The stuck at 70 was up a little hill, the stuck at 50 a big hill.
Why women are allowed to drive is beyond me.

when u say stuck,

is that stuck as in it wont go quicker

or stuck as in shit, its not slowing down?

either way, is scares me that people like you are allowd on the road?
it randomly decides when it wants to fix its self
strange thing

Its not a living creature .

either your car is seriously in need of repair, or you simply need a better car with more power!

Was it stuck at 50 and "fixed itself" when you realised you had 3 more gears to change up into?

second that. the misses 306 used to do this, few times i thought the turbo had packed up but it was just the mat.

she wears heels when driving and it pushed the mat fowards everytime she moves the legs!!
