If anyone is interested.. It is not really a problem to buy a vintage car in Italy, you only need one trailer. In addition, the purchase contract, cancellation certificate and the Italian data sheet. I bought a 1A Fiat Topolino from Udine. We agreed with the Google mobile phone translator. Since today the Italian is a genuine Bayer. Approval passed. TÜV without Fahler. TÜV with H report was no problem, In the year 1939 you do not even need a warning blinker. At the beginning I will stay close. 75 km/h top speed. So on the highway we will probably never see each other. I am happy like a schnitzel. I have already driven 3-4 km, it is very exciting. I would be happy if there were more Topolino drivers in the greater Munich area.

Hello ! My uncle brought a Camaro from Austria years ago (think year 76 or something). He was standing around now years, now he wanted to finish it and register it. The Camaro had English papers with him at that time, in Austria he was not allowed. Unfortunately he no longer has this English document thing – and he can not find the purchase contract anymore. Now the question: Is it necessary to have the English papers at all? My buddy once had an old K he then sent a request to the KBA, which then confirmed after a waiting period that the beetle was not reported as stolen. With the note he is then to the TÜV and the registration office – and the beetle was finished (at least approval technical…). Is it useful to say here simply one has lost the papers (without the hint that it was English papers…). Think that would be a lot of work I would like to ask you a question about this, because a German official probably gets the panic. Nobody knew the history of the beetle at that time, maybe he was allowed to go abroad before? At least nobody asked – and even if- how should my buddy know? The barn should be torn down and nobody should know exactly about the beetle. I ask for advice on how to do this the easiest, without a horde of amnesty. Thank you & Greetings Kababus

Hi, I’ve been driving a very well-preserved Golf 1 GX with 70 hp for almost half a year now, the car had when I bought it already a 60th complete chassis with 7×13 Mattig Sportstahl rims on it, so the already looked pretty horny. When I bought it I was really excited about driving something that you see very rarely nowadays. Well at the beginning I wanted to leave the car original but it got boring with the time, so clear glass would follow s, black rear lights, supersprint system from Kat, open air filter etc. Well now eater low, wide and loud …. in some sense “disfigured”. What do you think about old cars to tune about ?

Hello dear ones. I’ve been working on the topic of restoration of vintage cars more recently, since I inherited one a short time ago. Now I’m not sure if a restoration would be worthwhile at all, or if I really want it. I came across this forum when I was looking for it. My vintage car is a Mercedes-Benz W110 190DC. Now it’s hard to assess whether the restoration is worth it, because it’s no longer in the very best condition. he might give someone a tip for me, where and if I should have the old car repaired again? Love greet you, Tija93

Hello guys, I have a question. I bought a Rolls Royce in England and since my wife got a circle, I have to sell, everything is no problem, a buyer has already melted, but the seller wants to have the following. I am supposed to bring the car here through the TüV (no problems) but he wants to steal the car already registered, with license plates etc. The problem is he lives in another federal state, and I can not allow a car to drive their taxes I don’t know how to fix it.

Dear experts, we would like to buy a Austin Healey. Unfortunately, except that it is a cool car, nothing about it. It should be a classic MK II/MK III (or which would you prefer) with spoke rims and everything around it. Who can say where you can get such a car best, which year of construction is the best (Is there actually new editions with BMW engine?), what you should pay attention to, what a good model in about cost etc. pp. I would be grateful for tips and tips. d All kinds of suggestions

Hello I bought an old horn at the Flomarkt today which looks like the Ford t model and also sounds like it. Unfortunately, there is no type designation on it…. Could I legally build it into my car? Could I build it in if it had a type plate but really was of the time?

In the current issue 11/2013 of the AUTO BILD CLASSIC engine oils were tested for classic cars. The result is simply frightening for classic car lovers. Only 4 products are “good”, among them Liqui Moly (www.liqui-moly.de) and ******. What do you think of these results? *** Contribution shortened due to suspicion of self-promotion! – Johnes, MT-Moderation ***

Servus, I have had a BMW E9 2.5 CS Bj.74 for a few days. Unfortunately, the car has never been cared for, neither optically nor technically, but the body is surprisingly well preserved for this series. At the moment, the electrics, the brakes and small maintenance work on the carburettors on the plan. Can you possibly recommend me a dealer/shop where I can buy “priced” parts? According to research on the internet, the quoted prices are very high … Have you got a picture of the BMW uploaded, if desired also gladly more ! Thanks, greeting Maurizio

Hello. The BMW M 535 i has only 185 hp with Kat but without Kat 218 hp (!). That’s a huge difference. – If I buy one now with Kat, then it is enough to exchange the exhaust with Kat for one without Kat or there must also be changes to the motor electronics, so that nothing “mistakes” ? Thank you. Greetings, Thorsten
