Default How to kill a car

On Thursday we got a massive 1500+ people looking for tips on "how to kill a car" in a 3 hour period! I don't know what caused the spike, perhaps something on TV/Radio but I can't imagine what it was?

Why would anyone want to kill their car? I am struggling to find a reason why somone would try to assasinate their car.

(Our article that they read for this search is here, which is more about prevention that causing major damage!)

It's very strange. A sudden blip and then traffic went back to normal for the page.

It is strange. As if I ever wanted to do such a thing, I would give it to my stepbrother for a week end.

He is to cars as what death is to......well.....death.
