Hello to the round, I’m just looking for a well-kept 116er between 1975 and 1979. Does anyone have experiences about the model here and can give me some basic tips? I mean less the maintenance and fuel costs, but rather something in the direction of “possible increase in value of certain models and colors / interior equipment”. So far I consider the 280er than 280SE the most reasonable solution. The engine with the later overhauled injection system and then 177 HP. Thanks for Your tips! Greetings, Filou

Good evening Oldtimer friends, on Saturday I stumbled on the roof floor in a dark corner over an axle. (see photos). my first (not unfounded) conjecture was DKW or Goggo. but that doesn’t seem to be true. Renault is also a hot candidate. the letters and numbers on the part don’t bring me any further. someone knows which vehicle the axle belongs to. I don’t bring a NOS part that probably dates back to the 50s/60s. simply knock into the ton.

Two years ago I bought a 106 Xsi from 1995 as a cheap first car and had to invest almost 800 francs directly for the MFK because of welding work in the wheel box VR, the seller had said that the left one was already made and the right one is good, which was unfortunately not correct. I was directly intimidated by further rust. Now I did not drive a meter last winter when salt was on the road, and had still had a relatively large amount of flight rust under the The car was removed from me as well as I could, then covered with hammerite and some color, 100% was not possible because of the conditions. Lots of rust was in places with cavities, but I could not look at the inside of course, but only outside. I also used some cavity protection at the end. Now to the questions: How much fear should I have of the salt? Basically I can also do without the car in winter, and the second car of my father fa (Unfortunately only about 100km of e-range in winter), but of course I prefer to drive my small car. I will go to the mountains for that, I am still thinking about whether I really want to do this to my car, or whether I should go by train. How long does salt really stay on the road? Does it have to rain properly, or is it enough if it is dry again for a few days? In Zurich the snow rarely stays longer than a few days. Which is also provisional, if it is zb at night under 0 degrees, which is often the case. How bad is salt when it is dry? Basically, it simply makes me wonder how you deal with this topic. I have already seen that there are some posts about it, but there are usually 20 pages written and very quickly people get caught in other topics, which have nothing to do with the question. Therefore thank you for your opinions Tim many thanks for the information.

Hello, I am currently restoring a very rare moped car, an Allcars Charly from Italy. The Mechanic components are now working, now it should go to the electrics… Information or even spare parts are unfortunately hardly to be found for this rare vehicle. There is no schematic! The part of which I think it was the controller / rectifier is not much left. A manufacturer or similar can not be recognized either. For this reason I wanted a uni I have no idea what to look for. Correct dimensioning(amps)? Regulator or rectifier? or both? Then in a component or separate? How to connect, cable? etc… Built is a 50ccm 2stroke moped motor from motori morini with out-of-print ignition coil and flylight magnetic ignition According to the operating instructions, the motor delivers 75w, according to other Charly owners at 6v!!! The board system in general, however, runs completely with 12v!! A battery is provided in the vehicle! (How should that be enough for light, horn, windscreen wiper etc.?!) Do you have an idea which controller / rectifier I need there? Or both? If you still need information please let us know. Thanks already in advance! I look forward to your contributions.
