Yes, but EU laws still apply. We got all of the cons of leaving the EU with none of the pros.

Looks good. What's the cover over the rearmost side windows? Some sort of mount for something?

Neat, I figured it was something along those lines. I've somehow never seen one before.

...yet another snow storm came and went...per top right pic, good thing I left that protective barrier of dirt in place guarding against the inevitable road salt and brine assaults...

...full plastic shielding + 5 layers of dirt =  no rust. But upcoming oil change booked today will mean extra certainty via hoist inspection on my theories of protective layers

A week ago, Ford announced they're going to bring back an old nameplate as a reinvented Ford in Europe. A week ago, I said it was going to be a crossover or SUV most likely called the Sierra.

 

Turns out, it's not the Sierra, it's the Capri but it is a crossover.

Ye

It's a fan render.

 

Only thing confirmed is that it's called the Capri and it's an electric crossover.

What a coincidence. I almost killed a bear on the way to work as well recently. I'm not allowed in that nightclub anymore.

Fortunately the damage wasn't as bad as I though.  Still going to be about $1300 in replacement parts.

did my timing belt/water pump/tensioner yesterday with only minor headaches 

 

but afterwards on the the test drive I got a CEL for my NOx sensor (2nd time in <6 months), tried to use VCDS to recalibrate and/or force a regen but 0/10 success

 

then today I rolled my rear passenger window down and it won't go back up

 

woe is me
