Post Weather Repor

Dmitry ;

If I was driving a Kia or Yugo, I'd worry about the weather ~

Part of why I drive and maintain a 34 year old Mercedes with over 413,000 miles on it is because I drive a LOT (800 miles every 7 days normally) so I need a car that's not phased by inclement weather, Desert storms, third world road conditions etc. etc. .

Those who work on and / or drive sportingly, old cars will tell you : old German cars do it the best .

Even my old VW's with tiny 1192 C.C. engines will whiz right along in gully washing down pours, albeit noisily and slowly .
