And they pay for themselves on the first use.

Because I didn't have enough going on in my life, I just fell into a 1.6 litre diesel engine with a lower geared transmission than the one in my Jetta. It's out of an '85 Golf. Got the whole car( not quite worth saving) for $350. TMFP, and here comes winter. Sometimes I even make ME wonder.

My son has renamed my car as the "Franken-Jetta". Guess I should change the garage.
