Anyone tried this?
Looks like quite a relaxing game might also be useful for those who are not savvy with a spanner.
Yea, doubt it includes stripped bolts and the like but still looks fun.
Then again I have different tastes as I quite like fishing games

Does it include customers who insist they've done nothing wrong but you find a set of their keys in the cylinder when you open it up?

It seems to take a lead from Car Mechanic Simulator which is reasonably interesting - I've played the last two iterations. For anyone who hasn't they're basically virtual jigsaws with bells on.
The car one has a lot of fans so it's easy to do things like replace all the made-up maker/model names with their real world, copyright infringing equivalents  Jumping from cars to bikes though... while similar the bike version is quirky and annoying and only has a small selection of very American style bikes.
My Summer Car is the real deal. Without modding you have to eyeball all the bolt sizes

Saw a review of this a while back and it looked really fun. When I was a teenager a mate had a (original) mini that was made of random bits of other minis, and was constantly breaking down, the points needed regular sanding, and one of the engine mounts was dodgy which lead to the exhaust mount shearing off every few miles. Which meant you had to wait for the exhaust to cool, then fix it back on with a wire coat hanger (he kept a pile on the back seat). There was no money or equipment for proper fixes so everything was bodged. The whole thing was a pain in the arse, but at the same time I've got really happy memories of that period, and My Summer Car really seems to capture that, somehow.

When I was 17 my friend had his first car, a Mk3 fiesta that he bought for £50 from his uncle (who had planned to scrap it). It was a complete POS made of more rust than metal, but we absolutely loved it.
It had the most ridiculous sound system (bright green sub woofer, component door speakers, and 6x9's cut in to the parcel shelf), and we used to take it to all of the local "street race" spots on a Saturday night. Great fun for teens.
Anyway, I remember one of the engine mounts failed and the whole gearstick would move about 8 inches backwards when accelerating. When we looked underneath we could see the engine lift as we engaged the clutch with the handbrake on and the car in first.
We did what any sensible 17 year olds would do, I laid on the floor in front of the car whilst my friend put the car in gear and let the clutch up slightly.... yes, trusting a 20 year old hand brake to hold the car and not run me over.
Then, trusting both the 20 year old handbrake and the shagged clutch to hold out, I literally passed my arm through the gap between the engine and mount to pull my sisters skipping rope through the gap, then lashed up a shitty skipping rope engine mount to stop the engine from moving.
It worked too, we must have done two thousand miles like that before it was eventually scrapped.
