  • Successor of the Z4 project E89

    Successor of the Z4 project E89 Sounds very interesting! “Driving dynamic tidbits can be presented – the compartments range from the winding stabilization to the electrohydraulic brake? Hello! 4 liters of disel with 449 hp?! Madness! “The wider track creates space for the V8 which is to be used in the top model. The engine range should look like this: • 2.0-l-DI four-cylinder, 185 hp • 2.5-l-DI six-cylinder, 231 hp • 3.0-l-DI turbo six-cylinder, 321 hp • 4.0-l-DI-V8-M engine, 449 hp. Why the 6 cylinders only with 231 hp? Is this the “old 3.0i machine?!”?

  • manual or SMG in 3liter Z4

    hello zettis, I have to get annoyed again. until middle january I have to know finally whether I should get a hand-operated or SMG knitted in. (every other thing is clarified………….. ) what are the opinions about this? tend to be hand-operated at the moment, because I don’t really think about automatics, at least as far as sports cars are concerned. I know that SMG is not really automatic, but nevertheless. What speaks for SMG and what against? especially with regard to the r travel services. thank you & mfg ps @verena: at the first aprilWE I’m probably not in D

  • Something different: Zetti and family growth

    For the current occasion a question in the round: Who of you shares his zetti with offspring? Short story about it: I was with the recently and asked for child seats, which at the same time fit in our Z4 AND in our 5er (Touring of course ) which we get soon. Answer: Isofix child seat from BMW is very expensive (about 500 €) and is only allowed for BMW. Switching into other car is then impossible. So for me Isofix would not necessarily be in Fra Ge. Then a problem with the Z4: with a child seat on the passenger seat the passenger airbags must of course be deactivated. And now the hammer: this is not even possible with Bj. before the middle of 2004. No, the airbags have to be “physically” deactivated, the belt shoulder has to be removed – the conversion would take about 3 hours, the rear-fitting also. If you take a “normal passenger” with you, of course, this can not even be retrofitted so easily, which then drives without airbag We will definitely not separate from Zetti, another car with space is also there. What did BMW think about it? Is the Zetti really an ego car? Even our Alfa 147 year 2002 has a simple passenger airbag deactivation with the ignition key. I find that pretty…. What do you think about it? Do you have a better solution? Greetings Prian

  • Experience with Navi in the new Vitara

    Hello guys, who has experiences with the “tollen” Navi in the new Vitara. the part is the last Heuler. Operation cumbersome per touchscreen you can often press it wurst yesterday in the middle of the Polish Pampas once again total failure from the Navi did not come either. Only the next day. The thing also annoys because it sends you through the smallest Käffer instead of leaving you on the “not locked or not built up” main route, although the fastest route is entered. Who knows if you another 2din Navi can install itself (except the pioneer praised by Suzuki, overpriced and outdated)

  • Compact / small up to 15,000€

    Hi, I’m done with my studies and I’m looking for a compact car (possibly also small car) for a maximum of 15,000€ (first car). Since I don’t have a job yet, I don’t know exactly how much I’m going to drive, but I suspect it’s too little for a diesel. Requirements are often highway/highway (up to 120/130 km/h, 60-100km) and possibly every day to the job (more short distance as I want to move towards the apartment). Air conditioning/automatic is a must. In the price region also EU6, preferably vacuum cleaner, to the 100hp. BT and MP3/USB/AUX would be nice to have both. Tempomat would be happy, but is probably rather rare in the above-mentioned classes. Location is Greater Stuttgart, with a “new car” a longer journey to pick up 200km would be no problem. With the vehicle I am relatively open. In general I find Golf nice, but because of the many problems with the VW (and the TSI engines) The following cars are recommended (please correct if I am wrong): The Corsa is in a similar price region as the Focus, although a little better equipped (for a little less horsepower and lighter). What do you think in general? If I have misunderstood something, please correct it.

  • Commuter car hybrid with E license plate

    Hello guys, since I have a new job in Düsseldorf from the first of January I have to commute from Aachen. Since the situation with a diesel is too risky for me I thought of a hybrid vehicle. What do you think of the idea I ask for opinions Thank you for your help

  • From the factory acceleration under 6 seconds for about 20,000€

    As the title already says, I am looking for a vehicle that has proper power.Best the 0-100 has under 6 sec or properly permeated. It is also added that the vehicle should have relatively good equipment. Besides, the car should also have under 175ktm on the clock. I spontaneously think the bmw 650 and 335. I think the passat CC would also fit.Do you have any other suggestions? Greeting Erdolo

  • SUV or similar searched for 5000 EUR

    Hello friends, the father of my best friend is looking for a car, his wish is an SUV or something similar. He is just over 60 years old and doesn’t really drive a lot. He simply wants a solid vehicle which does not cause the biggest problems even in the used age and thus creates very high follow-up costs. His wishes and specifications: – SUV or similar – best just under 5000 EUR – petroler (he drives under 10tkm a year) – no monstrous fuel consumption – if possible less than 150 tkm mileage – if possible max. 10 years old The only extras he would like to have electric window lifters and a climate does not have to be automatic. If you need more information just ask otherwise I thank you for all the suggestions.

  • Peugeot 308SW or Opel Astra Kombi?

    Hello, I am currently driving a Peugeot 307 small car (BJ 2004). The interior is huge and partly much larger than some combination. Unfortunately, the clutch is through and 130€ I don’t want to put into the car anymore. Ergo I don’t have a car at the moment and need one. Wish: BJ from 2015, equipment Navi, camera, parking aid and at best Panorama roof. Price up to approx. 17,000€ We were then looking for a car, as we would like to have children sometime in the future. Ann was then only for Mondeo / Insignia / 508 until I got up that the huge ships are. Parking search then probably not so fun 😉 Now we arrived at the Opel Astra or Peugeot 308 SW. However, I find that these with a certain equipment (pronounced camera) then cost around the 15,000-17,000€. For the money I get an Insignia or Mondeo with much better equipment; same year of construction. The 308 SW seems – at least in the forum – rather anfalli g to be flawed. What would you recommend us to do?

  • Insurance as a novice driver without parental bonus

    Tach, I’ve already read a few Freds here and I thought I’d sign up now, because it’s probably going to be this far with me soon with the first car. So get ready for a lot of questions from a guy who has absolutely 0 idea of cars. (My parents never really had one – so it comes that I didn’t notice anything about technology compared to friends etc.) I try to avoid asking questions that have already been answered. The thing is that I’m in front of you. Obviously in April I hold the “Lapp” in my hands and will be in May 18. By 01.08.2013 I absolutely need my own car, because I need this for the training. (I don’t attach any importance to frills – A working 1000€ sheet metal companion is enough for 1-2 years, I think ) Now I have as I already wrote no parents on which a second car could be registered. The only one would be my stepbrother (mid-30, has already insured a second car of woman, lives in d The question is, however, whether this is worth it at all. He would be as far as I know then yes policyholder and I the holder – right? If not, I must enjoy the luxury well or badly and take the liability insurance on my name as a beginner. What about the 1.7? How about the downgrading on 1.1 then? Let’s go from 120€ per month – Can you guess how far this would change – so that I know if a possible return to the same city is possible. ckdaten would be worth it at all? Maan so many question marks! I’m really sorry :S But I’m already thanking you in advance and hope you can give me a little bit of clarity.
