241. Re: TR4 Daily Driver Question (score: 1)

I think a stock engine will win on both cost and reliability. My engine rebuild -- just about everything -- cost just over $3000 in parts in 2000, but that's worst case replacing everything. Your cho

Ah, Carl's brief answer shows more thought than my response. Robert, why do you want to commute in a TR4? Depending on how extreme the temperatures are where you live in New Mexico, maybe a well used

I didn't mean that as a challenge. I was more interested in Robert's goals. For years both my wife and I have commuted in 30-40 year old cars, but it's not a good fit for every situation. I commuted

I have a friend north of Denver who installed heated seats in his TR4. He raves about them. Apparently they're a real plus for the S.O. who might otherwise show limited enthusiasm for a brisk evening

One of the vents is intake and the other is exhaust -- if you were planning to add an air intake snorkel to your TR4 for stream crossings, this might be the perfect upgrade! Even if not, you'll proba

Chrysler has had a big effect on MB -- Chrysler Group's gains offset Mercedes Car Group's losses. Maybe the Chrysler 300 saved my free can of diesel! ;) Not to mix boxer's towels with bath towels, bu

For parts, you're probably right. There is no shortage of complaints on the MB lists about 'stealerships' though I've found my local dealership to be very helpful. It's not too surprising that U.S. d

Rather than make a go at profitability, many observers had expected BMW to strip what they wanted from Rover Group and sell off the rest. Which is what they did. And (a rehash from yesterday) since B
