Glub! Splut! Phloopmph!
Well, the elves from Ingolstadt have struck again.
Went to a meeting this eve, parked facing upward on slight rise. Rained (not
hard) during meeting.
Backed down driveway, drove away, came to stop sign at end of block.
Stopped. WHOOSH! SPLASH! Instant shower! Evidently water ran into the
sunroof cavity and filled it up while the car was parked on the incline.
When I stopped, it poured out onto the unoccupied RF seat, and onto my
(bald) head.
What do I recall about drain tubes in the sunroof assembly? (86 5KS)
Also, spoke to Wagner about 9004BL ("Bright Light") headlight bulbs. Was
offered six at $9.57 each plus $1.50 P&H. Tech support says they don't run
hotter than normal 9004s, but put out 18% more light. Stay tuned.
Last item: Found a source of lease money for USED cars - must be over
$10,000, has to be high-line stuff, Audi (of course), M-B, Bimmers, Jags,
Vettes, etc., or classics. Quoted a 72 T-top vette, price $14,000 at $3K
down and $225/mo, 4 years, $5K residual - heck you can hardly drive a Yugo
for that! Quoted a 92 968 at $430/mo, first and last only. Perfect credit
NOT required.
Please e-mail me PRIVATELY if any of this interests you - I DO have an
affiliation with these people (talked them into letting me be their agent),
and other than this announcement, you will NOT see further mention of this
service on this list - how do I get this onto the vendor's list?
Best Regards,
Mike Arman
(I wonder if I get a break leasing an S-6 to myself?)
