we no longer have a safety inspection, emissions testing is required once a car is 4 years old, and every 2 years afterwards.

I live near NY City in New Jersey. Right I am paying, in Northern New Jersey, the equivalent of 53-57p per liter, depending on what grade of fuel ($3.25-3.49/US Gallon).

I have been cleaning up my '99 Ducati that I put on eBay...

If the only reason that we get involved in these military interventions is oil then can someone please explain our involvement in the Balkan crisis? Also if all we are doing is trying to secure our future supplies of oil then I suggest that we wouldn't bother to get involved at all. It doesn't matt...

Is that a Stag that I spy in the showroom?
