  • The spoilt of choice…300c Touring, Magnum or yet Nitro?…and what engine?

    Hi Because of family growth I have to switch to a car with large trunk and roof racks.Kids , dog and suitcases should fit in already.An Ami should be there already … My favourites : Chrysler 300C Touring , Dodge Magnum , Dodge Nitro or Dodge Yourney … I tend to 300 C Touring and to Magnum , but what motorization ? My questions : What positive and negative experiences have you made with the engines 2.7 – 3.5 – 5.7 and 3.0 CRD (acceleration , Consumption,etc.) and which would you recommend? Do the gasoline engines have a gas system well or can there be problems (gas system recommended) ? Is there a difference between 300C Touring and Magnum (except the optics) ? 300C Touring or Magnum ? I am grateful for every tip and report…

  • My Ami Dream

    Hello! I’m new here, good evening! I have a question, how that is always like with the new ones… I’ve dreamt of an American car for a long time and this dream is to come true soon I’m currently driving a Ford Mondeo 1.8l 2000 year of construction, which I would like to give my wife, since she has got a new job. Recently I was at a car import dealer and I’ve made myself smart. I’ve been suggested odge Charger, Dodge Magnum (both with the 2.7 liter machine) and the Chrysler 300c 3.0Liter. But because I did not want to spend more than 1200€ and then these cars were a little too expensive for me I looked at the Camaro 2000 3.7, Firebird 1999 3.4 and the Mustang 2000 3.8. Now I have read that these cars have not such a good acceleration and there is the point. I am more interested in the “top versions” like the Camaro z28, but I find that the car is quite difficult to I don’t know if you can get a car like this for 1200€?! Or do you have any other suggestions? I use the car as a Daily ,and it shouldn’t be older than 15 years for me and as I said, it should have a bit more pressure. I don’t want to race with it ,only I would like to be able to put down a nice traffic light start. Oh yes, before I forget the car should have automatic at any time. LG

  • Markings of paragraph madness!

    Hello, I am bursting with rage. I have today changed a stretch limousine from Munich to a neighbouring district with 3 letters. Up to the registration plate no problem either. Because the registration office was able to present me new regulations, which state that there is NO issue of motorcycle registration marks for cars anymore! Except only oldtimers and vehicles, which are already registered in the district. Alternative? A full size number plate with self-illuminating sign at the back. t: 150EUR. Apart from the fact that this looks totally shitty, when my license plate holder is empty, and for this the bumper with a license plate is posteriert, I get a decent attachment (adaptation to the bumper) cost of a total of almost 600EUR! I believe myself place immediately what! I should now attach this stupid full size license plate to the round bumper of a TownCar and put power supply from the lid down. That can’t be! Of course, the 355mm license plates were worn. The very short license plates were not available after the vehicle was measured and the license plate holder is probably 2cm too narrow. Does anyone have an idea how to proceed? The vehicle has to drive orders on weekends, and I certainly can’t find a workshop today that will build this self-lit shit properly on me…

  • Passenger door does not open ??? Cadillac STS 05

    Halli Hello, I have been driving a Cadillac STS Bj. 2005 (4,6 L V8) for some time now and have the problem that the passenger door is no longer open from the outside. Unfortunately there is no lock on this side, so that I can now only make the doors mechanically from the inside on. Do I hear the door handle, how the actuator unlocks the rear door, but nothing happens at the front. Can anyone give me a hint what is going on and what could be broken? Was today i n the workshop around the corner (not brand specific) but they don’t dare. The car is too special. But think about this problem you can not only have with a Cadillac!!! Many thanks already for your help :-)) LG

  • Dodge Charger 1973 Decode engine identifier

    On the Internet there is a Dodge Charger. I wanted to compare in the first step whether the chassis number and engine number match each other. I just don’t want to decipher the engine number. Can someone help me and break it down? I think it’s on the picture: 8698830-440-8 Is this an engine number at all? Advertisement:https://suchen.mobile.de/…/details.html?… Opinions are welcome, just remain polite. I have mixed feelings whether this is a serious ang ebot is. I’ve been informed many times about Amis, but I’m still a newcomer. MfG Carl

  • I’m new and have so many questions?

    Hello together! Have so many frigs and I hope you can help me. And I’m not laughing am a woman and ask many stupid questions 🙂 So, I fell in love with the Chevy Blazer K5. At the best vintage 70 – 80. Would then like to have a gas insert installed later. Have now seen in Germany that the things would be really super expensive to go away and then screw some more. Now I have thought about impotting one. What do I have to pay attention to when buying? Can I use the Internet I’ve already seen a few of them where you can do it all completely. Are they called different or also K5. Still a very stupid question …. If of course I want to have one that is quite high. Can I still pull my horse trailer with it. But then the AK doesn’t have to be higher or not? Of course I have a friend who likes to screw and also my Bla many questions and I hope you can help me. I am already so crazy about the car that I would like to realize this room from the blazer from the USA? Dear greeting Kirsten

  • Kit Car… Import / Cost / Company Discontinuation…

    Hello! Unfortunately I did not find a suitable forum, so I try here I might want to buy a kit car… The British sports car Ultima GTR, that is, Ultima Can-Am with the LS-7 engine with 650 hp from Amerspeed. Auto: http://www.ultimasports.co.uk/gtr/ or as Can Am: http://www.ultimasports.co.uk/canam/ Motor: http://www.amerspeed.com/scgi-bin/showultimaengines.cgi I would like to ask a few questions, in this forum I am sure who has a car i So apart from the kit price and the price for the engine (due to low dollar and pound price is the opportunity cheap), then at least shipping comes on top, and as far as I got with the German VAT? or the VAT applicable in the country where you import? I guess from the German VAT (i.e. 19%). Does it even matter more? Any import costs / fees or something? And then I would be interested in something. The advantages are clear: I would have been able to save the entire VAT, and also to deduct operating costs / fuel etc., and would have had the costs as an expenditure in the company, so I do not have to pay out the money privately and tax it to buy the car. Sure, 1% new car regulation would then apply, but that would also be ok. Does anyone have tips for me? I would of course rather buy the car via the GmbH than pr Implications

  • K5 Blazer, where to grease?

    Hello, I’ve done a new grease press and want to grease my blazer. Where anywhere do I have to look for lubricating nipples? A friend also advised me to break the blow springs apart with a chisel and also grease, then the leaf springs are quieter. Is that okay? Merci, XXL Greetings, Vaxe…
