They're not reliable

drifting ember Sep 29, 2023, 5:35 AM

I quite like them personally but they're not good cars

Rotary engines aren't reliable

cobalt yew Sep 29, 2023, 5:35 AM

#

are they just really unreliable

#

ohhh ok

drifting ember Sep 29, 2023, 5:35 AM

#

There's a reason it's cheap for that many miles

#

Yeah man

cobalt yew Sep 29, 2023, 5:35 AM

#

drifting ember Sep 29, 2023, 5:36 AM

#

Yeah

cobalt yew Sep 29, 2023, 5:37 AM

#

okok i see

#
