2 days ago I watched a documentary on TV – “Tank Overhaul” about restoration of a “Panther” tank from WW2.

Very interesting, comprehensive documentary. Impressive details about the design and application.

One can see that over- engineering is dated back for years; results are the same – low reliability, high maintenance demands, failure to deliver the expected overall performance….

Sounded and looked kind of familiar……

Sorry…

 

Daaah Something like the vehicle I love to hate??

 

Sounds like a Ford to me...!

 

These audis are unreal difficult to work on........i never thoght i'd miss my mustang gt so much- i knew it inside and out; i can't even pull up the coil wires off the plugs without possibly breaking them; i'm sure their is a special tool for plugs anyhow..............i did find the battery & bought a 9 inch allen key to remove it- ridiculous; what's wrong with a normal bolt either 1/2 in. Or 11-12 mm ??.............it's become an idiotic world; thank god for heineken- i can easily find that(so far)-of course they want me to self checkout now !!

 

well, Heineken is Dutch. So even if they're considered pot heads, their beer is still readily and easily available. Hell, and its Pilsener fresh taste is far more reliable than the German "Truth in Engineering"
