My wife’s previous car was a Jetta wagon. Great car. I liked it more than I like her current MB C250.

I just bought an under bb plastic cable guide for the 84 Claud Butler. $4, plus $6.50 shipping. On Amazon they wanted $35, free shipping.

I tried to talk her into a Jetta wagon. Now she’s got a Mazda 3.

I did like how my '07 GTI V drove, but not the repairs. Occasionally I ponder getting one as a nicer runabout than the GX, then I remember the repairs and that I'd be wanting a used one, which can't possibly be better.

Which Civic? Mine was a crappy '97 DX with rear drums, and even so the front discs never needed turning. And I was not gentle.
