These pages are a collection of anecdotes and useful stories from the newsgroup aus.cars (Click here for a groups.google link). They are quoted from the original author, with typos fixed but otherwise as pure as the virgin snow. Comments or context have been added by me in italic. Each page is arranged in alphabetical order by author.
