thnx. apparently it needs a bit more work that I thought, all shocks except for the front left are shot and theres something seriously wrong with the steering (feels like youre grabbing onto a wood chipper in the lack of a better description), havent looked into what it is yet but it certainly looks nice outwards (the car, generally) :}
I can only hope there isnt anything else seriously wrong with it / Can only hope im not buying a polished turd.

Sounds as if the belt in one of the front tires is broken.

Ask and ye shall receive, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI (Turbo diesel)

35/42 mpg, but diesel costs less than gasoline.

That's just an example of one make and model my friend, but the Jetta is a mighty fine car and has won numerous awards lately. I'm still a Toyota man though, Honda being my second choice.

You have obviously forgotten about the Fiero.

Yup, that was a cool car IMO, know why? They had many car kits that you could buy and install to make it look like an Italian sports car.
