  2. Shit! I'll just have to throw away that new radar detector I guess...
  3. Apparently Elvis Presley was the first customer....
  4. I got a feeling it a Mitsuoka, the coach Jap coach builder famous for the cars based on the Nissan March.
  5. I hope they think about the safety aspect of it very thoroughly so it doesn't lead to another tragedy like N'Eliya...
  6. Anyone heard of a "know it all syndrome"? I'm pretty sure someone on the forum has it....
  7. Not any more embarrassing than being bought over by Geely .... LOL
  8. I've seen plenty of single cab Land rovers converted to full body and double cabs, but this is the first time I'm hearing about Hilux conversions. Came across the following on another well known vehicle website...
  9. Missed 3, Seat, Citroen and Fiat, all Euro...

    Does it say Bajaj by any chance? :-)
  12. I don't think our road network is that complicated to require the use of Sat Nav...
  13. I've bought a lot of stuff, but never had them directly shipped to SL. I would ship to someone in the US and have them bring it down.
  14. He doesn't work for the company, he owns it. Google Mal-Key.
  15. Thanks everyone!
  16. Thanks Boys! No wishes for more cars? Just kidding.
  17. BUILT - being the key word here (past tense). I don't think they do any longer. Plus I've never seen new Hummers at dealerships. Colombo seems to have more hummers than they do here in Ohio! http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/01/13...duction-to-end/
  18. Really? Where do people like cowboy Bush fit into this?
  19. Here's the article, http://www.sundaytimes.lk/100425/BusinessTimes/bt03.html
  20. Wasn't there supposed to be a Jaguar X type assembly plant in Hambanthota too? "No action, talk only I believe"
  21. Quattro owner here on the forum, but not in SL
  22. Sir, The US Federal Trade Commission, which is the watchdog for false advertising and marketing, also has the following to say in addition to the 'patents' you mentioned http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/autos/aut10.shtm
  23. Milroy in Kelaniya Baddawela motors on Cotta Road For small repairs in Kandy you can take it to Willy's Automobiles Owners of all three garages are ex-BMW mechanics at the agents
  24. Didn't we hear about a couple of accidents involving MSD/PSD defenders rolling over?
  25. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/17/business....html?src=busln It's not the sticky peddle, it's something about the traction control failing to correct tail sliding. Apparently Toyota has acknowledged the issue. Consumer reports is quite impartial unlike most of the media, so I'm guessing there actually is a problem. But the bigger problems is American consumers want someone else to be responsible for the stupidest action they do. Why can't they just control their own car?
