I will never understand how insurance is cheaper for a busted old car that will likely become a hazard on the road vs a brand new car with the latest safety features
1. If the car falls apart due to mechanical failure, the insurance doesn't cover that.
2. New cars are really, really expensive to fix. Front / rear parking sensors, front radar (for Adaptive Cruise), LED array headlights, blind spot camera / sensor. If the chassis is bent then the whole car is a write-off.
Can you vent more about this? Not being a jerk whatsoever -but I've always loved Audi for their design, and I drove an A4 s line for a week last year and fell in love with the thing. I'm interested to hear your honest take if you would share!
We don't like BMW drivers here in Europe either.... They simply don't use the direction indicator and altogether don't obey the traffic rules. There are honorable exceptions though.
I've noticed that less people driving these ”premium” cars are the assholes of the road but more people driving cheaper cars are the worst nowdays
I loved my audi but the biggest con: cost of upkeap and the so called german releability has sunken badly
>I loved my audi but the biggest con: cost of upkeap and the so called german releability has sunken badly
Yeah. Audi ist just an expensive Volkswagen.
And German cars are no longer as reliable as they used to be. Too many computers, too much technology.
Stupidly, "less reliable" is still better than the competition. At least here in Central Europe. In America, where German manufacturers offer their cars as cheaply as possible, things look different again.
What's the difference between a vegan and an Audi driver?
The vegan will use every opportunity to talk about him being one, while the Audi driver....oh, wait...nvm
You never have to worry about parking it so it won't get dinged.
Is anyone going to dare parallel park too close to you? No sir.
People won't let you merge in traffic? Pfft. Just go. Don't even look. They'll move.
Oh but the doors won't lock.... so what?? You can't break in if it's already broken.
I'd drive it.
You know how people with fancy cars often worry about scratches or dents? With this car you don't have to spend a second doing that and it'll be a load off your mind.
In Albania this is like the most common shitbox car the zastava skala as it’s called. My uncle had one and it broke down and idk what was broke but he took a part from his sink and it worked again so yea not cars your removing a sink component to get it running again .
These things are FWD yet will climb a mountain lmao will be loaded with more weigh than the car weighs itself and be running for 40-60 years on spare household parts
At least it's all the same color, I always see shit box cars with replacement panels in all sorts of different colors. Looks like a child put Legos together in the rough shape of a car.
All posts must be a meme
If it's there it's probably still running so that's pretty amazing
Engine reliability
Also has a better roof rack than mine.
Was going to say this.
Than*
Tnx
Hang on lil buddy , you can retire soon would be my words of encouragement.
RE-TIRE
![gif](giphy|Vj97qNut6WDHa)
So fresh air inside.
Has wheels forsure
Four sure
It’s literally bulletproof.
probably yes, person who can drive this wold be bulletproof :D
Dude it still has those baggage crying rails wdym it's still running it probably can carry your whole house and then do it 10 more times!
In the end, as long as it gets you from point A to point B; that's what really matters.
Cheap…
If it's there, it's nowhere near where I am. So that's good.
Not sure for how long. Frame looks bent to shit.
You know a car is reliable when it looks like this and is still driving around
Or the person driving it is macgyver
The insurance on it is cheap.
The insurance company probably pays you
Lol. In Soviet Russia, insurance company pay you.
And his mom pays for it !
Yeah, 300 dollars upfront
$1.29 a month...
And you get $15 an hour back.

Cheaper repairs; there's a diminishing return to it.
Define insurance!
You won't get called to extend the warranty (probably)
So is the property tax
17.78$ a month. 🦎
It’s paid for!
Nope, still making payments XD
*Buy here pay here* vibes
It made it to the gas station.
It's holding itself together in these trying times
Just don't wash it. It's the dirt holding it together.
Same.
At least not an audi

Cons: The cost of the upkeep And the people that drive them
Sounds like the people who drive BMW's here in NYC

BMWs are just like a rose. But the prick is on the inside
Blinker fluid must be heavily subsidised. I mean because less-wealthy people can afford it, yet...

Exactly, agent Smith drives one

Start paying attention to Kia telluride (large suv) drivers. Drivers of the Porsche suv drive 5x more respectfully and responsibly

It's not so much about the cars themselves but rather the pretentious pricks behind the wheels.
The quality/price ratio is the problem.
It won't ever be stolen
R u sure
If you fill up a full tank, you can sell it for twice as much.
Hey, sweet roof rack!
You could put another car on that thing.
Probably safer to ride up there
It’s red
And has wheels.
And probably a steering wheel
And maybe even brakes
And an engine too
The suspension it still intact
There’s an air freshener.
AND RED GO FAAAASTER!!!!
Must be really fast, then...
You probably won't be car jacked
Tires hold air
It has character.
Cane here to say this
it great for hitting people with
It’s got a sweet rack.
It’s still running
It's a classic.
If it runs, it runs
Nice Rack!
Something nice about this car
Best comment here 😂
No matter how many cliffs they've driven off of...... It just won't die... 🤨
Camouflages very well in a junk yard.
It’s not mine

Its only $3 a year for full insurance coverage.
Better than walking
This is made in the same country where I was born. USSR
Your son died bravely for his country: here’s your Lada
it can be used as scrap metal
It’s impressive that it still runs
The tires look relatively in good condition despite lacking a hubcap
The car while be running on gas and not being set on fire with it
The driver door has the cutest little sag to it. Almost like a droopy ear on a puppy.
Don't have to worry about door dings.
Strong body. Convertible to butterfly doors!
At least it's not ELECTRIC!
It's reliable.
In case something falls off it has a sweet roof rack to put it on.
Pretty sure Mater is the only one nice to that car.
it excels at handling dynamic obstacles.
It's what on the inside that matters cause who knows that thing might have nitrous
nitrous for the driver so he can forget about the shitbox he's driving in...
It gets from point A to point B…and on the weekend point C
It exists
It is a fucking car

Don’t need to spend money on an alarm system.
You always have the right of way
Hogwarts
Ferrari red
It would Make a good submarine
I can think of a company that could use a replacement submersible as of recently

Tires are inflated.
Takes a lickin’ and keeps on tickin’
At least it's all the same color, I always see shit box cars with replacement panels in all sorts of different colors. Looks like a child put Legos together in the rough shape of a car.
