We are up about 21% as well. Over the last 12 months. This sounds great but the previous year was pathetic. Most people only say when they have a good year and don't mention the bad ones. There are always some bad ones.

Great report. Did a lot of that same ride 2 summers ago. Great memories.

Good thing that was covered. :eek:

Reliability is easier to achieve when limits aren't pushed. I've owned a few Hondas (CRV, Civic and a Prelude) and my wife drives a Lexus. They are fine for what they are but are not special at anything and thats ok. I'm not knocking them at all.

No IMS bearing past I think 2010.

I wont argue. I've been lucky. With over 75000kms owning two of them I had to have a AC hose replaced 2 summers ago. $1600. Thats it. 981's are incredibly reliable. But yes parts are an eye watering price. I know someone that had to replace both headlight assemblies on a MY2000 Boxster. About...

Agreed. Who wants to drive around at 8500rpm to have any performance. I looked at them when they were new and thats what turned me off. Choose a Boxster instead. The Porsche in 3rd gear at 5500rpm is an absolute blast.

I've owned two different Porsches for 20 years. Thinking of selling my present one in the spring. Thing is unless I'm willing to sell it for a deal of a lifetime I'll probably continue to own it and thats ok. Market is bad for toys at present. Buyer would have to have cash on hand to buy. Rates...

Nice looking bike. Oh, if I had the garage space.

Nor will I.☹️

Daughter now lives in Sydney. Vancouver for 2 days. Then Sydney for 7 days staying at her and her partners apartment in the city centre. Driving down the coast for 3 days to Melbourne with her and her partner and staying at his mother's place in Anglesey. 3 days in that area then the two of us...

Putting it away end of October as I'm away for the month of November. Australia and New Zealand.

I see what looks like a date on my gas water heater. 2002. Is the consensus I should pay the $100 and get out while I can? I'll have to call and confirm the date but it seams plausible. I've owned the house for 32 years. I think we pay about $30 plus tax a month.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Australia no longer has any domestic auto manufacturing. So nothing to protect.

Truer words were never spoken!

Getting those funds will be the real challenge.

We had a 2006 manual Legacy wagon. Great 4WD. Horrible reliability. Had it for 8 years. About $8000 in repairs. And yes head gasket was one of those.

I've owned a few wagons. Subaru and a TDI. I'd choose one over a SUV. Unfortunately few choices exist these days at a price I could justify.
