She just tells her business manager which one she wants when it's new car time. She traded an SL600 when the lease expired.

Don't get me wrong, I feel more at home with the working stiffs over here but there's a whole 'nother world out there in terms of disposable income.
How can you buy a car and not know how much it cost? :confused::confused::confused:

Rich folks have never made any sense to me. It's like money means nothing to them...

I've compared those $10 chinese calipers to my $110 set of Mitutoyos... Many times they read well within a normal person's repeatability when using digital calipers. The worst ones I've had are no more few thousandths of an inch off.

He is measuring the clutch life. I think the cheap calipers are OK for that.

"Whilst off from the shop, I got a call on the tele and proceeded to put a tyre off the road. What I though was a brilliant exercise in car control ended up causing the car to lose control and total the car crashing into a petro station. Off to buy another, Cheers."
