So, there's two previous Wazua threads I missed and has made my life so dificult while trying to understand this one.
- what hare once said.
- and va china.. (suspect this is related to Vera thread, which I have avoided...)

Ni sawa..

Life is joy, death is peace, but the transition is very difficult.

Oooh! Didn't expect this. Some comments are just hilarious! To those saying labda ni kuzoea Probox, hapana. I drive a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland which gives me no problems even on long trips.

Secondly, the guy got in touch with his insurance company and they're working on it, though hakusema it was with someone else. Ilibebwa to Nrb the next day.

Finally, I still got some 'consolation' that night from the 'new catch' in a not-so-clean motel somewhere in the middle of nowhere. She could understand that it was an emergency so hakuna kuchagua where you're going to spend the night.

@Dr Dre pole. Care to tell us the whole story, like what happened after that?

I saw one too burning too near Sultan Hamud when coming from Mombasa from Easter holiday.However when your car gives you issues let it burn and let the insurance sort you out less the excess.The beauty with burning is that the evidence is burnt!!!!


And the x5. There is one close friend who has to jumpstart his every 2 days. New 20k battery, no detectable problem but the hitch persists. European cars iko kitu sisi bado jua, zasumbua kweli.


Seriously?
And the way it leaves me with my mouth.....every time it zooms past me?

not really. strange that simonkabz can use something happening to a friend of his (who for all we know used a clueless wire guy to screw up the electronics etc) to say that x5 has issues. this can not even pass as anecdotal evidence. or maybe we should read it in context of his disclaimer that he is clueless about european cars.

That's an overstatement, he is actually clueless about anything cars, may be mkokoteni!
