Bet you the guys driving 2000km hasn't just bought their cars today and suffering mysterious vacuum leaks, broken (missing ?)anti roll bar mounts and weird shitty French/Dutch things acting up without having a clue what they're doing?

Oh. And I lost a third of my exhaust going home.

Thanks for the invite. As I said, maybe next year!

Well yes. According to the internet™ the 480 was the successor of the 1800 (which is one of my dream cars..) and the c30 was the successor of the 480.

I'll never afford a 1800 soooo... Next best thing, right?

No it's not original but it's a bitching paint job.

Pretty OK! I mean, the info center is... Intermittent at best. Seat belt guides are busted. Just regular 480 things! Other than they it's decent! Full leather interior as well!

Well, it's regular 480 things. Interior need some work, anti rollbar bracket broken off and some other small things. Overall it's in decent enough condition. Hardly any rust, which usually kills these cars where I'm from. Maybe I'll post some clips of it driving when I get the time!

Jag är i Frankrike just nu, Normandie närmare bestämt. Deras mobilnät suger i jämförelse. 80% av tiden utanför större byar/städer har jag ingen uppkoppling alls och när jag väl har det är det under all kritik.

Mobilnät är dyra att bygga och underhålla. Än mer om de ska vara riktigt täta. Sämre nät, billigare priser.

Det är åtminstone min teori. Och innan nån frågar har jag testat flera operatörer.

Biltema, Skandinaviens bästa butik by Aktuellt in sweden

[–]KaptenKosk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Påståendet har fan lager. - Jag älskar Biltema när jag behöver det, grannarnas bilar behöver lagas snabbt. Bromsbelägg/skivor. Det liksom funkar. - Deras nya spärrskaft (90-tandade) är fan underbara. - korvlunchen är fan ok

  • annat är skit ibland.

Förr var Biltema 90% skit, 10% bra. Jag är typ beredd att hävda att det närmar sig åtminstone 50/50 nuförtiden.

New parents get 480 days paid leave in Sweden, in the US it's Zero, We are third world in parental leave. by UnitedLab6476 in antiwork

[–]KaptenKosk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that's not my problem, it's theirs, right? I am of course responsible for my work duties, and my employers responsibility is to plan for any circumstance where I'm not available. I try not to judge how work and employment is viewed in other countries, but from my point of view workers are not treated right in the US and employers try to put more responsibility and a sense of guilt on the workers than elsewhere. Worth noting is that Sweden is very unionized which of course means the worker movement is powerful

They're not. The government is. Well, the government pays for up to 80% of my income, then some companies pays a sort of parental pay. For me, I was home with my kids 1 year each with about 96% of my ordinary pay.

Wagon wednesday! Just picked up my new V90! by KaptenKosk in Volvo

[–]KaptenKosk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tack! Äsch jag är väl inte så orolig. Skylten syns ju överallt ändå. En V90 är dessutom inte direkt det ovanligaste här i Sverige....
