  • Jeep Wrangler 2007 – petrol or diesel?

    Greetings, actually it was clear to me that my first wrangler should become a diesel: more power below, cheaper fuel, less consumption Now my current dealer told me something about diesel: – takes longer to get warm, much short distance therefore the danger excessive wear, soot particle filters increases etc. – more expensive in insurance, more expensive in the tax, so if you drive relatively little (< 15 tkm) the saving effect is gone by cheap fuel. Power on the bottom is right, but a strong gasoline engine with automatics brings similar performance. Now I'm insecure ;-( But you probably have something to say about it, right? Thank you!

  • Does Nissan Patrol 2.8 TurboD GR do what?

    After the search has not really helped me so quickly, I ask straight away: I ate a fool on the above-mentioned model, more precisely on this one. Sounds wonderful. Also looks wonderful (on the pictures anyway). General: What to hold of the patrol? Can anyone tell me how the Nissan internal designation for the model is? (y60?? or so …) Experiences, praise hymns, scolding tirades – all desired! Thank you for your help! PS: I’ve already written to the seller for details, but I’d also like to ask uninvolved professionals lg, fibrile

  • Which offroader is suitable for Ukraine?

    Dear Offroader, I will start from January with an agricultural farm in Ukraine and need a cheap offroader. I am overwhelmed. Which should I buy: Suzuki, Opel, lada, Toyota? Can you recommend me for the following requirements: – price up to 3000€ – must drive a little on field, and very much on Ukrainian asphalt and gravel roads (with many deep holes) – very low consumption, since I often want to drive home a year (2000km) – preferably Be nziner, which I can convert to gas – 80hp is enough – trailer coupling for small trailers Thank you very much and see you soon, Tim.

  • BfGoodrich Mud Terrain replica

    Moin, have seen last a replica of a BF Goodrich Mud terrain. Couldn’t keep me from which manufacturer that was. The guys have been traveling to Morocco with it. Do any of you know this replica tire or a comparable one, which is not so expensive from the price? This replica probably costs something about 50 € per piece. For answers I would be grateful. Greeting Carsten

  • Offroaders for cold regions?

    Hello together, I’m looking for an offroader who “sustains” very cold temperatures. With hot temperatures I have experiences, only with the opposite not. The field of application is ~ -35 to -45 °C, so that a diesel is already out of the near selection. Land is light to medium, also not excessive charge. Maybe someone already has experience in this direction? I am unfortunately there at the moment a bit planless and perplexed…. Thanks already supplement: budget h we plan ~ 35 – 40k Euro – so there will certainly be nothing new, but rather something used.

  • Polternoise Range Rover Sport TDV8

    A question in the round: Who has experienced similar things already? About 13,000 km after delivery of my Range Rover Sport TDV8 began to become noticeable in the front axle polter noises. These arise when running over channel covers, floor unevenness etc. The workshop commissioned with the warranty indicated that this is normal with the TDV8, resp. with all vehicles with dynamic-response-system. The noises are caused by the storage of the hydraulic stabilizers and can be The Stabis are stored in pressed rubber bushings, which obviously get too much game at an early stage. Somehow you know about older cars, where noises also occur due to aging of the bushings and the driving comfort suffers. So hold someone similar experiences and how did he deal with them? CR

  • Jeep Grand Cherokee or VW Touareg???

    Hello guys, I’m currently looking for a new car and it’s supposed to be an SUV. I’m about to decide between 2 models… Once the VW Touareg and the Jeep Grand Cherokee. I like both of them very well and are identical from the equipment, first registration and mileage. First registration is in 2008 and the mileage is at both approx. 15,000km. Both diesels. Have you had positive or negative experiences with one of the two models? Which car is the result of Is the VW service better than that of Jeep or Chrysler? What would you take and why? I am happy about your answers and hope you can help me!? Thank you Honso82
