Something died with the Volvo; the battery is suspect, with the positive terminal being highly corroded. I have purchased a Haynes service manual and I'll be working on that shortly.
The Beetle needed new tires, has a coolant leak (which may or may not be fixing itself) and has, in all probability, a broken motor mount which will hopefully be fixed tomorrow.
It doesn't matter about the Volvo, because the DMV fucked up my registration and I need to get that redone. But I'm not going to be able to, because I just got a letter yesterday stating that State Farm is cancelling my insurance because I haven't been licensed for 36 consecutive months prior to issuance of the insurance - something they COULD HAVE FUCKING ASKED ME BEFORE THEY GRANTED ME INSURANCE.
I hope all the insurance companies have identical rules. That way, I won't be able to get a car registered for ANOTHER THREE YEARS!
