Create account/Sounds like "kah" (as in "car") + "CHEE" (as in "cheek") + "loh" (as in "loan")/
A beat-up old car that barely holds together, rattling at every traffic light and leaking smoke from somewhere. In Uruguay and Argentina the cachilo is a humble but beloved vehicle. It looks terrible but somehow keeps running, and that earns it a certain affection.
“He rolls up in that clunker that smokes from every panel and rattles at every light.”
“I bought a secondhand beater and it lasted me over ten years.”

Gastar
To tease or playfully mess with a friend, usually with jokes or light pranks. In Argentina and Uruguay, "gastarte" is almost a love language among friends. If they tease you, it means you belong.
