Vote in the survey and express praise or criticism as a comment. We have a direct connection with many manufacturers and they read on MOTOR-TALK.

Made in Japan cars (1997-2005)
Hello dear Motor-Talk community, I did not find a suitable subforum for my question. I ask about cars that were built in Japan and sold in Germany regardless of which brand. Is there a way to find out if and when a certain model was produced in Japan? I know that the VIN code indicates where a specific car was produced. I would like to know, however, which models were produced in Japan and in what period of time.

Works vs VW Scirocco 2.0 TSI
The Scirocco 2.0 TSI ( 200 HP) also has no chance in the field of driving fun and dynamics against the works according to the current test of the AUTO road traffic. “The Mini hits the Scirocco – … It drives more greedily and literally sticks on the road. The Scirocco can not keep up with it completely.” “Zornig he roars into the test, pushes around the cones and makes clear at the first meters who the boss is.” “For the same money, VW delivers more car, Mini more emotion” True, the VW has more space. But I like to whistle on it, I pass in and that’s enough. I want a mini and not an omnibus. Only the seats in the Scirocco should be better. Here I see the potential for improvement with the Mini in fact, if you don’t want to grab the Recaros right away. If one of the Mini reads here by chance, please a little bit more side stop and a extendable thigh rest! If I am already there, please leave the Quatsch with the Runflats and coloured straps would be nice as well!

White mud on the measuring rod
Hello, I asked you a question. I had my GM smallbblock completely renewed. changed after about 400 miles of oil. before the week there was also enough oil in it, but I had already discovered oil sludge – which I didn’t think was bad, because it can be created by short distance trips – at least I looked again after the oil and had to find out that the oil level was under the minimum and white sludge was on the measuring rod. oil loss I didn’t have any more, that’s relatively safe. what now? oil refill? new oil change? besides, today for the first time a red light on the rotary meter has lit (in accelerating) what does the questions say? questions about questions may help me. thank you in advance.

Help with US-Car project needed!
Hello together, I need urgent help with my project. My 74 ́er Chevy has been imported 91 to Germany and has not yet been registered with the TÜV or is not yet registered. Now I would like to allow them with an H-mark. Problem: No US driving certificate is available yet no full acceptance at the Tüv and quite needing restoration. Customs documents and safety declaration as well as the technical. Data sheet of GM is available from 1992!! I believe the declaration of safety should be reapplied at www.kba.de. Do I get the info if everything is OK so that it has not been stumbled in the USA? Rich these formalities then have also been hoarded by an expert report which certifies that it is a vintage car?

What luxury SUV?
Hello dear MT community After I asked about 3 months ago, which Suv you would take, I swung between cayenne S and bmw X5. But due to an unexpected inheritance, my need or financial reach shifted more towards luxury SUV. Choose from Cayenne Turbo from Techart , Spyker D12 , or Range Rover sport. I know that these are quite unnecessary problems but I just wanted to ask for your opinion. Personally, I tend strongly to Spyker D12 (which you have to wait for a certain time) because it is simply something extraordinary and I like the look very much. Lg Alex

944
I write for a friend. He made his driver’s license a year ago and is now looking for a car. He didn’t like a “standart car” all golf, Corsa, A3 etc. and is now looking for a car that doesn’t everyone has. He thinks the 944 is good and I should inform myself now. All my (his) questions are, how many must he spend on a good car, which is safety (ABS, airbag etc.), depreciation, running costs etc. And is such a car about head for a beginner good or too dangerous?
