Hello guys, I need your expert advice: Since May 2007 I have leased an A3 with the following conditions: duration 48 months, mileage leasing (20,000 km per year), deposit 20% of the gross list price (LP then 29,500 EUR, down payment thus 5,900 EUR), monthly leasing rate 216,00 EUR. Now it’s the case that I have a new job since spring, and thus I drive considerably more than is actually planned. Already now I have 71,000 km on it. Until the end of May 2011 it will be I have contacted my dealer and asked if I could terminate the lease early. I would then like to replace the car (have the money on a daily money account, and at the moment there is little interest anyway) and take over the A3 itself. I would have to pay at the moment around 17.900 EUR redemption. In addition, there is an advance compensation of 510 EUR (whether this is the Volkswagen Leasing or the dealer). My question to you: what would you do? I’m torn back and forth. On the one hand, the car would finally be mine, on the other hand, comparable A3’s at mobile.de are already traded for about 14.500 EUR at the moment. Wouldn’t it be more sensible to let the leasing continue to the end of the contract despite the multi-kilometres? Could it be that this comes to me at the end nevertheless cheaper, and that I at premature Überna hme actually would only be the stupid one, because I would possibly take over the residual value risk that the dealer would actually have to bear? What do you think?

Used car purchase as a trader / protection by used car insurance
Good day, I have a few questions about the car purchase as a trader. A large car dealer between Hamburg and Bremen sells relatively young used cars at quite acceptable prices. We are looking for an Audi A6 with approx. 100,000 km. Now I have repeatedly stumbled over the “purchase as a trader” in the last few years when searching for used cars, because I can save myself the VAT here and the vehicles are sold without “risk surcharge”. I ha However, it is reasonable to register a small business (ebay trade or similar) by selling it to a trader, to save about 2000-2500 Euro in the purchase with my price frame. It is quite clear to me that I do not guarantee this. Now it is possible, however, to secure such a vehicle with a used car insurance for about 250 Euro/year against repair costs. So I always have after my short calculation I consider the offers of the car dealership to be serious, as they also sell to private persons at an additional cost (+tax). – So if I register a small business and buy such a vehicle to use it privately, what do I have to take into account? – Do I have to prove that I also use the vehicle commercially and if so, how is this checked? – Can I simply specify a commercial use if my “company” does not make any sales? – Do I have to drive the vehicle? or does it have to be “registered” somehow? Thank you for the answers

Recommended purchase Audi A6 or BMW 5 Series GT
Hello people I absolutely need a purchase advice!!! I’m currently driving a Mercedes Benz E 320 CDI built in 2007 (Facelift) Limo. I’m actually fully satisfied with the car. However, I have family growth and need a bigger car. Of course also a diesel My choice has actually already been limited to the 5 GT and Audi A6 s line Kombi. However, I can’t decide and ask for your help. I don’t really want the 5 Touring. In my opinion, Daimler’s combo is not beautiful at all. Maybe someone has experience with both models and can make me a purchase recommendation. Thanks already PS: Which motorization would you recommend with the A6 s line combo

Combi up to 8000 (max 8500) from dealer
Hello, since my 96′ Vento will probably no longer get the badge (Rost), I am looking for a robust, reliable combi up to 800€. My favorites are so far Ford Focus Vw Golf 5 Roomster Octavia from Opel (bad experiences in the known circle) and Japanese (your maintenance costs/reperatures) I have so far aside. Whether diesel or petrol is also unclear, since this year’s move and end of the year new job search is also pending, so the future mileage is not foreseeable At the beginning it will be 12-15 tsd Km. I was already looking at the We a little bit what is offered in the vicinity. At the moment I tend to focus as 2.0 tdci (2008, 125000km) or 1.6 16V (2009, 75000km), because they had quite new and comparatively low running performance. However, Ford should have some rust and turbo problems (?) I also liked two Golf 5 Variant with 1.9 tdi, but they had much more km on the Tachos (2007; 129000, bit over budget, and 2009, 15 9000). With vw the engines should have from time to time problems with the head seals)… Roomster or Octavias I did not have found any in the price budget. Important for me just robustness and quite low maintenance costs. I took over my vento at the time also with 185000 km and it has been up to now (280000) km very reliable and often the workshop also did not see me. as alternative I also had found n 2005er Jetta with a 1.6er fsi motor. d ne alternative. Do you have any tips on the models? What should you pay attention to? Or do you propose completely different cars? thank you already Henry

After vehicle change accident with Wild!

Because of the lowering my car actually has no insurance, because I could not yet to the TÜV to enter it. Does anyone like it in such cases around the insurance??? Thank you very much in advance for your answers.

7 liters of roush engine with weaver carburettor…
Hello together… I’m new here and not so familiar with the topic. As I already wrote, I have a 7 litre roush engine with 4 double weaver carburetor… On the carburetors I have at the moment “only” a fine-meshed sieve which holds small stones or similar. How is your experience with it, the engine suffers very much from it or should I rather mount K&N air filter? looks just sch**ße… Have already talked with some people, they all said that this is not a big difference d the wear would be only minimal more… what do you think about it? I usually drive only highway or country road, so don’t run or the same… Thank you very much for your opinion

Dodge RAM 2010 – Pay attention to what?
N’Abend Gemeinde! After some disappointments about the quality and the warranty designs of some German “Premium” manufacturers I found myself today for a taster appointment at Geigercars in Munich, is not very far away from me. Now I got into the Dodge Ram, there are several new cars with the big cab and Laramie equipment around, Probesen was already very horny, motor sound when starting (with the conclusion from outside…lach) to kneel down, priceless off test drive comes the days, it should be a black (or a silver) with laramie, chrome tone etc.. The Geiger-Rams all have an EU-Navi and a km/h-tacho in it, consultation was funny to honest (as far as I can judge), warranty 2J. goes over Geiger (doesn’t capture all parts completely), otherwise the shop makes a good impression, above all the workshop works well on me. I would be really connected if you to me to the car, to Geiger and possibly Stolp I’m an absolute novice in the US car sector. Merci and greetings Nik

My Lincoln on the front page of ams
Of course it wasn’t, but for a few seconds I was amazed when I saw it on facebook today. That’s what my daughter (12) made. Cute, isn’t it?(ok, ok, I know: one or the other will surely say: Yawn, I already knew, but I didn’t know it yet and I loved it.)

Realistic price 2007 Mustang roush 427R
Hello together, a well-known one told me about a Musteng Roush 427R which is for sale. – 2007 model – 450 miles on the speedometer!!!! – Has been standing since purchase in the garage (except for the 450Meilen) – So an absolute new car condition. – He bought it directly at the Ford dealer bar. So, now my question: What is such a car worth in Germany, and is it rather a rarity that rises in price, or will it fall? I would assume that if I bought it, the mile fence will fall. I am currently living in the USA and going back next year. Play with the idea of buying a vehicle to invest some money and that seems to me to be an interesting vehicle. So, I’m curious who knows what.
