Differential means difference between something.
If terms of a cars drivetrain, it's the difference between the power split between the driven wheels.
There has to be a difference so cars can corner as one wheel must spin faster than the other to get around a corner.
But in this case, differential appears to mean the difference between reality and fantasy.1 -
Oh now come on, this is just getting silly.
Yaris, then looking a cheap car for a long commute.
Then bought a Porsche for the long commute (jump in budget from a few thousand to over £40K)
Now miraculously. you've pulled an M4 Comp out of thin air.
Why arent threads like these pulled? Wasting peoples time and it just affects the credibility of the forum.

The car is imaginary, just like the £40K Porsche 911 was imaginary that he bought on a whim instead of a diesel Peugeot 406.Stateofart said:
