At least one mount was broken when he bought it. He isn’t that kind of kid. He knows that car is very important for his survival now that he is on his own.
I figured a $3k car would probably run rough and do all sorts of shit. Didn’t know about broken motor mounts. Apparently the new fangled ones have big, hollow rubber cushions that deteriorate and burst.
Compare to the mounts on my C2 which are almost indestructible.
