I was screaming at the TV just last night about a column shifter being in park as the car drove down the street.
The car in question was a first gen Previa with fake wood on the exterior, which I was just starting to like when I noticed the shifter.

Really good value. Have them as tucked away tool kits in cars and under the seats for bikes.
I usually have to swap useful and useless bits and pieces out to make them match the car or bike.
And I usually give the bottle openers away, though I think they are collectible.

I'm not a regular browser of the surplus sites but there are often LLVs available - the Iron Duke engined boxy things.

Could be selection bias but across the groups I work and socialise with, Russia is recognised as a threat to Europe and beyond. Lots of moaning about the reporting language describing something like that as an escalation.

What year is this they used photo from?
