  • What’s this in the forum here?

    I know that this isn’t a motorcycle theme, but maybe someone here knows what it’s supposed to be? In all the forums where I am, there are always 3 topics on top, supposedly I wrote posts on the topic of “cement mixers”, “shining” and “cleaning sticks”. But if I click on it, these articles don’t exist at all. What is this???

  • Mazda 6 MPS

    Hello I hope there isn’t already a thread, I didn’t see any. What do you think about the new 6 MPS, and does someone have more information about it? It was introduced in Paris and should be released in 2005. What I have read so far: – 2.3 L Turbo, 260 HP – 4WD – 18″ rims, etc. I’m very excited about it. I’ve always liked the design of the 6er, and also with power. I think he could become a sharp competitor to the Audis. (Turbo, 4WD) Je I hope only the price remains within the frame…

  • Which four-wheel qualities does the Evoque have compared to the competition?

    The Evoque has a very appealing design. With 150 hp, the new 9-speed automatic as a pure in white without a lot of frills also price acceptable. Is my current desired car. I live in the middle mountains, i.e. the winter characteristics and occasional wood recovery on a wet meadow or forest path are the challenge for the all-wheeler in my everyday life. More should be reserved then probably also the division Defender, G-Class etc. – but I do not need. What are the advantages of the Evoque compared to the all-wheel drive Haldex competition ? Are there the ? There are several videos on YT, which should convince the inclined buyer of the superiority, whether this is always objective, I do not know. My question is addressed to the experienced Evoque owners, who can also make a comparison to other brands, without putting on the brand glasses. That one also for half a duke So what can the Evoque or what can he not do so well against the competition in the same technical league?

  • Update 2021

    Does anyone know if the route delays are still displayed? I see the one since the release of the Updat any more. So I don’t see any big improvements. Rather the opposite. And if the update wasn’t necessary to use the language function again I wouldn’t have done that. But as I said, I miss the expected delay of a route very much. Did it also fall away?

  • Purchase advice

    Hello, I love to fulfill a boy’s dream and buy my gift for the 50th prematurely: a Mercedes SLK. Key data: SLK 200 compressor or SLK 230 (preferably) NO automatic color: NOT silver and NOT BLACK Price: maximum 12,000, prefer less mileage: not too far over 100,000 dealer’s offer preferred (have little idea of cars, guarantee would give me a minimum of safety) This SLK:red SLK would meet the above criteria with the exception of the running leist my questions: a) Can you buy a car with this mileage without having to accept immense repairs from the outset? b) What do I have to pay attention to? c) Does someone know the dealer? Thanks Andreas

  • Strange sign

    Attention! This thread might not be quite serious! I have noticed signs in the Harz, where I had to think about what the initiator was thinking about. Yesterday I stopped on my lap and photographed one of them. Quite obviously the stylized driver on the sign is hanging the curve. So what should be communicated to the motorcyclist? Here is a track on which one can practice for the race track / should? The curves from here. r can only be mastered hangingly? From here follows Gaudi? Give the last!!! Perhaps this is one of the joke signs that wants to convey a message with subtle irony?

  • Trucks at a motorway exit

    Yesterday I had to take a detour because of a truck column before a motorway exit. According to Navi it was still 1.5-2 km (I don’t know exactly) until my exit. Then I saw a number of trucks. They all drove very closely together and with almost no safety distance. From my point of view I could not estimate exactly how long the row will be and thought to myself: You can still do that, are still 2 km. So I drove on the left track w until I noticed that this would go still 3-4 km further. I already gave up and didn’t blink on the right and tried to get on the right track even 1 km before, because I certainly couldn’t have managed it until the exit. It would have been quite dangerous to classify myself there. Until the trucks had created a gap for me it would have been too late anyway. So I was forced to drive almost 6-7 km to the next exit. On the further way there were also many trucks on the way, but these kept the sufficient distance at least so that I could switch to the right lane in time before the exit. Then of course arrived only half an hour later, but the risk of cutting the trucks just before the exit was too great for me. Who had similar or similar experiences? And how did you deal with the situation?

  • Diesel company cars up to 45k (incl. equipment)

    Hello together, for months I’ve been rubbing my head, I just can’t find the right vehicle. I have to choose a new company car, so far I had a Seat Leon ST FR. The following conditions: What I actually need: Thanks to the heater, BMW seems to fall completely out (don’t find any in the configurator) The VW Touran has no four wheel. Actually I don’t want to have an SUV, because I really don’t need one, but I always go to the Skoda Kodiaq. Seat Leon X-P erience or Golf Alltrack are nice, but since my wife really wants to sit higher, they probably don’t really come into question. Does someone from the head how much cm are higher than a standard golf ? I am grateful about ideas or suggestions!

  • Tyre mounting Frecheit from ATU

    Hello you. Wanted to have my new tires for the 106er after work today. So go and look for tire service. Unfortunately just before 6. Well, I don’t think I can do that too. Well I got there and ask about the assembly. Says the no problem but when they bring their own makes the extra charge. I like it, well how much? And you hold on. They want to have 90€ for the change. I immediately rejected it and said that as a customer I really the last Well, I don’t care if I go to Vergoelst tomorrow and then it’s good. After all, I paid for the tires 13€ so 52€ of the set and the full posts want to raise 90€. I wanted to tell you this. I have to go today. ATU is really the last. mfg MVP-Cruiser
