I'll just copy and paste here.
I was at an intersection, stopped. I looked both ways.
Note that this is an intersection where looking to the right is useless.
Started out.
Before I could stop, there was a minivan on me. I tried to swerve and stop, and got the brakes locked, but couldn't avoid it.
The car's definitely totalled. I'm uploading pics now.
It will get replaced by another VW. Hopefully a diesel, but I'll replace it with a gasser VW long before some crappy tin-can Japanese gasser that gets 50 MPG.
...
I just remembered.
There's a Rabbit diesel 2 miles from me.
When I was looking for das sootwagen, I saw this Rabbit, and asked about it.
It was dead, and they were going to swap in a gasser engine out of a GTI.
If they haven't done anything with it, I might snap it up. From what I've seen passing by the car down the road, it's one of the cleanest Mk1s I've seen, period.
And, I have a good 1.6NA just WAITING on a car to go into.
I'm not 100% certain I want to do a swap, but that's a case where I'd be dumb not to.
Besides, that's an engine replacement, not a swap.
Oh, and the worst week of my life, in a block of text:
Know how I said that I was
SOOO looking forward to Friday?
Well...
Monday: Unnecessarily go into work.
Tuesday: Have a monitor fire.
Wednesday: Drop my exhaust, and get it sorta back on, but not right.
Thursday: Have a crapload of crap at work, and find out that the hot coworker I wanted to bang is knocked up.
And, now...
Friday: When I'm talking to said coworker (on something work-related) and she looks me in the eye, I get a little queasy. Then, I go to my mechanic's, and he had the time wrong (and was therefore super late), and I had left because I needed to get home. Then, on the way home...
DAS SOOTWAGEN WAS TOTALED!
