[W126 Coupe] cAR fAX--dAVID fATOVIC

[Dawid Loubser]

Kivendren,

To my understanding (and as mentioned earlier in this thread) Carfax  
is a U.S. -only system, i.e. all cars sold and
serviced there have a central record which is maintained by  
dealerships over the years.

The best you can do in South Africa (well, while it's still called  
that, with the idiots in government currently
changing everything from Airports, Streets and Provinces to whipe out  
the influence from the "evil" white
man - sorry, this is really pissing me off) is to ask your local  
Mercedes-Benz dealer for a full history on your
car (there is a particular name for this, but I forgot).



Continuing my rant (let's get this over with) - what the **** is a  
more sensible name? The (current) Johannebsurg International
Airport (it is situated in Johannesburg, After All) or OR Tumbo  
International Airport? This is just to provoke politics again. After the
white government handed over the country in 1994, the plan was to  
work together to build a new country. Part of this
process was choosing neutral place and airport names (they changed it  
from Jan Smuts International Airport in
1994 for that very purpose), but now they have to go and rename every  
last single thing (again), making every white person in this
country (if you haven't been killed yet, or driven out by the  
intolerable crime and infrastructure problems) feel totally unwanted
and depressed.

Those of you in Europe and the U.S. (even though I do not  
particularly condone everything your government is doing) - you have
no idea how lucky you are. I am a white person in a country where I  
am hated and discriminated against because of my colour,
yet when all this stuff happened I was only a kid, I had nothing to  
do with the politics. We have to see bit by bit how everything we
hold dear (monuments, place names, historic accounts, ...) get broken  
down and changed, how money gets spent on this yet
there are such incredibly serious other problems to take care of  
(there is, for example, no viable public transport, anywhere,
whatsoever).

This whole place is a joke - and the Soccer World Cup in 2010 will be  
a monumental failure in my opinion. Yet our President
goes and states that this will be better than Germany's, and (just to  
rub it in, again, 12 years later) has to make yet another statement
in front of the international community about how we risen above the  
shackles of Apartheid. We know this!!!!

I wish they would god damn get off it, and just work to make this a  
better country than what it is. Sorry, I know this list is not the  
place,
this is just a fellow SEC-driver who is feeling very threatened and  
depressed by his country today.

Kivendren, as an Indian, I guess you feel sort-of half-way between  
all this. The hate throes of our government are targeted against
whites specifically, but all the discriminating policies like BEE  
(Black Employment Equity) also do not favour indians, but specifically
only blacks... From your signature, however, I deduce that you work  
for a BEE company though.

*sigh* Most of the time I manage to not let all this get to me, and  
just enjoy life. Anyway, this list helps me better appreciate one of the
aspects of my life enjoyment :-)


kind regards, and returning soon with more SEC-questions.
