  • Car rentals or prefer parachuting ?

    Hello, we are on holiday for about 20 days on September 8, 2020. Thanks to corona, the already underground bus connections in Alicante are even more colabbed, and taxis cost more than individual organs, we are now looking for a rental car. But the prices also make me puke here. Problem: 1) I am 2.03m tall. I fit only in a handful of cars, Opel Mokka, Golf (+) Sportsvan, Opel Crossland X, Renault Capture. But now is constantly getting from a “or similar” Why can’t you give me clear information, after all, they have to know if their car is rented at the time, or not. I have now written to some car rental companies with full hope, my question has been answered 0. Therefore, I just ask about your experiences: How many times did you rent a car on the Internet and then it did not correspond to the vehicle pictured? Please enter the company … 2) with my tender 24.7 years, bin ic h not yet 25 and constantly get 80 – 250 Euro extra fees beaten. In addition, there are fees for automatic vehicles, as I can only drive with automatic (slightly). 3) Does someone know a company that does not want a 1000 Euro deposit? I have the terrible feeling that I will never see the coal again. Besides, I still don’t have a ‘real credit card’. At present it looks price-wise with 600 Euro alone for the rental car incl. young driving fee, + petrol, + insurance (from leihwagenversicherung.de) + security deposit… so about 1,000 euros… parachutes only cost half. Otherwise I am grateful for all tips “or similar” …

  • What is the meaning of the second measure compacting?

    I just get to know the working steps of a four-stroke motor. I didn’t quite understand the meaning of the 2 measure compression. When compacting, the piston moves to the upper dead point. The volume decreases, which increases the pressure and temperature of the air-fuel mixture. What is the meaning of this now? As far as I understand this, the fuel is present in the air-fuel mixture in liquid state of the aggregate. The rising temperature of the mixture changes the f Loose fuel can be converted into gas and gas can be burned better, which is important for the following 3 measure work. Did I understand that correctly?

  • Brake scrubbers

    Hello, have problems with my Lexus SC430, Bj 2006. When braking from 60 – 40 km/h relatively strong vibrating in the steering wheel??!!! you can literally feel the unrest in the front brakes/wheels, even after repeated repetition, when I only step slightly on the brake is little to nothing to feel, only with stronger braking this lack occurs. Wheel bearings are new tires as new, several times balanced, tyre pressure 2.5 bar all around brakes before 4000Km renewed and so-called “deadened” De r SC430 is known for its “sensitivity” on the front axle. What disturbs me is the vibration in this speed range from 60-40, whereby also light brake vibration occurs from 120 to 90, but not as strong as in the 60-40 range.

  • Which large scooter

    Hey guys, I’d like to buy either the Suzuki Burgman 650, SW-T 600 or the BMW C650 GT in a few months and I hope you can help me a bit.. I’ve read a lot, looked at some tests and watched numerous videos about the scooters. Mostly private videos about YouTube. I haven’t tried any of the scooters since I’m about to make my appearance. With the scooter I want to go to work (25 km along the outskirts), with the girlfriend to the shoppe From Dortmund to the Sauerland, to the Eifel, high to Münsterland and possibly even to the Alps. Nice weather tours and pleasant cruising, but with plenty of steam for overtaking etc.. The price is not the decisive argument. The only thing that bothers me about the BMW is the chain. How do you see it? Vllt. can give me a few experiences or tips. I can’t get any information at all. Thanks in advance. and greetings Michael

  • Unfortunately, no US Car anymore

    So dear US Car community! I’m driving an e38. Since the topic of custom cars has clearly gained in importance in recent years, the TÜV unfortunately makes me interested in the US Cars: 78 Eldo Biarritz, Buick Riviera 3.8 SC, Thunderbird 4th Gen, Mark VIII 96-98 a dash through the bill due to lack of part reviews. Material reports are no longer available. I had a 2 hour conversation here in Augsburg. And a Camaro or Fire bird or Mustang, Corvette just doesn’t really like me. My LT1 is gone again. AND I don’t want to have a car anymore from the STANGE FAHREN! For my e38 there’s everything for small money: horny chrome rims, deeper laying, winch suspensions, plasmatachos etc. and with the future performance increase of my 6ender I have to have the gearbox reinforced, but I also have to do that with all US cars except TH 350 or 400, only unfortunately then the stupid import duty and VAT come on it. which makes the whole customizing almost priceless. But will continue to follow the forum

  • Piaggio NRG Power 50 DD 2T recommended?

    Hello, as already mentioned in the title, I would like to know if the Piaggio NRG is recommended. Are the 250€ well laid out or are there better alternatives? Yamaha Aerox is clearly more expensive with 3000€, but also has a 4 clock injector motor. which scooter would you recommend? what is there for alternative? I drive also in winter, so the engine should be fit even at temperatures around 0 degrees. My current Honda SFX 50 from 1995 jumps even at -10°C at the first occurs immediately are the current scooters just as good in quality? Thank you

  • Company car financing – what closing rate

    All right, I’m going to get a Mercedes EQS (show car, run about 5T km) as a new business car (I’m an independent lawyer) for about 120,000 EUR gross and I’m currently cutting the financing with my financial advisor. I’m not going to run the financing through the Mercedes Bank because I get a high-rise interest rate from my financial advisor. The problem is that the 3-way financing is eliminated, i.e. I can’t get the car to a Intuitively, I would take half the purchase price, i.e. EUR 60T, because one assumes a useful life of 6 years and the car should halve in value after 3 years. However, I was advised to take a higher final rate (70T – 80T) because the vehicles are much more stable than the useful life assumes. However, I was advised to take a higher final rate (70T – 80T) because the vehicles are much more stable than the service life. This would have the advantage that I would have a much better liquidity each month. My question: how would you proceed when selecting the final rate, if you take into account that there is no guaranteed withdrawal from Mercedes? Has anyone had similar experiences? What else should I pay attention to? LG

  • Auto return after runtime – question about rims

    I have a question about leasing return and rims, but first the problem description: I have at least two places on all 4 rims with a notch or a scratch; all on the outer ring of the inside of the rim. All damages are about 1-2 cm long and I have no idea where they come from, because I never (knowably) got stuck somewhere and which occur at very different distances to each other and also on all 4. Is only at the last change Since there is a risk that my dealer could charge me for the complete set of rims when I return it, I think now of a rim repair. I am still just about to get offers but as I heard it is less than 150€ per rim not to do anything; in some cases it is even 250€ per rim. Should the repair cost me nearly as much as a completely new set of rims I would of course buy new ones. When I buy the new set, it comes from the fact that they are currently properly discounted by the manufacturer himself and that the dealer would most likely charge me the original price. Besides, I would have the old rims that I can sell cheaper. What do you think about this project? Would you do it like that?Now the real question: If I ordered the same original rims directly from the manufacturer and had them mounted on it and kept the damaged ones and sold cheaper I mean, tires may also have to be exchanged and they are not the same but equivalent. As I said, logic doesn’t have to be a problem, but what is it like in practice? Nowadays, everything can be and you really have to be careful. Thank you! EDIT: Just seen that there is a leasing forum above. If that’s what a moderator sees, it’s not a problem. t – like to move there!

  • Porsche Turbo 911 color?

    Hello together, would have liked to throw a question into the room, how does a 911 Turbo convertible look like in cream colors? Leather and roof brown?! Can’t that at all or is that something else? I’m very unreliable, just didn’t want to order one now and then I’ll puke it?! I can’t see it from black, white or brown anymore, silver isn’t 😉 Thanks for a little help … Greetings
