  • Protective clothing “out” ????

    Hi together, so I was in Munich this morning with POLO to buy me new motorcycle boots, already I see around the 15 motorcycles in front of the shop… Gradually the owners come out, put their helmets on the Koof and steam off… I just thought “what, no jacket, no gloves… not even a NIERENGURT?!?!?!”… That can’t be true… And I see more and more often, especially on racing machines, that the riders only have the helmets on…. I don’t care, but I think it’s very strange that very few motorcyclists seem to worry about their health… I tell you, just on the bike an accident happened quickly…… Or even not to catch a cold, I only ride with my motorcycle jacket…. What do you think about it???? Greetings and nice biker weekend (weather fits yes) Patrick

  • Camaro SS V8 / CLS 63 AMG / S6 / A8

    Hello all, I’m looking for a 2nd vehicle with more steam. I stand between the following vehicles: 1. Chevrolet Camaro SS V8 407 PS Bj ca. 2010-2015 2. Mercedes CLS 63 AMG 514 PS Bj 2008 3. Audi S6 5.2 FSI 435 PS Bj 2008 4. Audi A8 4.2 FSI 371 PS Bj 2010 My budget is about 25,000€. Important for me would be that the car remains value constant. Driving time of the car about 3 years… Driving performance is about 5,000km / year With the AMG and the Camaro I don’t know myself so much about I’ve heard a lot of negatives about the Audi S6 and the A8 because of the FSI engines. Can you help me decide? Which engine do I have least problems with? Which car loses least value? Would I be happy to receive answers!

  • Buy used cars, leases or AutoAbo

    Hello everybody, I am indiscriminate about how to continue with vehicles from October onwards. I can and would like to spend a maximum of €600 per month with fuel tanks for the car and not be tied to loans and co. for more than 3-4 years.The shorter the better.A few basic data so that you can assess the current situation of me:- Current Opel Corsa AutoAbo // 430€ monthly // 2000 kilometers per month = 24,000km per year – Only 1 year own car had insured on my name – So SF 1 (with self-registration I pay almost the highest insurance rate) – 55€ Garage costs – 150-20€ monthly approx. for refueling – hardly equity (maximum 2000€) // Rest would have to run by credit Previously driven by AutoAbo (Ford Focus Tournament ST-Line 1500km/month for 390€ monthly) What do you think would be a good opportunity for me? Of course, I would prefer a station wagon that will also survive a few years. Since I drive a lot with 2000 kilometers per month, it would also have to be Ach 5 years with approx. + 100,000 + 120,000 multi-kilometres are still ready to drive. Is this even realistic when I buy a used car? Even new cars are already difficult with such high distances or? And leasing means: I often have to insure myself and pay for additional maintenance, as I often come out more expensive at the end than with AutoAbo. Be happy about suggestions, how I could make this best. Also with suggestions for suitable used cars. for a loan would be the maximum I think 10,000€ +-, whereby here would still be minimal leeway. If you need more information, let me know!

  • The 1% rule for selfemployment

    Good morning, I have to buy a car, the new value of which will be about 70 thousand euros. But my tax advisor said that this would not make sense. My profit would increase by approx. 4000€ and I would have to pay more income tax accordingly. Do you have another possibility to drive such a car without having to keep a travel book, so that you might get away from this 4000€? Nice weekend Kristofer

  • Accident 3+ Financing

    Good day, I own an A-Class in the 3+ financing. However, a few months ago I had a self-inflicted accident due to Aquaplaning. I had this damage repaired directly via my insurance company. There was no evaluator regarding impairment. Will I get problems with it? Finally, it is now an accident car.

  • Old BMW Finance?

    Hey, short pre-information: I think about getting an E46 330 Coupe after my training (from 1.7) take-over offer is already available and I will stay safely in the company. I would then be at about 220€ net per month. Do not have any rental costs or anything else, fixed costs per month are currently at about 100€ In the training I drove an E46 325i, however this had a motor damage due to own fault, because with my training salary I have some Reper now I think about my dream car “again”. Costs will be the good thing about 10 000€ I saved at the moment almost 2000€, the financing would be then ~8000€ Now my question: Since I currently have no car and walk a day to work I would like to have that already in July, urgently need a car, now I think about buying something cheap for the 2000€ and saving me the 800€ in a year or whether I can buy the 800€ in 1-1.5 How do you see that? Thank you

  • Ferrari illegal?

    In advance: I’ve been a Formula 1 fan for about 14 years. I find the technology, the speeds and the performance of the drivers particularly remarkable. Although I favor certain drivers or teams…but I’m primarily concerned with motorsport itself. Now to the facts: – the regulations have been frozen for the past few years, especially the engine development is stalled by the speed limit – big jumps, strong demarcation from the competition or innovations are almost excluded Now to Ferrari: – take a look at Massa’s start remarkable…especially since Alonso has started wellhttp://www.myvideo.de/watch/4065736/Start_GP_von_Spain – take a look at the top speed values of the team, which was in Bahrain after Ferrari top of the rest, is rich 8.5 km/h slower on the degrees I am indeed Audi trailer…but that BMW is top in the engine range is beyond question; 2 km/h would still be acceptable, but 8 ?! http://www.motorsport-total.com/f1/ergeb/2008/03/51ts.shtml – look at the Ferrari one could push the top speed differences to the aerodynamics, however, compares the old with the new Ferrari, even the layman recognizes the restrained further developmenthttp://www.motorsport-total.com/…/searchshow.php?s=t1&%3Bb=146735http://www.motorsport-total.com/…/show.php?… There is an article in the current ams. It can always be that a team is better developed But the Ferrari dominance raises questions. What do you think about it???

  • Barichellos No.2 status

    one of the biggest points of dispute here in the forum can now finally be placed ad acta: Quotation: But he found himself with his role as number two and let go of everything that was ordered from Maranello. Until then finally the collar burst – and indeed at the scandal race of Indianapolis 2005: “At the US race 2005 in Indianapolis, the team asked me to slow down my pace so that Michael could get closer to me and overtake me. At this moment, for me, one of the biggest points of dispute here in the forum was The time has come to go. This race in the USA was crucial,” Barrichello told Brazilian media. Everything had started so well: “When I signed the contract, nothing pointed out that the pilots were treated differently,” said the record Grand Prix starter, who was “domesticly often angry” about the clear distribution of roles at Ferrari: “Everyone has always claimed that there are no differences between us, but there was an unequal gap between us. he fight.” I just leave it uncommented, not that I’m the bad guy again, who’s just always looking for a fight

  • All-wheel + as comfortable and quiet as possible? Which brand / model?

    In the next few months a new used car purchase is due. The budget is about 20,000 euros. All-wheel drive is mandatory. Kombi, Limousine, SUV is everything in the selection. It is important to me a quiet interior noise and comfort! At the moment I drive a 5 Golf 4Motion. In itself a good car, but on the AB for my taste by now simply too loud. I wish for a quieter engine, better insulation / suspension etc. These points are most important to me next to the four-wheel drive! I assume that SUVs are always louder than comparable limousines/combs? So, for example, would a 3 car be more suitable than an X3? What would be the most comfortable/lowest solution? Passat/3er/C-Class or similar with all-wheel drive? Are there any tests, which car is the quietest in the interior, for example? Thanks for the information.

  • Rear safety-belts

    Hello, yesterday I soon went crazy in the car. Why ever, the warning sound to put on a belt in the back began to annoy. On the back seats as always our dog in his box. The warning sound was so penetrant that a tinnitus was almost program. Not short beep beep or something. No, really long and corrosive loud. I tried to turn off the warning for the belts in the system. Just put on “off”. Nevertheless, although not so long the beeping went off again though, Pieper ei is a too nice word for it. I then drove to the next highway parking lot and put the belts in. Before I had to drive through all Dortmund over the B1 and could not stop. Such, though annoying little things have led me mentally after a car with little electronics. If I have no influence on such an annoying during the ride, this can directly lead me to another vehicle. That was really limitless with the noise. Maybe it can’t be deactivated in the system and I was wrong.
