Spring brings new springs. For the car.

And one less previous owner nonsense (red springs).

No exceptional difficulties, the bolts for the shock absorbers needed some convincing to come out, but nothing serious compared to salt-soaked marine diesel bolts.

No spring compressor required, with the shocks disconnected I gently let the rear axle down until the springs could be lifted out.

A rear coil spring from an Astra J. It's red, rusty and snapped in half, roughly in the middle.

Italian verve
#Fiat has brought the 500 bang up to date as the 500e, an electric #car with plenty of Italian style and character. And, as Jack Yan found out, you can forget about range anxiety

Oops. Found this while swapping to summer tyres.

Guess it's time for a springtime spring replacement.

Don't ask why they're red. Stupidest thing to have in a place with famously crappy roads. Used car features! :)

I am curious. I am spending about €250 per year on maintenance. I also spend about €1.600 per year on public transportation - Infrequently visit my father by train, and he lives about 550 km away.

If you own a , what are your annual running costs - excluding the purchase price, but including fuel, maintenance, and insurance?

Il s'agit de la dernière photo concernant la Guadeloupe que j'ai publié. Il n'y en aura pas d'autres. Et c'est avec une petite boule au ventre que je vais appuyer sur le bouton publier.
J'écrivais.

Il y a des endroits qui nous marquent. Qui laissent une emprunte à tout jamais marquée en nous. Qui nous changent en profondeur.
Ces endroits exceptionnels qui nous ressemblent, au point de découvrir des morceaux de nous-mêmes en les explorant.

Ibiza m’avait touché, mais jamais aucun lieu ne m’avait fait autant cet effet que la Guadeloupe. Sur cette carte, des centaines de souvenirs sont éparpillés. J’y ai trouvé des parts de moi-même et en ai laissé d’autres.

Guadeloupe. Fantastique Guadeloupe. Tous tes trésors me manqueront.

Photo réalisée dans la Jeep Renegade de Sixt Antilles.

Getting a couple new tires on the car. Hey dude don’t turn on my radio. I know you did it because my phone connected to Bluetooth while I was listening to a podcast on ear buds. 🙄

Impressive how Xiaomi apparently build a quite good EV. Where Apple canceled it's car project and carmakers like VW are still struggling.

Vicious Rumor: Apple secretly had a secondary car project with VW. They will announce the new iCar-us at WWDC. The WWDC logo is a clue…

Though I have a few vinyl records, a handful or so, I don't have a record player. What I do have is tons of CDs that I now can't play in the car because the tech bros who design cars now think everybody is willing to either listen to commercials or fork over money every month to creeps like spotify. And I will do neither.

It is ridiculous in this day and age to have to haul a CD player to my car and jerry-rig a connection to the audio input like it's 1995, but here we are.

Ghostly Wheel — Here's a self-developed photo from a little while ago, taken around Oct 22. I was looking through film negatives tonight and this one popped out as somewhat interesting to me. I recall thinking back then it was nothing special, but I felt it was worth another look so I popped it in the scanner.

So WestConnex was totally going to solve traffic in Sydney by adding more lanes for cars. Just a few teething problems on the Rozelle Interchange and it'll all clear up, they said.

I wonder how it's going?

"Gladesville and Drummoyne locals say gridlock is worsening in their suburbs following changes to improve traffic flow through the notorious Rozelle Interchange, with drivers using local streets as “rat runs” to dodge congestion."

Oh dear...
