 16" wheels on an Accent

You should have used Photoshop's Swirl filter to conceal your licence plate. There's no way it could be decoded afterwards amirite? :lol:

I suspect drunken pointy smear in Corel is somewhat more effective :wink:

But i doubt they'd have to go that far anyway, this colour isn't exactly easy to get, and the dealership is right there.

Spring better come soon, cause these tires SUCK in the snow. :oops:

I have a blown belt in my front left tire... No driving for me until I manage to get a replacement, it's pretty bad and I don't want to do more damage

Not surprising with the fine roads in the HRM

Do they ever fill a pothole.

What a pain in the ass...

New front left tire
New rotors all around
New timing belt
New fog light assembly
Allignment
Some other expensive thing...

$2800 including labour after taxes... Oh well, that's my major repair for the year *knocks on wood*

Sweet, congrats.

My new ride is a few years old, can't complain.

What a peice of crap loaner they gave me while they do the work that was supposed to be done before I picked it up. My old '99 was in better shape.

At least you get a loaner... Since the Porsche/Jag/Rover/Volvo dealers are practically the same place, the best cars in for service any given day get one of the two loaner cars, a lovely ford fusion..

The Porsche owners always get them, I'm stuck with the shuttle : (

If you own a Porsche/Jag/Rover/Volvo (in this case Volvo I believe) you relinquish all rights to complain.
