BMW doesn’t have to make the best EV. They really just have to make a decent one and brand loyalty can make up the rest. A big sticking point for many people coming from higher end brands is the interior of Teslas. BMW could make a decent EV with a more traditional interior. Another is service. While Tesla does have the service vans getting stuff fixed at service centres does seem to be a challenge for some people. BMW could compete there.

But the reality is that a lot of those PHEVs from BMWs and other tend to have ridiculously short EV range (25km and less), and I be willing to bet that many people buying them don even bother charging them. And their EV mode will typically be under 100hp so you have to drive like an old granny and never get on the highway to remain in BEV mode.

I think that what people are miffed by. People talking about their “attainable dream car” could be talking about something interesting or uncommon that they been looking for and saving towards for years (good), or just a pretty standard hot hatch everyone already knows about or even a fucking passenger van apparently (bad). The term kind of looses all meaning when people just slap it on a car that they bought because they liked it and could afford it, not a car that is actually aspirational to most people. It doesn even need to be expensive to be aspirational, it could be something unique and uncommon like a rare older model that hard to find or someone importing a car they wanted as a kid but was never sold in their country, but a Fiesta and a Transit? It just a bit lame IMO, and opening a post talking about dream cars in the title only to find out it referring to those two is pretty naff.

I agree with some person here. Mercedes and BMW have their own segment. No doubt they engineered and build their car differently. In my mind BMW cars deliver sporty and elegance to their car. BMW cars’ image are perfectly match with young,spirited person who wants enjoyment of driving car in high speed and elegant way. Mercedes cars are build for people who wants to ride a comfort, high class car.

My friends often ask me about the difference between a sedan and a coupe, a hatchback and a wagon, and so on. It’s such a common question that I decided to write an article on this topic. If you own a car or are planning on purchasing one, or if you simply have a passion for cars, you’ll want to know about the different car types aside from makes and models. Read on to find out about the most popular body styles.

Roughly 1/2 of your annual income. Also, if you take a loan out on the car, it could mean that the car will cost you 10 25% more than the sticker price. Yikes!Yes, saving up could take up to a year but you will save yourself from looking like a douchebag (to some) for buying a brand new bmw your first month of work at your first job.

If you are a passive aggressive jerk and start games off demanding this or that or take the courier 11 times and flame people for it, consistently make terrible decisions and aren at least apologetic, then yeah reports matter a little bit, because your behavior score will trend downwards and you get lower quality matches with more people like you.

In his later years Jung lived mostly in isolation, and many feel he missed Freud. He did go to Taos, New Mexico to visit Chief Mountain Lake of the Taos Pueblos. He also visited Eastern Africa in 1925 to try to envision “primitive psychology” in a better way. He learned that what he saw there was much like what he learned from his own life and that of those everywhere. At the end of his life, Jung became interested in UFO’s, and tried to decide if they had archetypal meaning or other psychological significance. All in all he was a very interesting man, who added much knowledge and understanding of our consciousness.

Another comment you mention a cheap series define cheap. You may find some local ish oval tracks that offer an inexpensive 4 cylinder or V8 class, which is some of the only racing aside from karting I can think of where you can run a whole season for under $10k. Knowing what kind of budget you dealing with will be helpful. There is a huge difference between what you can run with a budget of $1k or $10k or $100k.

And I paid more than yours. (Used i3s seem to be more expensive here.)I just bought a CPO REx just a few weeks ago. Mine is fully loaded with giga interior, and out the door price was around 24k. I love it! I make a 60 mile commute everyday to work and back, and it so great passing the gas station every day.

This particular kit comes with everything you need except engine, transmission, and paint. It’s designed around a small block Chevy engine, although a large number of engines can be squeezed in there. How about the 5.4l V8 from a Porsche 928 GTS? Coming with 345bhp, this thing will fly, and that’s before you start tweaking the engine. 500bhp is attainable!

I researched this for 9 months and purchased the Baby Jogger City Select 2010 (all terrain) It is a side by side up to 50 lbs on each side, plenty of room for a larger toddler and the seat reclines to flat and I used my son in that at 3 weeks. I LOVE it. It fits through every doorway we’ve encountered. We have even taken in through the airport to the bahamas and it was perfect. I cannot recommend this stroller enough. Worth every penny. Perfect stroller in every way. Oh and it does fold up and fits in the trunk of a BMW 3 series (very small trunk space) Of course it is heavy as all doubles are, but I’m pretty weak and manage fine with it on my own.

You can have a great driving experience with modern convertibles. These are basically small cars with large, retractable sunroofs which are made up of high quality textiles. Cabrio coaches were very popular in Germany in the 1930s. These cars are a little less expensive than full convertibles due to their single body frames.

Either way, I’m thinking of possibly a Britax or Radian XT brand for me. There are so many things to consider, including whether I want an infant seat or convertible seat and if I want it to be compatible with the stroller. Also, since we may get 2 maybe we’ll get one infant and one convertible??? Or maybe we’ll share for a while and then get a 2nd one later when the baby gets bigger. So much ladies, my head is about to explode!!!

Put the Defender outboard on passenger side for the teacher to help your son in/out of the car. It’s easy to buckle/unbuckle; by the time school starts, your son may be able to even do it himself! (And if the teacher or any other school parents complain to you about the extra 30 seconds it takes to buckle a child into a 5 point harness, tell them that at his young age and size, those 30 seconds make ALL the difference to his safety in a car crash. Isn’t a child’s life and future worth 30 seconds???)

With all the bulk of that supercharger.Just to give you an idea of how worlds apart is production bikes and motogp. Modern liter bikes ridden by ex motogp racers like Simon crater posts laptimes comparable or lower to that of moto3 riders in race pace. That is 250 cc vs 1000 cc, 60 HP vs 200+ Hp.11th on the grid using an “off the shelf” pirelli SCX, a tyre that anyone can contact pirelli and buy.

The issue is that some of the people who do abuse it are so incredibly blatant. They get away with more because they are actively scamming the system. It’s like a nerfarious version of what I do with airline miles. I find every program and loophole I can because it’s the only way I can afford to visit my family (and it’s legitimate). Because I am actively keep an eye on the programs and know all the rules/loopholes I get way more miles than most other folks who passively use the programs. I have personally known some welfare abusers and am sadly related to at least one. You’d think just by watching who brags, you could pick out the creeps. It seems most people don’t have the patience though. It’s a shame that there are people who use their benefits at casinos,resorts, in the Bahama, etc. Because it devalues the purpose of the system.

So what do you need on top of the $20,000 asking price? Not much really. Of course, you need the engine, transmission, and rear end. There are plenty of brand new or second hand options on that. You need original Ford headers, but not the rest of the exhaust. You need wheels and tyres, but there are so many options as this car uses the Mustang bolt pattern. Next is paint, which, once again, is totally up to you! Last, you need a fuel pump and battery. All in all, you could build one up for $25,000 upwards.

Despite having installed an L2 charger. I never actually needed that charging speed. Most of my driving happens close to my house (about 35 miles per day, if I average it out), and the car is pretty much always topped up when I jump into it in the morning.So. should you get an L2 charger? I still say yes, because fast charging is nice.

Used” front luxury cars depreciate way more steeply than most. You might want to investigate that a little before buying new. If you like me you could never have enough money to be happy wasting it.Can I ask why you considering the car if you can wrap your mind around it? I love cars too so no typical /r/pf judgment, but if you coming from something like a Corolla why not something in the middle? A $30K Mustang V 8 or even the Ecoboost, a recent $15K used Miata, hell, even a used BMW 340i or the prior gen 335i? Plenty of fun to be had without needing to buy an M3 rocketship that will empty your wallet every time you need a repair.Personally I think you can afford it but if you feeling hesitance already, why not save yourself ten grand, thirty grand, etc.

A Ferrari fan could spend $215,000 on the Portofino, the company’s newest convertible sports car and entry level model, or buy 1,335 shares of the company, which was recently trading at $162 on the New York Stock Exchange (ticker symbol RACE). An ultra rare and exclusive Ferrari, like the iconic 250 GTO from the 1960s, commands millions and millions of dollars. Take the car or 267,000 shares?

My daughter was taught by her friends on such occasions, so we figured we would show jamie ourselves how to drive. that way he is taught right.people out here in the country are too trusting and a lot still leave their keys in the car and house unlocked.Polly Cposted 7 years ago”where i live the kids are known for sneaking around taking people cars out of their driveway and returnin them before anyone wakes up.” that sort of thing doesn’t happen round here so I would never have to worry about it.

On top of that, all the circlejerking about Blizzard in this thread is also really aggravating. “After Diablo Immortal, this is the last straw. Fuck you, Blizzard, I out.” Blizzard has all but said publicly they working on Diablo 4, but that not good enough I guess. They also have to not work on anything else you personally think you might not like. If they are working on Diablo 4, but aren far enough along to have anything to show, but they also paying a third party developer to make a mobile game, and that mobile game is much bfakn.club farther along, why shouldn they show it? And every idiot Diablo fan in this thread talking shit will fucking download it and play the shit out of it, too.

The Jaguar XK R is the second most powerful car on this list with over 500 raging horses under the hood; it looks fantastic and has a supercharger. So why is it so far down on this list? Weight. Despite having twice the engine displacement and 150 extra horsepower, the XK R is 16 seconds behind the TT RS, the next slowest car on the list, around the Nrburgring. Sixteen seconds! What this goes to show is that, like the Z4, the XK R is probably more comfortable going on a spirited weekend drive around the countryside than it is on a racetrack. While this certainly isn’t a bad thing there is definitely a market for GT cars such as this the relaxed driving style of the XK R isn’t going to be enough to get it higher on the list. Although it’s slower to 60 than others on this list, it’ll still plant you into the back of the leather seats when you put the automatic transmission into Dynamic Mode and floor it.

If you don have a huge commute and rarely put on more than 20 30 miles in a day, that charger will work just fine.If you end up using up the whole charge in a single day though. and need a full charge by next morning. things get dicer.It takes this car 18 20 hours to fully charge from empty using the included level 1 charger, and obviously you can do that overnight.That where a L2 charger comes in.

Going beyond that, the local professional soccer team, Greenvile Triumph, have a pretty big supporters group that I part of and help run, the Reedy River Riot. We tailgate every home game and drink beer before marching over to the game. I don have enough fingers to count how many people have come to our events not knowing anyone and now have a ton of friends because they are part of the group!

(Plus, it really nice to get in a car that already the right temperature, than to get in a freezing car during the winter, or a sweltering car in the summer.)Note: I bought a 2015, certified preowned, every single option about 8 months ago, and it the best car purchase I ever made.

It is important to note that this scanner is simply a connector and will not read the codes and display the information by itself. It needs a device that can connect to it via Bluetooth wireless such as a smartphone or laptop computer (you will also need software on that device). An easy solution is an Android powered phone with the Torque Pro app installed.

The Audi TT coupe does not have enough driver leg support. I am 5′ 7″ and had gotten used to very comfortable bucket seats in the Infiniti G35. The TT seats are shorter and do not extend far enough forward to provide the appropriate level of thigh support. I’ve tried adjusting the seat in every possible position to no avail. I also spent hours Googling to see if I could find seat extenders that would work with the TT and could not find any.

I enjoyed my Infiniti, but after four years of operating a rear wheel drive car in snowy New England, I decided that my next car had to be either front wheel drive or all wheel drive. So, I was very excited to learn that Audi now had a super powerful, 3.2 liter, all wheel drive version of the TT.

“This statement is the problem. The idea that there is one definition of a car guy.” As you yourself said, not all enthusiasts are the same. I prefer to buy well built, well sorted packages that are OEM tier: Ohlins, Bilstein, etc. It why I bought an R35 GT R. And a 991 GT3. I know I know. It would be “easy” to build something faster if I were a “real” car guy right? Maybe with some Googling I could figure it out and show Porsche and Nissan engineers how it’s done? Perhaps. But suspension engineering isn my thing. And if I were to go aftermarket, I like to buy OEM grade parts with strong company backing. So far that doesn’t exist for Tesla.

Can he just drive the Subaru all year? We’ve just moved to a snowy area and omg people go on about their Subaru’s. Something about the 50/50 balance of the engine makes them good in snow. Everyone here has awd and I don’t see anyone changing out cars for the season (unless they’re living in much nicer area than I am!).

It the same thing as the guys that buy a high powered 30k Ducati race bike to putt around town on. Everyone is entitled to do as they wish and if it worth it to you then awesome, I personally just find the notion silly. I bought a 2016 BMW 3 series slightly used with 1,000 miles on it.

Assembly Chinese cabinets are manufactured with absolute ease of assembly in mind. Therefore, most of them use a cam lock mechanism where the cabinet face frame and cabinet sides/top/bottom are held together with a hook type fastener that engages the opposing piece when a screw is turned. A common application of this that we all grew up with can be found in Sauder or Ikea furniture. There are usually some plastic blocks to assist in keeping things square as well. Some manufacturers suggest the use of glue and advise that the client not depend solely on the cam locks.

“When one is in the game low impact” this is a subjective matter. Yes there are bad CVs, but there are also hordes of DDs that sit broadside in smoke, charge into caps covered by radar/hydro, cruisers that sail broadside, BBs that park 23km away, etc. I would strongly argue that even bad CVs are highly impactful, because your team is so badly crippled if the enemy CV is average or better.

To summarize, the Cayman R is a purist’s dream when it comes to performance cars. Despite having the lowest horsepower of the 10 cars on this list, it laps the Nrburgring in 8:06, faster than the Ferrari 550 Maranello, the V10 powered BMW M6, and the Lamborghini Diablo SV. The R makes up for being a low powered car by weighing as close to nothing as you’ll find in a modern car. That means excellent acceleration, braking, and handling. Expanding upon their model lineup of the Elise and Exige, Lotus added the Evora as a slightly larger and more powerful sports car. Although it is bigger than the tiny Elise, the Evora has retained everything that has put Lotus on top of the wish lists of drivers 온라인카지노 worldwide. The chassis is well balanced, the steering and handling are incredibly precise, and the brakes are amazing. While the standard Evora makes do with 276 hp, the S includes a supercharger on top of the 3.5L Toyota V6, boosting power to 345 hp at 7,000 rpm. To stop all 345 of these horses, the Evora S has excellent brakes and tires. When Car and Driver tested the Evora S’s 70 0 braking distance, it landed within five feet of the best distance they had recorded 146 feet. This handling and grip of the Lotus can make average drivers look great and inspire confidence at the limit. The Evora maintains all of the downsides that are present in nearly all Lotus cars, namely the complete lack of practicality. The cabin is small and not particularly ergonomic, the footwell is very tight, and visibility is limited.

Personally I almost always service at the BMW dealer. They charge a premium but everything is almost always done correctly, and if not they have worked hard to fix it. They also detail the car and provide a loaner for months if needed. My dealer charges only 10 20% extra for parts and labour. Some dealers are charging double mine. For me, BMW has been a huge positive experience vs indie work.

I see this problem like the housing problem. People without houses want cheaper places to live. Everyone wants more housing but no one wants them to build it near them. Point is unchecked immigration would lead to a lot of issues that the people pushing for it won have to deal with so they are ok with it.

If you live in a single family house and have a driveway or garage that you can park next to a wall, get a 240V “EVSE” (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment, colloquially but incorrectly called a “level 2 charger.”) Unless you have a 240V, 30A electric dryer style outlet available right next to where you want to park, you need an electrician to install one.

Also, for all points cards here, there are so many carve outs that it’s impossible to track what kind of spend earns a full point vs a tenth of a point unless it’s very specific like the cash back cards mentioned above. I paid AED 30k once for a car down payment on my SPG Emirates NBD card thinking I’d get 8k SPG points. I got less than a thousand points and promptly cancelled.

The Radian may still be a good choice for your 3.5 year old. Depending on how they puzzle, you may be able to put your 18 mo RF (rear facing) in the RA w/ the RN in the middle and the infant seat outboard. It’s something you may have to play around with. If it fits in between the two front seats, the RN makes a great RF (rear facing) seat, too.

The video below goes some way to show just how fast this car is around corners too. Almost a full 5 SECONDS faster than the Koenigsegg CCX (although Top Gear keeps refusing to put it round themselves). Definitely worth watching just to hear the noise and witness the best kit car in the world doing its thing.

BMW R50/5, R60/5 and R75/5The line of BMW’s commonly known as “Slash 5s” is legendary. These are one of the most dependable bikes ever made, with many having hundreds of thousands of miles on them. They came into production in 1970 and stayed until 1973 when the /6 appeared. These bikes were far more modern than the /2s they replaced. They featured 12 volts electrics, electric starters, and telescopic forks. The R75 was the fastest production bike available at the time with a top speed of 110 mph. These bikes were all produced in the Spandau suburb of Berlin, where BMW relocated all motorcycle production from Munich in the late 1960s.

If you charge it home it really depends on what you are replacing it with. Many people trade in hybrids or other eco cars for these, which do not run on premium. The fuel savings are there, if you charge at home, but at current gas prices it isn a huge difference. The difference in tire replacement costs and insurance costs more than make up that difference in fuel savings over a more economical car.

Oh, and of course, the best bit, you get to build it yourself! If that’s not something you’ve done before, fear not, most of these cars can be built relatively easily, and there is plenty of help out there on forums. The Factory five forums are very very impressive, so are the GT40 ones.

We are traveling in May with LO (little one) who will be 18 months. I am planning on taking our Sureride for the flight (he has his own seat), and installing it FF on the plane. Not thrilled with FF for the flight, but I’m ok with it, and knew that would have to happen on a flight with this particular seat.

Recently, I picked up a 1999 MKIV Jetta 2. It was slow, and as good as the thing looked, it ran like sht. After replacing the downpipe and cat (this car failed emissions hard), I was getting error code 16518, “No Activity Bank 1 Sensor 1” on my VAG COM. As well as 16521, “Bank 1 Sensor 2 Signal Intermittent,” which I wasn’t too concerned about.

But it is the post 1969 bikes, built after BMW moved motorcycle production from Munich to Spandau in West Berlin, that are attracting both touring riders and collectors. “Before the move to Spandau, BMW motorcycles were expensive to produce and not sold all over the world. Each bike was assembled by an individual engineer, asystem that was not financially viable andalmost bankrupted the company,” explains Peter Ardron, chairman of the UK based BMW Airhead Fellowship. “But production changed completely after that, because the plant shifted to more efficient build methods while retaining the existing standards of quality. That’s when BMW Motorrad really took off.”Ardron cites the R90S as one of the most sought after classic models, around 17,500 examples of which were built from 1973 to 1976. Featuring an 898cc engine producing 67bhp, a small “bikini” fairing and a neat “ducktail” seat, the bike had a top speed of 125mph, effortless cruising ability and distinctive looks, thanks to its “smoke effect” paintwork insilver grey or Daytona orange.

I forgot to add that the other feature of the Aton that makes it a better fit for small cars is that the release handle for the seat is on the bottom where as most are on top near the canopy. This means you don’t have to worry about having enough room for your hand to fit to pull the handle between the infant seat and front seat. This made a big impact on the seats that would work in our car and the Aton won easily.

There are actually videos that help you learn the technique. It significantly easier with the top off, but manageable with the top on. Getting out is more difficult than getting in, especially for a fat guy, as gravity works against you. What I do to get out is swing a leg out, use my hands to push up on the sides of the seat to hoist my butt up onto the sill, then swing my other leg out and stand up. Once you mastered it, it looks very casual. I actually had someone that saw me do it remark that it was the most graceful exit he had ever seen from an Elise.

2) Elizabeth Warren. She Batman if Harris is Superman. She brilliant and nuanced and could eloquently make her point in a wise educator kind of way but also toggle passion and came off very charming as well. Also lots of detailed solution proposals across a wide variety of topics and none of them anchor positions.

Madonna, the Material Girl Madonna 8/16/58 or Madonna Louise Ciccone, the real name of this controversial artist, is in the Guinness Book of World Records as the top selling female performer of all time. She lost her mother at the age of 5, and suffers the unresolved emotions of this tragedy. Madonna was a lonely young girl who got good grades in school, but always felt rebellious, like she was searching for something.

On top of all that, you have to contend with GTE cars making their way through constantly, meaning you need to keep an eye on the relative, your mirrors, and make sure you use Crew Chief for spotter/engineer updates.Best strategy for pitstops in hour or less races: pit the absolute latest you can, use Crew Chief to calculate how much fuel you need to get to the end, and don change tyres.

Dealership 2 I decided I would buy a Mini, despite my negative experience, but it took months for me to get to that point. I made an appointment with this dealership to test drive a vehicle. When I arrived, I was advised there were no automatics to test drive, as they were all still “wrapped up.” They had a lot full of cars, but none of them were automatics. The salesman had the gall to state I could still make a down payment on a car, even though I hadn’t test driven the one I wanted yet. I walked out as I was very upset.

Get reddit premiumEveryone question is buyer

Get reddit premiumEveryone question is buyer specific, but some/all of your question may be easily answered using our FAQ check them out below!Please post the Model, Year, Miles and Trim when asking vehicle specific questions to help us resolve your issue faster! This should include trim, major options (engine, 2WD/4WD, specific options or add ons), and an honest evaluation of the condition. Once you start hitting the 80K mile+ range there are several repairs you can expect, but generally the problem is the issues are random.

Can he just drive the Subaru all year? We’ve just moved to a snowy area and omg people go on about their Subaru’s. Something about the 50/50 balance of the engine makes them good in snow. Everyone here has awd and I don’t see anyone changing out cars for the season (unless they’re living in much nicer area than I am!).

My i3 has the 20″ tires without winter tires, you will need to use Traction Control, drive carefully and slower than you probably used to. I don feel like the car is going to lose control on straights; its mostly in turning in snow/ice and definitely resistant braking gives the whole car a shimmy slide move which is disconcerting. My rear wheel drive M3 with blizzaks was almost like driving with an SUV in snow much more control.

Cheap SupercarsOkay, let’s make one thing clear there probably isn’t anything called a ‘cheap’ Supercar. In America, any new mid engined Ferrari 458 Italia or a Lamborghini Gallardo would still retail for over USD 300,000.00 (or over half a mil in Australia, thanks to our taxes!). In other words, buying even a small supercar can be the same spending that amount of money on an average priced house.

For the sliding it to another point thing. In my mom’s accord, the place on the vehicle seat track where I could fit the D ring was a few inches toward the front of the vehicle. Once I got the strap threaded through, I was able to slide it further back towards the end of the seat track. There wasn’t enough space to thread the D ring at that point, but there was enough room for the strap portion to slide in between the track and the vehicle there.

BMW’s designers draw inspiration from areas such as architecture and contemporary interior design. It is a prodigious effort of creation, relaying back to Munich every advance observed in new technology. Sometimes ideas arrive as “old tech”, sketches in a notebook from someone’s travels. All this input is refined by the design team.

BMW is one of the most successful marques in racing, from providing, probably, the most successful engine ever for Formula One (the straight four M10), through to decades of dominance on the road in touring and rally cars. “It is a company close to my heart,” says Adrian van Hooydonk, senior vice president of BMW Group Design. “Driving is close to my heart, too; expressing movement in metal it’s what I love.”

Clinton was born and raised in Arkansas, and didn’t even know for sure who his father was, bringing home the fact Baby Boomers grew up on that anyone could grow up to be President. Clinton was always a top student, graduating from Georgetown University and earning a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford University. He also attended Yale Law School, and has a law degree, but never practiced law. He did, however, meet Hillary Rodham at Yale, and they married a year later. Many of Hillary’s friends thought she was crazy to move from her Chicago home to live in Arkansas, but she did it anyway.

We just bought a new BMW X3. I have a Britax Marathon that my 2 year old rides in RFing. I use the RFing tether. I am having a hard time finding a good place to put the strap. Right now I have it on the track of the seat (where it typically goes) but the problem is that the point where I can get the strap around starts far up. Meaning that the passanger can not push the seat very far back at all. In fact, I am only 5’4, and I barely have any leg room sitting in it. If the seat is more upright, it can go further back, so you have more leg room.

My friends often ask me about the difference between a sedan and a coupe, a hatchback and a wagon, and so on. It’s such a common question that I decided to write an article on this topic. If you own a car or are planning on purchasing one, or if you simply have a passion for cars, you’ll want to know about the different car types aside from makes and models. Read on to find out about the most popular body styles.

This will help you getting a better feel for the car balance, know where the limit of the grip is and you might even find a better/faster line down the track.Secondly, the most of the z4 weight is in the back, so that why it so happy to throw that beautiful fat ass around like it some Shaquina from the hood.

Can be expensive. If you want to get multiple options, then the price of this car can skyrocket. With all of the options I wanted, the price of my vehicle jumped by over 30%! Granted, it was worth it, but it made it the most expensive car I have ever owned. So be prepared to spend a lot of money if you want various options to make your car unique.

They probably tweak the pricing after the tax rebate is reduced, but it take time and it probably won be as straight forward as (all prices $1000). So you be stuck in a waiting game after that. If you keep your eyes out between July December you probably be able to recoup most of the tax rebate that you missed, but it ridiculous that you have to even consider that.

Just five years ago, a good, roadworthy R90S could be had for about 5,000 but that was then. UK dealer Classic Super Bikes is now offering a superbly restored example for 12,500 andanother described as “a bit scruffy in places” for 9,995. Meanwhile, Australian auction house Shannons has hammered down a beautifully restored smoke grey example for A$15,500 (about 8,870).

Either way, I’m thinking of possibly a Britax or Radian XT brand for me. There are so many things to consider, including whether I want an infant seat or convertible seat and if I want it to be compatible with the stroller. Also, since we may get 2 maybe we’ll get one infant and one convertible??? Or maybe we’ll share for a while and then get a 2nd one later when the baby gets bigger. So much ladies, my head is about to explode!!!

How Often To Change Your Air FilterThis depends on your driving conditions but it’s usually recommended to change the filter every 30,000 miles. If you drive off road or in dusty conditions you may want to check your filter more often. I replaced mine 8 months ago (about 10,000 miles) and I’m pretty surprised at how dirty it is already. Given how relatively cheap it is to replace I probably will be changing mine every 20,000 miles or so.

Do not get me wrong, on two occasions as a youth I was whooped upon and jailed and then released without charges as a youth. I was known, due to sports, but I also wrote and distributed an underground newspaper with forbidden information back then clean needles, contraceptives, petitions for all kinds of things, family planning, locations for anti war demonstrations. And I wore my hair pretty wild for a backwater town.

On top of that, all the circlejerking about Blizzard in this thread is also really aggravating. “After Diablo Immortal, this is the last straw. Fuck you, Blizzard, I out.” Blizzard has all but said publicly they working on Diablo 4, but that not good enough I guess. They also have to not work on anything else you personally think you might not like. If they are working on Diablo 4, but aren far enough along to have anything to show, but they also paying a third party developer to make a mobile game, and that mobile game is much farther along, why shouldn they show it? And every idiot Diablo fan in this thread talking shit will fucking download it and play the shit out of it, too.

The LVL2 charger also allows for more time in equalization or absorption charge mode once the battery is near full. This is better for the HV battery long term.If you not in the BMW i3 worldwide group on FB its worth your time. There is a ton of information there and it linked to in the sidebar.I hope this explanation was helpful, there are a few generally accepted theories included, but BMW hasn provided a better explanation so most folks agree on them.TLDR: It definitely your 12v battery.

The Coccoro needs a “pool noodle” in a lot of vehicles, so be prepared for that. If you don’t like the pool noodle idea, you can order a “wedge” from Combi that’s kind of the same thing, but shaped specifically for the Combi brand seats. I would see how it fits in your car before ordering anything special, though.

Using the same chassis and suspension as the MK4 Roadster, this one not only adds a roof but probably the sweetest rear on any car ever made! It was the result of some serious aero work done to beat Ferrari. Sadly the car never went anywhere, because the year after, Ford not only moved Shelby across to the GT40 program but sunk their race budget into beating Ferrari on European soil.

Customization. When I was first shopping around for a Mini, I went to their website to play with the various options I could have on the car. A cool thing about this car is that you can customize it almost anyway you want. Not only does the Mini stand out among other cars, you can make your own Mini stand out among identical models.

If you talking about V8s specifically then yeah, but in general I not sure about that. Just as an example, have a look at the Chevelle SS. If you wanted the “450hp” LS6 you were going to have to spend at least $3312 in 1970, which is just under $22,000 today. If you wanted air conditioning and a AM/FM radio with tape deck options you be looking at over $4000, or over $26,000 in todays money. That still doesn sound like much for 450hp, but on a modern dyno the Chevelle only made 283hp. That because it was 450 gross hp, today we measure net hp which gives a significantly lower but much more realistic number. An Ecoboost Mustang makes about the same power on a dyno, starts at bit less than $26,000, has plenty of cheap tuning potential, and comes standard with features they wouldn have dreamed of when the Chevelle was made.

If you have both of these symptoms then the culprit is very likely to be a stripped gear inside the transfer case motor. The transfer case actuator motor is a small motor that is bolted on to the transfer case and can be removed and replaced (or repaired with a new internal gear).

Madonna married actor Sean Penn in 1985 on her birthday, while filming the video for Material Girl. She dedicated her album True Blue to him, but they divorced in 1987, because he drank and became abusive, and she admits to being obsessed with her career. Madonna also played the part of Eva Peron very well on the stage, a role she really wanted, which won her both a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award for the title song, “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina.” Madonna studied with a vocal coach and has a serious work ethic. She was one of the first artists seen wearing a headset while performing on stage. She often had to lip synch because the dance numbers which accompanied her songs were so intense.

The Mazda Miata earned its spot on top of this list for one reason: It is the best “driver’s car” of the bunch the one that dominates Autocross events nationwide and single handedly resurrected the old fashioned British Roadster concept. The Miata is anything but practical, and, for those living in northern climates, it won’t be particularly great to drive in the snow, but the handling and rear wheel drive brilliance all summer long will more than make up for it. In fact, many Miatas in northern areas such as “Minnesnowta” and Wisconsin have been summer only cars since they were first purchased. Therefore, you’ll be able to find a purist driver’s car with relatively few miles on it (considering the age) on a reasonable budget.

Squeaky BrakesI learned after I had the car for six months, that squeaky brakes are considered normal for the TT. I had brought the car in for some normal maintenance and asked them to check my brakes. I noticed that almost every time I braked, especially in colder weather, I heard a loud squeak.

With an airport internet from charles de gaulle paris, i was able to skype with my husband and my parisian friends and let them know my tricky predicament. Then i took the tgv train from paris to marseille, got off saint charles station and again i used the ipad to send text messeges for my friend who is supposed to pick me up at the train station. Could not find each other T the train station. I used the ipad to send text messeges to my friend. What a relief that was.

The circuit that will be used for July’s grand prix was opened in 1984 and measures a more manageable 5.1km. Some have deemed it “dull”, but these are mostly people who haven’t had the experience of racing on it. Virtually any racetrack seems on the mild side compared with the Nordschleife, which forms the major part of the original Nrburgring as it was inaugurated in 1927.

Despite having installed an L2 charger. I never actually needed that charging speed. Most of my driving happens bfakn.club close to my house (about 35 miles per day, if I average it out), and the car is pretty much always topped up when I jump into it in the morning.So. should you get an L2 charger? I still say yes, because fast charging is nice.

Unfortunately, despite the brief excitement and distraction that was provided when the boats appeared, the years of bitter legal wrangling and protracted uncertainty had also left an entire Cup community behind. Teams that had previously aspired to compete in the 33rd America’s Cup were barely able to comprehend, let alone match, the money that was being spent this time around.

I love my Britax. I decided to go for the Boulevards because the extra side impact protection was really important to me and the possibility of keeping baby rearfacing longer than Roundabout because of the extra length. I am amazed. Since I have friends who still have kids rearfacing at 3 in Blvd, I am not overly concerned. If my son outgrows it before I am ready to turn around I will research other options at that point. You cannot go wrong with any of the Birtax seats.

Last but not least, yes I get WIC and it is none of anyones business if I attempted to breastfeed. The minute some high and mighty bitch points out that her tax money pays for my baby to eat to my face I’m probably going to jail. But yes my body failed to produce anything but formilk and my son lost almost 2lbs before I gave into formula.

I believe the glue that holds the whole thing together is DNVGL. They are the trusted, assurance provider that take away the anxiety from things like working with a Chinese company, an unknown startup, or onboarding new tech. In Vechain’s case, all 3 points are valid, so it would take A LOT more than just great tech and partnerships to onboard western companies like BMW. It would take someone that’s respected world wide, has a tremendous reputation of providing certifications, and trusted to deliver on their promise, and that party is DNVGL.

If you have a 2006 BMW X3 and you find your w

If you have a 2006 BMW X3 and you find your windshield washer fluid light keeps coming on, even shortly after you filled it up, you probably have a washer fluid leak. What’s more, it might not be a crack in the washer tank itself. These cars tend to spring leaks in the washer pumps and/or the grommets that hold the pump in the tank. I had mine filled and less than a week later the low fluid light came on. Indeed, the fluid was leaking out slowly, so slowly in fact that it was never reaching the ground because it was evaporating under the hood.

3) No mindless, pro Elon “Tesla will rule the world” fandom. You are free to believe Tesla will in fact make millions of cars each year and dominate the industry. Actually, we encourage such beliefs to be discussed as it provides a nice balance and perspective against our admittedly skeptical slant. But if you want to gush over the greatness of Elon, perhaps r/ElonMusk is better for you.

The Ford commercials that feature SyncWe’ve all seen the commercials from Ford Motor Company that feature the Microsoft Sync system on some of their vehicles. As an owner of one of those vehicles equipped with the Sync system, I can tell you how it actually works for those of you who do not know.

Coverage Yes this is $0 amount. This is all the expenses that I was covered for. This includes multiple tire rotations, windshield cracks, car getting towed. Everytime that I have received a bill, but my insurance has covered it. It is important to note that I would have had to pay for it if I was not insured. For example a windshield repair bill would have an amount of $125 but then a subtraction of $125 as well.

The Verdict: The MR 2 is a surprisingly fuel efficient sports car with a mid engined layout and rear wheel drive performance. With a huge aftermarket following, 바카라사이트 it won’t be difficult to find parts and modifications to spec the car up to wherever you want it. It’s going to be hard to find a better handling car at this price point!

It was something that a doctor had said to Carolina Muscle at a gym, as they worked out alongside one another, that got him rolling things around in his head. As Carolina put it, “He was explaining his viewpoint that he pays too much in taxes. and that the poor and indigent belong that way, they deserve no help from society or more importantly, him. He says he worked hard to get where he is, and that ” they should too.””

Hi! We just had our second baby this week and have unfortunately discovered that when our Chico keyfit 30 (behind passenger side for our newborn ) and FF Graco headwise (behind driver for 3 year old) are installed (putting any of these seats in the middle is impossible, unfortunately, both installed with latch) an adult passenger cannot fit in the middle of both our 08 Honda Civic and 06 BMW X3. We suspected that this would be the case with the civic, but very surprised with the X3 is of course a bigger car and which we use most often and take on longer trips.

Less Room to Swing a CatThe power unit was to have been a cutting edge rotary Wankel engine purchased from General Motors. The car was designed around that engine. Unfortunately GM withdrew, as the Wankel was proving neither reliable nor fuel efficient, and in the wake of the 1974 Arab oil embargo this was now an issue. The engine also produced high amounts of N0x gasses that would not comply with the new emissions regulations. straight six under the hood. It was a tight fit but they squeezed it in. This change compromised the interior space and effectively rendered it a four seater as it necessitated the use of a drive tunnel to get the power to the rear wheels which took up space in the rear seating area. The Wankel which would have been front wheel drive would have needed no such tunnel. The car was still roomy but not as roomy as it might have been.

Answer:If it worked before, it should still work now. Make sure the remote has been learned by the car. Then push and release the learn button on the machine. Go back to the car and push the car’s remote you programmed. If the light bulb on the machine flashes once, it has learned it. Is it possible to program the newer vehicle to a garage door opener without the remote?

Shut the doors on those and its like a bank vault. Engines can for for 300K plus as long as you do routine services. They come in 6 and 8 cylinders. If you want to go Japanese the early 90’s LS400 from Lexus is another car that was over engineered since they were made to compete with the Germans.

I think so, waaaaay too big back to front. We didn’t get a chance to “properly” install it, we put the base in there, buckled it and I held it at the right angle (according to the bubbles) from the drivers seat while DH (dear husband) tried to put the carrier in. We couldnt find a way to adjust the angle otherwise and didnt have the manual. Once in, the passenger seat went back and smashed fully into the carrier and didnt “click” into place, so the passenger seat was now dangerously loose and unlocked. :/

Since you know you have $15k of negative equity already, lawyering up and throwing good money after bad by futilely disputing your signed and likely ironclad BMW Financial lease contract or worse considering rolling your massive negative equity into a new $60 80k rapidly depreciating luxury car (530e) lease will just make your financial problems worse.

The R8, while being more economically priced than the MP4 12C and the 458 Italia off the showroom, is probably more expensive to outfit with options (Audis usually are) nevertheless, its understated looks are perfect for those who don’t wish to be too conspicuous about their wheels but can still cause a stir on track days while saving more fuel (The R8 is more economical than the McLaren or the Ferrari).

I guess the point of that at least in my mind would be that all of the people relying on odd jobs and occasional randomly generated government jobs can have a more reliable means of survival. No more hoping that the next federal, state, or local administration generates projects for you to work on you are guaranteed a certain standard of living as long as you meet a few basic requirements.

I enjoyed my Infiniti, but after four years of operating a rear wheel drive car in snowy New England, I decided that my next car had to be either front wheel drive or all wheel drive. So, I was very excited to learn that Audi now had a super powerful, 3.2 liter, all wheel drive version of the TT.

Worth noting, these are my guesstimates on two cars I don own so I could be wrong on everything. Funny side note the cost of operation of the Model 3 is laughably lower than my GT R. The GT R costs 4x+ per mile vs a P3D(!) But I been pretty good at estimating the operational cost of the GT R so this has been my starting point to understand what the costs of an EV might look like.

Bloomberg had some car engineers tear down a model 3. What they found was that it was over engineered in a way that didn’t benefit the overall product, but made production more complicated and expensive. They found that had Tesla used more traditional manufacturing methods like those of Toyota or Ford, they could have increased profit margins significantly without sacrificing any of the model 3’s safety or structural integrity.

This particular motorcycle is interesting because of its history. It started production in the 1930s and continued in one form or another to be built in Germany until the 1960s. As part of reparations after World War 2, the drawings and some tooling were distributed among the allies. into what became the Harley Davidson Hummer. BSA turned it into the Bantam. the Soviet Union also produced a version. DKW also developed the Schnurle two stroke loop scavenging process which made the deflection piston unnecessary and also developed a very good design for the transfer ports.

The first Mitsubishi Eclipse was sold in 1990, but, like the Celica, the most appealing Eclipse models will be the second through fourth generations (1995 2012). Obvious benefits of these later generations are that they will be newer and carry fewer miles, but another factor to consider is the major styling upgrades that separated the later generations from the first.

8. (Saloon)s are comfortable and lovable cars, and they are also the most common body style. These are commonly 4 door cars with 4+ seats. They are fully covered with a fixed rooftop and have full height all the way to the rear windows. s are also known as ‘saloons’ in British English.

With the Defender, you should be able to fit your CA 65 and Snugride with little trouble. Use seatbelts on all the seats to give the maximum about of room on the vehicle bench. IF they don’t fit together, then you’ll need a Radian to replace the CA. But of course try those 3 seats together with seatbelt installs before you go the Radian route.

This is just one example in HS, but the entire game is full of others. As a whole it makes it much easier for a twitch viewer who is not familiar with the game or missed the first part of a game to turn on a stream and immediately understand the game state and keep up with the rest of the game as it’s played.

Some people will say that you can just go to your fire station or police department. You can It best to look it up because it will tell you where you can get it checked, whether you can drop by/if they have a car seat check once a month or every couple of months/if you have to make an appointment. I live in a metro with 2.4 million people and we only have 21 places to get seats checked. Out of those 21 places, we have 2 you can stop by any day of the week at any time, 2 you can make an appointment for any time during their business hours, and the rest either have monthly/bimonthly/quarterly car seat check fairs. I had to set my appointment 24 days in advance because the children hospital was so booked out. I would suggest figuring out how to get yours checked soon.

This car you will look forward to driving. This is just something that happens with a Tesla. You will want to drive to work just to drive. I driven many types of cars and this is the only one that made me feel like that. Reasoning i think is 1 it is relaxing with the minimalist interior and autopilot. It is exhilarating when i want it to be with the handling and power. I drive when i want and it drives the boring stuff.

Have you ever done multiclass racing before?If you haven I heavily recommend racing in GT3 before going GTE. It sounds like you own the Ferrari GT3, so you done so GT3 racing but only in the Ferrari challenge series. IMSA, in either GTE or GT3, is a completely different beast.If you do a season in the GT3s first, you will gain skills needed to drive the GTE cars later.

Tools for the JobMost of these tools are pretty common in a toolbox. The only ones that I would recommend buying are 1) the 02 sensor socket, part 95045 at Harbor Freight for $7.99 (use the 20% coupon and free flashlight coupon in the paper to get your money’s worth) and 2) a wire stripper; sorry, no tips as where to get that cheap. If you don’t want to use the 02 sensor socket, you can take off the heat shield, held on by five 6 mm Allen head bolts (and one 4 mm I believe), which will give you enough room to work an adjustable wrench down there.

About a week ago I lost my card for food stamps. Got a new one. Cleaned my car, found my old one. Sooo today I went to the grocery store. I went to pay and realized I had my old card. The guy was so rude to me when I came back. I hate how much people change from when you walk up, to when you swipe your card. When I was married it was hard to see such a high percentage of our checks being devoured by insurance and taxes. I hear people talk about the same thing with the young women, how do they do that? In NC, I really don’t think it is possible but that women you were talking about is the stereotype everyone imagens when GA is diccused.

Nearly all my neighbours are farmers and their children have been driving quad bikes, cars and tractors from about 10 years old mainly on private land.I’ve been driving and motorcycling since about 14 and the passion has never left me. For a long time I was the type that if you told me no, I’d want yes more often than not.I understand the comment about an emergency and hero, but while a 12 year old may be able to operate a car, surely they can have little or no knowledge of the rules of the road or other drivers or road conditions.

We tried all the infant seats that were suggested as being “good for small cars” none worked till we came across the Cybex Aton. It fits great in my tiny back seat. Not only does the handle stay in the up position for driving but it is actually a good inch or more shorter front to back than the chicco. The base is also hands down the EASIEST to install either either seatbelt or latch. Seriously, I did it 8 months prego in my tiny car and the thing is more rock solid than any other I’ve seen. Also, the fabric is much nicer IMO (in my opinion) and the seat is one of the lightest out there. It also is capable of fitting on many travel system attachments.

I really didn think it felt like a RWD since I didn feel any sign of losing the rear end under power, only under braking (and thought I read something about “taking advantage of the FWD”, but that must have been the last car I drove, lol). I think I need to downshift later as well, too aggressive downshifting wont help with the rear in a RWD.Ok, straight line braking it is! Turbo lag is a problem I think, I don have a clutch pedal (yet).

Spitballin here.$250K gross $60K taxes (guess

Spitballin here.$250K gross $60K taxes (guess) $37K 401Ks $60K expenses $36K to savings leaves $57K. Sure. Pay it off in a year.Word of caution. I went down this road. Was always frugal. Got to where I could afford it. Got a real nice 5 series just out of its 4 year warranty (new would have been affordable but this seemed like what I wanted at a better value).

I personally find endurance races pretty easy, and super speedways even more so. Your own preferences will vary. With Charger SRT8 I can do 15 18 miles easy. With the Lexus IS F I’ve done 21 miles. The winnings is about 11 14000, which, after quadrupling, is about R$ 44 56000. So if you use the IS F to make bfakn.club 56K, then use the Charger SRT8 to make another 22K, that’s 78K, enough to buy a pretty good car, or do a LOT of repairs. Put both cars into maintenance for an hour and come back and really have fun with the rest of the day’s races. You can use either Shelby GT500 or the BMW M3 GTS. I’ve done 19 miles with the BMW (with quadrupling, about 54000 in a single run) and 23 miles with Shelby (over 70000).

It then took us several days to get a slot at our dealer to get the problem addressed, where the dealer found that there was a gasket in the hood area that had become displaced. (Since being repaired, we have no more leakage issues.)(We did, however, have fogging issues all winter long, as moisture coming from the saturated carpet was a problem!!) (now that we’re into the warmer spring weather, the fogging issue seems to have resolved itself.))

In order to place another above us, we have to consider ourselves as beneath them. While you may respect them or think them worthy of such esteem, in actual fact you are setting your relationship with them up for failure. We hold people that we put on pedestals to a higher standard than we hold ourselves or others. We see them as more than and better than and while this may be true, it is only true in certain areas of their lives and specific arenas that they operate in. In other areas of their lives they have their shortcomings and when you have someone on a pedestal your tendency is to focus only on your own. This has a negative impact on your own sense of self worth and self esteem. You overlook your own attributes, skills and abilities in favour of the other. You cannot effectively work with the other when you are holding yourself back.

One Saturday driving my wife brand new TM3 (AWD, LR, Red, 19s, EAP) was all it took for me to come home that evening, place my order for a P3D and put the Bimmer up for sale (still miss that car, loved every minute of owning it, has always put a smile on my face it was so mechanical, and perfectly so; but, you can stop progress, and god only knows that I do not want to deal with special oil changes, or any oil changes, going to gas stations, worrying about water pumps, cooling down the turbo after hard driving even though they say you don need to but I know better and always babied my cars mechanically, valve adjustments, seals, and so forth).

Other considerations Be sure to ask your cabinet retailer about things such as replacements, out of stocks, and damages. For instance, if your son breaks a door after six months and you request a replacement door, do you have to purchase an entire cabinet? Probably. What happens if your sink base cabinet is out of stock and you need everything installed next Wednesday? How long will you need to wait for the replacement?

Most of the initial draft was is sourced from an editor written in the distinctive initials “MLC”. At the time, Motorsport Magazine enforced a policy to use initials in the fear that rival publishers poach their staff. We later learnt (and now confirmed) that “MLC” stands for “Michael Cotton” thanks to this archival list here.

From 1990 1993, Acura sold the second generation Integra, perhaps the most popular among enthusiasts. You’ll want to find one with the 1.8 L engine producing 130 hp or the top level GS R Integra which was first introduced in 1992. Featuring Honda’s VTEC (Variable valve Timing and lift Electronic Control), the GS R’s engine produced160 hp and proved to be a favorite for tuners and enthusiast drivers alike.

Finishes In an effort to keep things inexpensive, most importers stock a selection of 6 8 cabinet doors and styles/finishes. You can’t mix and match. If you are fond of the “Brighton” door, you had better reconcile yourself to the finish it comes in. The finishes are typically water based or use atypical solvent properties, so repair can be a problem if you need to touch up a scratch. It’s not uncommon for the finish to wipe right off with a rag that has the repair material on it. Stains are always applied with spray equipment as opposed to wiped on with a rag, an issue which often leads to color drift from batch to batch and different colors from piece to piece (such as a filler compared to a door). Glazes are applied with a marker pen as opposed to true glazing which is wiped on the whole surface and then wiped back off and left to hang in the profiles.

You can have a great driving experience with modern convertibles. These are basically small cars with large, retractable sunroofs which are made up of high quality textiles. Cabrio coaches were very popular in Germany in the 1930s. These cars are a little less expensive than full convertibles due to their single body frames.

IntroductionBuying your first car can be an exhilarating experience, but it can also be a bit frustrating. Young driving enthusiasts often have a great deal of difficulty finding cars that are both affordable and fun to drive. On top of your budget and the car’s cool factor, its practicality and reliability have to be considered. For example, you can buy a Porsche 944 for less than ten grand, but insuring and keeping the car running will more often than not push the cost of ownership out of range for the average student.

Plus, I’ve had a fascination with all things German for quite some time. German was my college major for a couple years, back when I thought of being a UN interpreter. I have (or had) family living in Germany, and I have backpacked through the cities there. I thought I would live there one day. I heard angels sing when I stood in the Olympic Village and gazed upon the four cylindrical pillars of BMW Headquarters in Munich.

Luxury cars just don have the appeal to us that they used to. I don need the shit I thought I used to need, and I don even really want it. Seems like the cost is exponentially higher for a moderate amount of luxury features. There just isn any value there, but I guess that really isn their goal either.But thank you, and noted.

Sync is basically a user interfaced computer program built into most Ford vehicles including the Ford Fusion, Focus, Lincoln, or Mercury vehicles.

London based fan Peter Simms has owned his 1976 R90S for 30 years, and has ridden it more than 200,000 miles. “I use it virtually every day, which, given its age, bears testament to the superb build quality. I have travelled all over Europe on it and can’t think of a bike, new or old, that could possibly replace it. It’s comfortable, fast, beautifully made and has bags of character.”

Whether it is your boss, a movie star, a friend, your partner, your spouse, or your children putting people on a pedestal is much different than holding someone in high regard. While there may be many attributes and abilities that you admire in another, putting them on a pedestal because they display certain traits serves neither yourself or the other.

Raiola presents the proposed contract. The bidding clubs balk at the terms. Several clubs say to Raiola that they instead offer de Ligt a top 10 center back salary with no annual increase, and by the way they increase Raiola agent fee to 25m euros. Anyone that played FM knows this strategy well.

Plus dispatching their drivers to SF is a stupid idea. Sure, you could say it’s faster, and with a higher talent level than F2, but the cars are also much harder to adapt to, there is less relevance to F1 (Push to pass vs DRS, different tyres, only sharing 1 circuit vs all F2 circuits).

Not “only in South Africa”, even Gordon Brown is being hauled over the coals for spending too much government money on personal items. Seems all politicians are the same worldwide. We are kidding ourselves in voting for their election “promises”. Every politician of every creed only cares about lining their own pockets and then they incite us with their pretty speeches (never written by themselves)to turn against each other because of all the problems they have created. Booooo to all politicians and their greed. Good luck to every private citizen you’re on your own, mate!

In places they literally have stated they are cheapening materials. For example the F10 using steel vs aluminum in the chassis. Cheaper but more weight. You also are correct but more Inline with my thinking. For example the ZF8 transmission is in every bmw in the line up from suv to M5. It’s a nice commuter transmission but doesn’t have any business being in the M5 IMO. But bmw made ZFs biggest transmission purchase in the companies history to you can imagine the discount on a per unit basis for that.

We have two Diono Radian RXTs and I’m not sure what the third carseat is. I’m thinking a Graco or Safety 1st? All three are across in the backseat. One Radian is forward facing my 3 year old on the passenger side, the other Radian is rear facing in the middle for the baby and the third car seat (which will not be in there all the time) is forward facing his 2.5 year old on the driver side. I have a Kia Sorento, but anyone will tell you those Diono Radians are super slim and work well in a lot of vehicles.

Today those fuels are still offered at gas stations and the government forces gas producers to mix it into the gasoline (heavily jeopardizing the overall gasoline quality). Other than that, there is an equation that gas stations put up showing when its better to buy biofuels than gasoline. I never seen the equation pointing towards them.

8. (Saloon)s are comfortable and lovable cars, and they are also the most common body style. These are commonly 4 door cars with 4+ seats. They are fully covered with a fixed rooftop and have full height all the way to the rear windows. s are also known as ‘saloons’ in British English.

Idea 6: Children and Teens Can Sell Unwanted Clothes, Toys, and Other ItemsWith the parents’ permission, children and teens can sell unwanted items. This will usually require parental supervision and guidance. While this may not be a business opportunity for young children, it’s a great way for a teenager to earn quick cash.

Thus far the free version has worked great with my smartphone and has connected to the Bluetooth adapter without issue. It allowed me to read real time information with the cars running and also to read any logged or pending fault codes. I also was able to clear codes and get the CEL light to turn off (see Precautions and Disclaimer on doing this below). Here are the steps, which might vary depending on your phone:

My i3 has the 20″ tires without winter tires, you will need to use Traction Control, drive carefully and slower than you probably used to. I don feel like the car is going to lose control on straights; its mostly in turning in snow/ice and definitely resistant braking gives the whole car a shimmy slide move which is disconcerting. My rear wheel drive M3 with blizzaks was almost like driving with an SUV in snow much more control.

A friend of mine had two Grand Nationals, and they were incredible cars. Both were stolen and subsequently wrecked. I’ve had an ’84 Camaro that I built up from nothing and an ’04 GTO (my first car was a 1980 Jeep Wagoneer), but I think my true interest remains in the pre ECU General Motors muscle cars.

To the best of my knowledge, I am no more of a jerk or sheep now that I have my dream car than I was when I was rocking cassette tapes in my beater. It’d be sort of stupid to assume any different about someone else just because of their car. Why not? Everyone does. It can be fun.

They use the 8 series for marketing reasons it the car they want to sell with that program. This has been brought up many times before. What the point in spending millions on a racing program without a plan to get a return on that investment?This is literally what I meant with “Sure, I rather see the M4 as a GTE car but, it completely reasonable why they aren using that.” so not sure what the point.

“The Portofino is the best selling Ferrari now in terms of volume,” he said. “The SF90 is a clear indication to push the brand away from trying to recruit entry level buyers, a sector where there is a lot of competition. New management has taken a smarter approach to realizing the potential of the business.”

Assembly While the cam locks are somewhat avoidable in the import cabinets, there are a few that offer a true dado assembly and require glues and fasteners that are nailed or screwed on. Some even use pocket screws to hold the cabinet together. While this seems like a minor point, it’s actually huge. Over time, as wood expands and contracts and cabinet contents shift, inferior construction will almost always lead to separation of cabinet panels, cabinets peeling from the wall and other shocking developments. There is one American Made RTA cabinet (made by Conestoga Wood Specialties) that even offers a really unique sliding dovetail technology where the wood panels (top/bottom and sides) dovetail together so that the cabinet literally cannot fall apart once assembled.

Also, compare offers for the same car across various dealerships near you. Is one dealer offering the car for $22k OTD? But another one closer to you is only offering $23k OTD? Then throw a counteroffer at the second dealer for $22k OTD, knowing full well that $22k OTD is an achievable price (since first dealer already offered it).

Dealerships aren’t everywhere. In my case, the closest dealership is about an hour and a half away. It is certainly a pain to drive to. I am lucky that I have one that close. Other people may have to travel hours to get to a Mini dealership. If you do buy a car, then ensure that you learn about your warranty. The flatbed service they offer to pickup your Mini is only for a limited area, and even getting a rental while your car is being repaired can be limited in how far you can drive it.

To give you an example of why this situation is even detrimental, and why I wouldn want her as a ref. All it takes is one second of distraction in all sorts of sports, to fuck up. A good example of this, is that video of the rally driver who gets mooned by some idiot rally fan, gets distracted for half a second, and literally flips their car. If there was a professional video game player that didn want tits bouncing around them because they needed to concentrate, any weeb would instantly get what I talking about. Understand, that this is what you arguing against.

It fairly easy to drive on the limit, but is

It fairly easy to drive on the limit, but is quite understeer y so needs a good set up to make the most out of it. For that reason, it a great car to learn car setup.The Audi is very nimble but is not as stable and forgiving as the Merc, and I think it has a tendency to oversteer on corner exit (I think).

Some people seem to think as soon as they put it on, that it means “push over! Car coming through!!” And you have to give way, which isn’t right, it doesn’t give you instant right of way. and looking BEFORE turning into a lane or out of a junction AFTER using indictor and THEN deciding if it’s safe or not, or if that person has noticed you and let’s you pass!

How hard is it to understand that looking at bouncing tits can make someone think about sex? I feel like I literally talking to some sort of early general AI that doesn truly understand anything yet but is pretty good at writing words to seem like it can form thoughts. This is seriously fucked. Did no one teach you how to critically think??

A better drive than most.I also like early 5 series BMW’s but you need to know about their design faults. You can buy a well sorted one if you know what you are doing.I have listed the design faults for each series on my BMW hubs.I had an early Benz that was very well built, but am not a fan of the Mercedes Benz drive.

The great recession is still in progress and till it’s gonna be there for quite sometime. It has affected each and everyone of us. But I was wondering what are the things that we learned (or are still learning) from the meltdown. I personally have learned two things;1. We all must have savings, no.

In stark contrast to the Jaguar, we have the Porsche Cayman R. Porsche is synonymous with motorsports racetrack performance, and that is exactly what the Cayman R is built for. When building the R version of its popular Cayman sports car, Porsche decided to cut weight instead of adding lots of power to achieve the desired performance goals. The Cayman R is the only member of this list under 3,000 pounds and weighs in at more than 1,000 pounds lighter than the XK R. The Cayman and the Jag are perfect foils for each other; the XK R is everything that the Cayman is not, and vice versa. While the Jaguar is immensely powerful and luxurious (aka heavy) the Cayman is underwhelming on the spec sheet (more than 200hp fewer than our winner) but is extremely focused and lightweight. One has only to sit inside the cockpit to know that the R is all about performance. To save weight, Porsche replaced traditional door handles with fabric straps. The sport bucket seats hold the driver in place during hard cornering and save 26 pounds. Air conditioning is an optional extra. On a $60,000 Porsche!

You know how to pass the slower GT3s because you have experience driving one, meaning you can predict and anticipate what they going to do at a certain moment etc. The races are also 3x the length and include a pitstop, and the guys racing the GTE cars are crazy fast no lie, they some of the best drivers on iRacing IMO.The GTE cars are also a lot, lot harder to drive.

The third generation MR 2 (1999 2007) was called the MR 2 Spyder, or MR S in some markets. It was only sold as a true convertible and had only one engine option a 1.8 L inline 4 with 138 hp. While the engine was less powerful than that of the previous generation (especially the turbo), the car’s lightness allowed it to perform equally well as cars with more power. A third generation MR 2 is going to run you about 8 18k.

However, the person who first developed a rotor was Abraham Louis Perrelet (1729 1826), one of Switzerland’s greatest watchmakers of all time, considered the father of the automatic watch. He introduced the concept in 1770 and was way ahead of his time since the invention was better suited to wristwatches and Perrelet lived in the pocket watch era. Obviously, the watches couldn’t move in pockets enough to wind the mainspring, so the rotor system didn’t perform well. Another Swiss watchmaker, Abraham Louis Breguet (1747 1823) improved self winding watches and named them “perpetuelles” (the likely source of Rolex’s term). Other watchmaking greats of the 19th century advanced the concept. But it wasn’t until World War I that Rolex perfected its system and automatic watches became popular.

It absolutely is a luxury car. Perhaps not the base model with manual seats and no heated seats. A average selling price of 50k and premium features all the way around. How can you argue it isn doesn have ventilated seats, a heated steering wheel, the suspension isn what I expect in a luxury car, the car is noisier than a typical luxury car, the seats are not like that of a typical luxury style car, the interior finishes don scream luxury to me either. Don get me wrong the model 3 is absolutely a premium car. I just don feel it crossed the line into luxury. I also don feel that entry level BMWs, Audis, Acuras or Mercs fall into that category either. Premium, yes. Luxury, no. Luxury is getting into a super comfortable seat you melt into, feel like you are riding on a cloud, surrounded by luxurious finishes and a nice quite ride. The model 3 is a terrifically fun car to drive, but it isn luxury. It a terrific car, and a really fun one to drive, but I don know how anyone can call it luxury.

You’re 100% correct. I’m just addressing the culture as a whole and how it’s limiting Tesla as a company. All brands have bad apples but in most cases it doesn’t have the kind of impact that it does with Tesla. At least in my opinion. Porsche owners are right behind Tesla owners. In fact, one thing I’ve come to learn since buying the GT3 is that most Porsche owners are Porsche enthusiasts, not car enthusiasts. That’s especially true for the GT cars.

I try to avoid being in anyone blind spot as much as possible: never merge into a lane in a way that would put you in their blind spot, if the road isn crowded then switch lanes so you won be in their blind spot, speed up to be in their blind spot for as little time as possible, never count on anyone using their turn signals. I mean, how would I feel if somebody come runnin in the gym and bust me in my ass while I on the treadmill? Then I saw this snarling beast guy, and I noticed he had a tissue in his hand, and I realizing, y he not snarling, he sneezing. Y ain no real threat there. Then I saw little Tiffany. I thinking, y eight year old white girl, middle of the ghetto, bunch of monsters, this time of night with quantum physics books? She about to start some shit, Zed. She about eight years old, those books are WAY too advanced for her. If you ask me, I say she up to something.

With their gentle power delivery, shaft drive and proven reliability, these machines established BMW as a maker of motorcycles for covering large distances in comfort, both as standard two wheelers and when hooked up to luxurious sidecars by the likes of Steib or Stoye. One such R61 withStoye sidecar made $24,725 when it crossed the block at Bonhams in Las Vegas earlier this year and an R60/2 and Steib pairing made $17,550 as far back as 2007.

This particular motorcycle is interesting because of its history. It started production in the 1930s and continued in one form or another to be built in Germany until the 1960s. As part of reparations after World War 2, the drawings and some tooling were distributed among the allies. into what became the Harley Davidson Hummer. BSA turned it into the Bantam. the Soviet Union also produced a version. DKW also developed the Schnurle two stroke loop scavenging process which made the deflection piston unnecessary and also developed a very good design for the transfer ports.

BMWs in general are expensive to maintain due to parts cost and increased hourly rates since the cars are priced higher than average to begin with. If you want a diesel car you either get an MB, BMW, Jaguar, or Chevy Cobalt. Only the Chevy Cobalt will be cheap to maintain, but finding a quality mechanic to maintain the diesel in the Chevy may prove difficult.

Because here’s what I generally think. Hard work pays. That’s the motto I try to live my life by. Work hard, make a contribution, and it will pay off one way or another. Nothing in life should be a cakewalk. Nothing should be handed down on a silver platter. Everything should be hard. Everything should be a challenge, and if you get somewhere and you achieve something, by God you should have a trail of blood, sweat, and tears in a long path behind you.

Last week the weather was nice so I tried to send the departure times to the car using the Connected app on my iPhone, and it failed. I did manage to get the climatize feature to work once, from the old i Remote app, but it also has failed every time I tried to send the departure times to the car.

Warhol collaborated with a variety of people in his projects, and liked to surround himself with bohemian eccentrics. Andy Warhol was openly gay at a time when few admitted to being gay. David Bowie admits to being influenced by Warhol, and during the 1970’s, Warhol concentrated on portrait paintings of celebrities. Warhol was the founder of Interview Magazine, and his studio in New York, called The Factory, was a great meeting place for intellectuals, play rights, drag queens, wealthy patrons, and his much loved celebrities. dollars in 1963. He loved to party at Studio 54 and other spots where the elite loved to play. A lot of people called him a “business artist,” but Andy Warhol had a deep love affair with glamour, and sometimes even glamorous people use the same products regular people do.

They probably tweak the pricing after the tax rebate is reduced, but it take time and it probably won be as straight forward as (all prices $1000). So you be stuck in a waiting game after that. If you keep your eyes out between July December you probably be able to recoup most of the tax rebate that you missed, but it ridiculous that you have to even consider that.

Remember when X was supposed to be the launch engine of the 2019 Mazda3? A year later we still have no idea if and when it coming to America. Got a feeling that it just not economically viable in markets where they are still meeting regulations (they specifically said that there was no rush to bring it to America because gasoline is cheap and people don care).

I am almost positive we are going to get the Britax Roundabout 55 but just wanted to hear any reviews from people that might already have one. I’ve researched (until my eyes crossed pratically) about every car seat out there and there seems to be no comparison with the Britax’s safety record and reliability. We plan on getting 2 one for my car an SUV but also one for my dh’s car. He drives a BMW 3 series so the size is going to be important to be able to get it in rear facing into his car. Anyone want to give me their 2 cents or experience?

This car you will look forward to driving. This is just something that happens with a Tesla. You will want to drive to work just to drive. I driven many types of cars and this is the only one that made me feel like that. Reasoning i think is 1 it is relaxing with the minimalist interior and autopilot. It is exhilarating when i want it to be with the handling and power. I drive when i want and it drives the boring stuff.

Yes. Take a look at the new Ford eco engine. It is a one liter engine that outputs the same power as a much more powerful past engine and will easily do 3 times the MPG and will mostly be available in Europe in the ford Mondeo, C Max and Focus. Its directly connected to fuel and the oil companies.

The Verdict: The Mazda Miata provides the handling capability of much more expensive sports cars in an affordable package. While it isn’t practical and won’t carry more than one passenger, this is the best performing sports car in its price range. If you need something practical, this isn’t the car for you. But if you are looking for a car that you can use as a daily driver and also take to the Autocross course and have success, you’ll want to take a serious look at a Miata!

Since you mentioned sports/alcohol. I throw this out there: I pretty involved with the soccer community in the upstate. The US Women are playing in the world cup and there are watch parties you can go to and have a good team. The American Outlaws meet at Growler Haus in the Village of West Greenville and we be there Thursday for the 3pm game (and the men game tomorrow at 10pm).

Zao is not a good choice for ranked this season because you most impactful when maximizing your concealment and either lurking 4 5 km behind your DDs or flanking and catching cruisers off guard with AP volleys and farming BBs that have their guns pointed elsewhere. The problem is you get hard countered by a CV because they can permaspot you once your location is known, and your AA is pretty bad (not that any solo cruiser can defend against repeated CV strikes). Henri is better because concealment is not a big deal, you can use IFHE to burn down BBs incredibly fast, reload booster is OP, and it much faster and tankier.

Either way, I’m thinking of possibly a Britax or Radian XT brand for me. There are so many things to consider, including whether I want an infant seat or convertible seat and if I want it to be compatible with the stroller. Also, since we may get 2 maybe we’ll get one infant and one convertible??? Or maybe we’ll share for a while and then get a 2nd one later when the baby gets bigger. So much ladies, my head is about to explode.

Other considerations Be sure to ask your cabinet retailer about things such as replacements, out of stocks, and damages. For instance, if your son breaks a door after six months and you request a replacement door, do you have to purchase an entire cabinet? Probably. What happens if your sink base cabinet is out of stock and you need everything installed next Wednesday? How long will you need to wait for the replacement?

As we had owned a Honda Civic that we got 210,000 mi. out of, and drove for free for 11 yrs., and after just purchasing another one for my wife, which she loves, I felt that I had to investigate the Fit, and compare it to other, similar types of vehicles.

Unlike the 458 Italia and the McLaren, the R8 is available in a choice of two engines (either a 4.2 Litre V8 which I believe is derived from the one used in the RS4 or a Lamborghini derived 5 Litre V10). The R8 is also 온라인카지노 available either a soft top Spyder Convertible or a hard top is only available in limited colors (with white and black R8’s with Carbon fiber tinsel on their body paints being the most popular choice with buyers).

The Coccoro needs a “pool noodle” in a lot of vehicles, so be prepared for that. If you don’t like the pool noodle idea, you can order a “wedge” from Combi that’s kind of the same thing, but shaped specifically for the Combi brand seats. I would see how it fits in your car before ordering anything special, though.

Great gas mileage. Even though these cars use premium gas, it does offer decent gas mileage. I only have to fill up my tank once a month, and that is driving to and from work as well as other places around town. I can do about six to seven hours of solid freeway driving before needing a fill up.

3) Pete Buttigieg. Now I going to preemptively defend his 3 slot by saying, I don think he in any way qualified to be President. That being said, he the top contender for VP. He carries himself extremely well with very desirable VP traits. He friendly, humble, charming, charismatic with solid understanding of a surprising range of issues. His few solutions were mediocre, but he seemed pretty washy on taking hard stances anyway. It obvious he doesn have the experience of many people on the stage, but he a solid campaigner from a very critical state; which is the dream scenario for a VP pick.

I’d like to hear some ideas from other Hubbers. Given those criteria (15+ years old, good condition, under $20,000), what vehicle would you buy and why?Ross Kposted 8 years agoI would recommend a Mercedes E Class from 90 94. These cars were over engineered and built like tanks. Nothing like Benz’s of today.

Obviously BMW is going to use their most expensive, flagship “sporty car” to go against more exlusive, prestigious manufacturers (or cars in case of the Ford GT).Yes, it true about the BoP.Yeah they said that they had a 6 month setback because of the veto, but I suggest don take it too strictly that.

This will help you getting a better feel for the car balance, know where the limit of the grip is and you might even find a better/faster line down the track.Secondly, the most of the z4 weight is in the back, so that why it so happy to throw that beautiful fat ass around like it some Shaquina from the hood.

I’ve written hubs like, “Corporate Boards Are Glorified Thieves,” and yes, I know that the word “theifs” is misspelled (hey, even an unskilled political non elite opinion guy like me can be a sucker for a little keyword stuff). Another one I called, “The Jobless Are Not Lazy,” and another one is titled, “Another Example Of An Overpaid CEO,” which is on point about the whole concept of CEO pay, and severence packages which are akin to winning the lottery, but focuses on the exorbitant severence package former HP CEO Mark Hurd enjoyed after resigning his post due to the discovery of falsified expense reports to cover up an affair he had supposedly with a female contractor, and an accusation of sexual harassment.

I think there is too much fuss going on about, but since you commented you might as well admit yours kinda was wrong there. You think basketball but there is volleyball, some think tennis but there is ping pong. Making same advance ladders in two different sports and similarsing them (in whatever, prize $, or reward potential) does not guarantee less popular to suddenly become on par with the other.

Hardware Make sure the glides are of a good quality and are soft close (a standard these days). Ask your retailer how they handle requests for broken glides and hardware a year or years down the road. As for hinges, are they self closing? Are they of good quality? The hinge on your door actuates a lot in the course of its life, and you do not want to be constantly adjusting the hinges or replacing them.

Thank you for your reply Nightstorm_NoS, my budget was 1/2 off that, and I know people are going to say that if you have a low budget you should steer clear from a BMW, electric or not. Every one in my neighborhood it seems has now taken delivery of their model 3 has they are all over the place. It a cool car but it is by no mean a city car, which is what I need. We have a ICE Suv for long range, for now. I have taken delivery of the i3 REX and I can say for sure, I would have been frustrated but the Bev version. Consider it cheating but the Rex extender has proven so far to be worth the extra $$. I coded the car and I have driven with 174 miles of range, light foot and taking advantage of steep downhills with battery Soc hold. I can charge or I can pump, having flexibility is sure sweet.

But while overindulging in Chteau Ptrus may have its dangers, that’s where the comparison ends. Accurate statistics are impossible to obtain, but estimates suggest that between three and 12 deaths per year occur during public days, and it is almost inevitable that you will see at least one accident per lap.

It would be a shame, yes it a big car, but it only had one season. It takes more than a season sometimes for a car to reach it stride.There exceptions, some vehicles are competitive out of the gate, the Mustang in V8 supercars in 2019 (although Dick Johnson Racing/Penske generally does not mess around when they can commit), but it takes a while.

The 458 is also the first Ferrari to completely get rid of all stalks behind the steering wheel of the car and replace daily driver functions like indicating, turning the headlights on and off and the wiper blades into buttons on the steering wheel of the car a first for almost any mainstream manufacturer.

I meant that it won be a BMW. It would basically just be another generic electric vehicle and there are plenty of them out there already. There are plenty of things to make them a BMW, from the style of the exterior, to the quality of the materials for the interior, the fit and finish, the performance, the software for the infotainment etc. It pretty wild to say they can make distinctively BMW ICE cars but EVs would somehow be bland and generic. WTF

I wish you luck in overcoming your suicidal thoughts and/or desires. I hope you understand that it not normal to want to die, and that while you may feel like you rationally considering things, the most likely possibility is that you are not, and you owe it to yourself to explore every opportunity to get better. There is hope. Even for me.

10) Eric Swalwell. So major props for putting Biden and Bernie on the defensive. He everything I like about as young candidate and everything I don like about a young candidate. He quick and has the California esque star power persona. But he skin deep in his policy depth and came off inexperienced all in all.

Then, cash assistance is now called work first. You get like 200 bucks a MONTH for a family of 3 but you have are required to look for a job atleast 25 hours a week. And to top it off, if you pos SD (sperm donor) does pay child support the state takes it as rembursement till what they gave you is paid back.

Indeed, the Alpina engineering centre is so sophisticated that it houses eight dynamometers kitrepresenting an investment of more than 12m that are used to assess the output of the specially modified, always twin turbocharged Alpina engines. These engines are designed to provide not just a high top speed, but surprising improvements in fuel economy and the greater pulling power that gives the cars both astonishing acceleration and effortless long distance cruising ability. Every Alpina also gets modified electronics, an upgraded gearbox, aerodynamic enhancements, highly adaptable suspension that radically improves both handling andcomfort, and a signature touch, this a set ofhighly distinctive 20 spoke wheels.

This morning my MIL (mother in law) got into a small accident with DS (dear son) in the car. He’s fine, but now we need to get new car seats (might as well get the convertibles now). DS (dear son) is four months old and about 16 pounds and I’m not sure about how long he is, but he has short legs like we do. We want something that will keep him rear facing for a long time, so at least 40 pounds rf. DH (dear husband) has a 2002 BMW X5, I have a 2002 Mitsubishi Galant and MIL (mother in law) has a small sedan. She and I would share the our convertible as our cars would be used the least amount of time. What are your recommendations?

The Defender is a great narrow seat for 3 across that’s really budget friendly. Keeps just about every child in a 5 point harness until they are at an appropriate booster age (5 6 years old). My almost 6yo twin sibs are both in Defenders with at least 1 2 years left before they outgrow the harness mode.

On the used market electric cars are a steal for the same reason to. A new gen leaf will be a top contender for me if the prices fall dramatically when lease turn ins flood the market. You get cheap commuting/errand driving within your electric range. You get the same go anywhere fuel anywhere road trip capability. Cost splits the difference between EV and ICE, but you still get a fairly large tax credit. Also, you can make 5 PHEVs with the batteries it would take to make 1 BEV, which is noteworthy in the face of no reprieve in sight to the limited supply of raw materials, as well as limited supply of manufacturing capacity (this is mostly a human issue not enough trained professionals. not readily solved by just “build more factories.”).

2) Elizabeth Warren. She Batman if Harris is Superman. She brilliant and nuanced and could eloquently make her point in a wise educator kind of way but also toggle passion and came off very charming as well. Also lots of detailed solution proposals across a wide variety of topics and none of them anchor positions.

What’s wrong with my car?My Honda CR V begins to overheat when I break (waiting in the drive thru line, traffic, traffic light, etc.) and has been doing it for the past couple of months. Only when I drive will it blast cold air. I’m not sure what I need to check or what I need to replace.

The new officer is trained to take command and expects immediate obedience from a citizen, and a citizen has no rights at all during the situation. That’s what we saw in the Boston neighborhood as cops were searching for the Marathon bomber. People were ordered out of their homes by yelling and shoving officers, with no regard at all for their rights as American citizens. That would not have happened a few decades ago. I don’t think it should be happening today.

The law is that it illegal to refuse to submit to the sobriety tests. That does not compel you to actually submit to the search (blood test). It simply means you will be charged with an additional crime and you will likely have your license suspended. A warrant is still required to compel you to give a blood sample. If the police have actual reason to suspect you been drinking and driving is not particularly difficult to obtain a warrant to draw blood. The police don get to just skip steps because it easier. That how you get police railroading people who have not actually committed a crime.

I torn about this stuff. There are a lot of things that are really insensative to say or do, but asking a couple you plan to have kids? doesnt seem offensive to me. Its only a loaded question or insensative if the other person is uncomfortable, and maybe they wont be.

I’ve been driving for almost 20 years accident free. That translates to about 7,300 days of driving genius, with a substantial dose of switching to different sides of the road as I changed continents. So I take a measure of pride in my safe driving record, especially considering some of the places I have driven in. Not surprisingly, the German registration rules required me to obtain my own third party insurance from a German based insurer before my car registration would be processed. But imagine my surprise when I learned that no German insurer would recognise my driving record. Despite going to every major insurer in Germany, the answer was always the same: We do not accept insurance records outside of the European economic area. With no way to verify my insurance history, the quotes I received were sky high almost 30% of the vehicle’s value annually and all of that money for just third party insurance coverage. I was beyond words. The bureaucratic machine had busted me down to an 18 year old, albeit without the youth to match.

Convenient that only the ones that you say ar

Convenient that only the ones that you say are reputable just happen to prove your point. You even posted a CNBC article, which I thought was the equivalent of a four letter word on this sub. Even Bjorn doesn consider the model 3 a luxury car. If the S is lacking luxury features, how is the stripped down model 3 going to be luxury?

Really not 카지노사이트 sure why you’ve been downvoted. I can’t stand Ticktum, and I’m more than happy to see him gone, but it’s yet another example of Red Bull pulling the trigger too soon. Drivers (all sportsmen) have dips in form, they should be given a chance to work through it. Clearly there was enough they saw in Ticktum to give him a shot despite all the baggage, so (as much as I’m glad they haven’t) they really should have given him a chance to reach that potential again. As with half a dozen drivers in the last couple of years.

I am often asked “How could you improve the BMW?” and I say “Why mess with perfection?” But if I was going to change it I’d take the boot out and replace it with a rotisserie oven. ‘Cos driving this baby makes you hungry! Although when you can go from 0 to 60 in six seconds Nando’s is only a foot to the floor away!

All to the detriment of rUK. Those parties shat the bed on that one. The currency is pegged to the value of Scotland’s natural resources. The gesture of a currency union with rUK was a fucking gift to London which they threw back in our faces. I don’t see such a kindness being offered again.

With regard to the charging and range situations, it not a phenomenon unique to the Bolt, it applies to all other pure EVs. Charging and range limitations are really big negatives for a large number of car owners in this country. The USA is a huge place with a petroleum based car culture going back since almost the beginning of the automobile. While I would bet long road trips are infrequent for most car owners, their place in our psyche is larger than in real life. family vacations, emergency last minute dashes across hundreds (or even thousands) of miles, college travel (prospective college visits, move in day, spring break, et al), distant special events (concerts, sports, etc) are all disproportionately enshrined in our collective conscious compared to our daily commutes. pure EVs just can fill this need yet. they will get there with time, but until then, it is unreasonable to pretend it not a significant drawback. There is really no point in trying to convince someone to buy an EV by downplaying this fact. they are great second cars, and they are great cars for people who are fed up with big oil/climate change/high gas prices, and hence willing to adjust their lifestyle as necessary. for most everyone else, hybrids and ICE vehicles are a much safer bet, and a much easier sell.

BMW Transfer Case Actuator Motor Gear Problem in DetailSo what’s going on inside the transfer case actuator motor? In short, there is a nylon (ie: plasticky) gear inside the motor that is turned by a metal worm gear (a screw). Over time the nylon part gets worn down and stripped and does not turn any more. See the photos.

If you are a passive aggressive jerk and start games off demanding this or that or take the courier 11 times and flame people for it, consistently make terrible decisions and aren at least apologetic, then yeah reports matter a little bit, because your behavior score will trend downwards and you get lower quality matches with more people like you.

:)Also. there are edge cases where the BEV version can do “more”. If you got available and reliable L2 charging at work, for example, you could easily extend your commute range. If you live in a big city or region with a nice DC fast charge network, you can pretty easily use the car for cross city or city to city journeys, using fast charging to top you off (a 10 20 minute top off on a DC fast charger gets you quite a bit of extra range).

I have navigation info projected on the windshield when using the default Gps but not when using CarPlay.You must also understand that from the main os’s POV CarPlay is just a single other screen.Siri integration is okay for basic commands. Maps is okay with updated traffic information.Problem is you can’t use Siri in multiple languages which limit some more advanced features like dictating text in your native language if you want siri in English.

I have an iPhone, so does 23726193938 other people. I have a designer bracelet I received for my 18th birthday, my purse is coach but I got it at an outlet mall 4 years ago (it’s still my every day purse) I’m on GA!!

Less frequent maintenance. A Mini doesn’t need an oil change or regular maintenance done every few months like other cars. Instead, you can go two years before having the car checked out. With the standard three year warranty, you can take it to a Mini dealership for it’s first maintenance. However, I like to get my oil changed sooner somewhere else just so it can have clean oil.

For a long time people have put professionals on a pedestal based on nothing more that a title and some credentials. Neither says anything about the kind of person they are. If a professional said a thing was thus and so, it was law and people have operated on professional opinions often to their great determent. Further it is impossible to work with someone else when you have them elevated to some lofty, out of reach position. It makes communicating with them extremely awkward and uncomfortable if not impossible. People who are on pedestals are very hard to get hold of.

The car was unveiled inside the belly of a cargo plane at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. Inside, BMW’s executives displayed working versions of some of the technologies being considered for the car, including touch sensitive fabrics and interactive projections. As with any concept vehicle, it’s not yet clear which aspects or capabilities will actually be in the production version.

She found out during the filming of Evita that she was pregnant with her daughter Lourdes, with Carlos Leon, her personal trainer. Madonna is not a terrific singer, or the most beautiful woman around, but she knows how to market herself, and how to handle her money. When she wrote her 1998 album Ray of Light, she was interested in Eastern Mysticism and the Kabbalah, and claims that her perception of life changed quite a bit.

For the sliding it to another point thing. In my mom’s accord, the place on the vehicle seat track where I could fit the D ring was a few inches toward the front of the vehicle. Once I got the strap threaded through, I was able to slide it further back towards the end of the seat track. There wasn’t enough space to thread the D ring at that point, but there was enough room for the strap portion to slide in between the track and the vehicle there.

For the article. I just purchased a 2007 BMW X3 with 137k miles. I started noticing the windshield fluid has been leaking to the ground and the low windshield fluid indicator came up on dashboard. I couldn’t figure out which of the washer fluid pumps was leaking so I bought two and replaced both of them. The installation was the easy part. However, when I tested front and back pumps no water came out. I then reinstalled the two old pumps to see if the windshield fluid would spray, but this also did not work. I can’t figure out what I did wrong and this is very frustrating. Can anyone please provide any suggestions? Thank you!3 years ago

Squeaky BrakesI learned after I had the car for six months, that squeaky brakes are considered normal for the TT. I had brought the car in for some normal maintenance and asked them to check my brakes. I noticed that almost every time I braked, especially in colder weather, I heard a loud squeak.

The BMW Concept 8 Series is a highly assured product, it looks already as if it owns the roads it will drive on. “You have to be confident in design,” says Starke, “but that sureness comes from hard work and constant observation. It is very difficult to separate the job from the life.” In her life, as one of the increasing number of womenwho fashion the look and feel of BMW cars, she is looking at our lives: specifically urban, increasingly mobile. The paramount design input is from people, whether customers or not. The mission is to understand how we live, how we will live, what our needs are.

And that really what it comes down to for me. And this is just my opinion. The Model 3P is a lot like an Audi RS car. It exceptionally quick and genuinely very responsive when you hustle it, but it feels very clinical. You know it the electronics getting you around that track. Great sports sedans like the Giulia, M3, and even to a lesser extent the C43, allow roads and tracks to unfurl like a ribbon before you. The car gracefully dances from one corner to the next. The Model 3P never feels like that. It takes a brute force approach. It highly effective, but a bit one dimensional.

The third generation Integra featured a major update in styling you either love it or hate it. The base engine was upgraded to a 142 hp 1.8 L I4, while the GS R engine got an upgrade to 170 hp and kept the VTEC. In 1997, the Integra Type R came to the United States with its upgraded version of the GS R’s engine making 195 hp and revving safely up to 8400 rpm much higher than any other streetcar of the time. It’ll be tough to find one, but if you do, go for it! The limited quantity available of the Type R (750 imported to North America in 1997) is the main reason the Integra isn’t higher on the list. It’s often considered to be one of the best handling FWD cars in the world even compared to modern designs. Expect to pay anywhere from 3 9k there is a wide range of conditions and levels of modification, so you should be able to find what you’re looking for, given time. Obviously, the GS R and Type R models will be more expensive and much harder to find (especially unmodified), but if you find the right car, you could end up a very happy buyer!

What vehicles do MIL (mother in law) and mom drive? If one of them can accommodate a Sureride, give it to them. Surerides are like Dionos very long front to back. If LO (little one) is 50% for height and weight, it should RF (rear facing) him till about 4. Mine was in the 90%+ for height, like your oldest, and reached 40″/40 at 3.4 yo.

3) No mindless, pro Elon “Tesla will rule the world” fandom. You are free to believe Tesla will in fact make millions of cars each year and dominate the industry. Actually, we encourage such beliefs to be discussed as it provides a nice balance and perspective against our admittedly skeptical slant. But if you want to gush over the greatness of Elon, perhaps r/ElonMusk is better for you.

The issue is that some of the people who do abuse it are so incredibly blatant. They get away with more because they are actively scamming the system. It’s like a nerfarious version of what I do with airline miles. I find every program and loophole I can because it’s the only way I can afford to visit my family (and it’s legitimate). Because I am actively keep an eye on the programs and know all the rules/loopholes I get way more miles than most other folks who passively use the programs. I have personally known some welfare abusers and am sadly related to at least one. You’d think just by watching who brags, you could pick out the creeps. It seems most people don’t have the patience though. It’s a shame that there are people who use their benefits at casinos,resorts, in the Bahama, etc. Because it devalues the purpose of the system.

Subaru WRX: The WRX was a bit pricy for this list, but it makes it to the honorable mention list due to the great performance and rally heritage offered by the ’90s Subaru sports sedan/wagon. With a turbocharged flat 4 and Subaru’s legendary AWD system, the WRX will be quick on any surface and is relatively easy to modify for more power.

I’ve often thought there should be a minimum age requirement for police. At least 35 years old before they can carry a gun along with very strict, psychological high standards. I have scars older than 20 years. A 20 year old cannot make life and death decisions coupled with the wisdom that is only acquired through length of life. Citizen’s lives are in the balance: elderly, bystanders, children, people that are emotionally distraught, etc, and the person that holds their lives in the balance could have been watching cartoons and drinking Nestle Quick, 5 years prior. That to me is concerning,

The AMC Pacer ArrivesWhen I first went to North America aged sixteen in the summer of 1975, my parents and I were met at Toronto airport by my Dad’s cousin, the wonderfully craggy, frail, chain smoking Cliff and his trusty 1965 AMC Rambler Cross Country. When we returned the following year Cousin Cliff had suffered a series of heart attacks, had a triple bypass operation, was still smoking and had ditched the Rambler for something he referred to as his “moon buggy”; the amazing bubble on wheels that was his brand new beige AMC.

Driving directions are more detail oriented because the computer will ask for the city and state you are going to or one of your saved points. Then it will ask you for either a business or a specific address if you have one. The computer will then get your location through their GPS system and download the turn by turn directions to your vehicle’s computer. Once the download is complete the computer will tell you download is complete and that you may use your phone.

Which car do you have which car is your dream car?I own a bmw 3 series, e46 model. And i just love it. And my dream car is lamborghini murcielagoNow its your turn to tell me which car you own, and which car you would like to have, if you had money for it.

Dealerships aren’t everywhere. In my case, the closest dealership is about an hour and a half away. It is certainly a pain to drive to. I am lucky that I have one that close. Other people may have to travel hours to get to a Mini dealership. If you do buy a car, then ensure that you learn about your warranty. The flatbed service they offer to pickup your Mini is only for a limited area, and even getting a rental while your car is being repaired can be limited in how far you can drive it.

Really hoping for any advice on my current car leasing situation. 3 years ago my boyfriend started a lease on a BMW 4 series for $425/mo. After a year and half had passed, I was interested in also leasing a 4 series. I found one I liked and we negotiated the price down to $400 a month. At the time I was financing another vehicle and was cosigned on my boyfriends lease. Because the new BMW would be a third car under my name they had to get creative. I offered to have my parents cosign but they said they found another solution as my parents were out of state. They decided to basically do a “payoff” of my boyfriends remaining lease payments and add it to mine so that we would only have one BMW under each of our names. This made our payment around $825/mo for the combined payments. We signed the deal and were on our way. The following day we wondered what would happen when my boyfriend’s lease term ended. We called and I can’t quite remember exactly, but it was something along the lines of the payment would fall off or we would trade both cars in and begin new leases.

I’ve written hubs like, “Corporate Boards Are

I’ve written hubs like, “Corporate Boards Are Glorified Thieves,” and yes, I know that the word “theifs” is misspelled (hey, even an unskilled political non elite opinion guy like me can be a sucker for a little keyword stuff). Another one I called, “The Jobless Are Not Lazy,” and another one is titled, “Another Example Of An Overpaid CEO,” which is on point about the whole concept of CEO pay, and severence packages which are akin to winning the lottery, but focuses on the exorbitant severence package former HP CEO Mark Hurd enjoyed after resigning his post due to the discovery of falsified expense reports to cover up an affair he had supposedly with a female contractor, and an accusation of sexual harassment.

Driving drunk is still illegal. I advocating for the same protections I would expect for any other crime. If the police suspect you have done something illegal they need to obtain a warrant to perform a search. You cannot be compelled to comply otherwise. It that simple. This is criminal law 101.

Do not get me wrong, on two occasions as a youth I was whooped upon and jailed and then released without charges as a youth. I was known, due to sports, but I also wrote and distributed an underground newspaper with forbidden information back then clean needles, contraceptives, petitions for all kinds of things, family planning, locations for anti war demonstrations. And I wore my hair pretty wild for a backwater town.

He’s also looking at getting a RWD BMW diesel to use as long as there is no snow on the ground. Unfortunately we can’t keep the Jetta as it’s dirty diesel and a few weeks ago gave him an asthma attack that sent him to the hospital in an ambulance and he missed two days of work.

Despite having installed an L2 charger. I never actually needed that charging speed. Most of my driving happens close to my house (about 35 miles per day, if I average it out), and the car is pretty much always topped up when I jump into it in the morning.So. should you get an L2 charger? I still say yes, because fast charging is nice.

For the record, psychobabble like ‘putting one on a pedastal’ achieves only one thing fooling a patient into thinking they need to come back for one more session to interpret what this means thereby enabling the counsellor to upgrade their Ford to a BMW.

Absolutely, we are in a totally difference place now or we wouldn’t even be considering the BMW DH (dear husband) had a large increase in income and we’re over half way to debt free. We could buy a BMW cash with the sale of the cars and money we have saved, but would rather not plunge for a more expensive vehicle until we’ve bought a home.

BMW doesn’t have to make the best EV. They really just have to make a decent one and brand loyalty can make up the rest. A big sticking point for many people coming from higher end brands is the interior of Teslas. BMW could make a decent EV with a more traditional interior. Another is service. While Tesla does have the service vans getting stuff fixed at service centres does seem to be a challenge for some people. BMW could compete there.

I kept waiting for a great trade in to come in that some other person didn like and that what happened. I got a BMW 3 series out the door for 26k.I feel like I got a great deal from my research so maybe you can find a deal that great but it is definitely doable I make about 75k a year now and plan on driving it for a long time.

To make a phone call while the vehicle is not in motion, either press the phone button on the dash or on the steering wheel and browse your phonebook or call history using the vehicle’s dash screen. Select the person you wish to call and press the “play” button on the dash. The screen will show the person’s name and phone number category (home, mobile, work, etc.). Press the “play” button again to verify that is the person you indeed wish to call. The dash screen will show “dialing so and so”. When the call is connected, you may talk to the individual using a small microphone imbedded above the driver’s head. You will hear your party through the vehicle’s speakers.

Precautions and DisclaimerPlease note that while reading your own OBDII fault codes can be very helpful in diagnosing problems on your own, you should only clear the codes if you are certain that those codes don’t indicate a serious problem. Ignoring a serious engine fault code could result in significant damage to your vehicle. The information provided here on reading your own codes is intended to give you a better understanding of what might be wrong with your vehicle before you have a professional diagnosis. That way you won’t be at the mercy of your shop and might have a better indication if they are diagnosing a problem incorrectly.

This post has gotten longer than I expected already but I will add this: I recently sold my CTS V for a nice truck that much cheaper to own and drive, and that I enjoy almost as much. I still dont regret it a damn bit, even having calculated my total cost of ownership after the fact.

Because here’s what I generally think. Hard work pays. That’s the motto I try to live my life by. bfakn.club Work hard, make a contribution, and it will pay off one way or another. Nothing in life should be a cakewalk. Nothing should be handed down on a silver platter. Everything should be hard. Everything should be a challenge, and if you get somewhere and you achieve something, by God you should have a trail of blood, sweat, and tears in a long path behind you.

Throughout this whole process I kept thinking: I could walk into any BMW, Porsche, Toyota, whatever dealership with this pre approved loan and leave with a new car in less than 60 minutes most likely. If it took longer, it only be because they getting me a bigger discount or getting it delivered from another store.

Then we move on to the “WoW is trash” circlejerk. Well, lots of the WoW community is unhappy with BfA to be sure, but welcome to playing WoW. Every other WoW expansion has generally been considered bad. Legion was great, BfA is not. It not a sign of the apocalypse for Blizzard, just the usual cycle for that game.

Make sure you aren on the gas and have the engine bouncing against the rev limiter when you clutch in to shift. But you also don have to wait for the revs to fall. Letting the clutch out while not on gas would match revs for you. When you are slotting the stick into the next gear, your right foot should be completely off the gas pedal, and clutch completely it. Let the clutch out swiftly but not dump it. Then as you let off the clutch, at the last 80% of of the way out start adding gas again. When done right and quickly, shift is smooth and doesn hurt the car.

I had my F30 328d for 1.5 years and 20k miles. No problems related to the engine, but it only just touching 50k miles now, I would hope it could last that long. :) I wasn interested in the E90 335d because I didn need the power and the fuel economy wasn all that great. I been crazy happy with the fuel economy I gotten so far, my best tank was 52mpg, it was pure highway miles. Around town with mixed driving I get 38 40mpg. I do have alot of sprinter diesel customers with the 3.0 V6 diesel, most of their issues are emissions related and can be very expensive (if they don travel any to Cali, its pretty much mandatory to delete) other then that, the classic throttle petal issues, about $600 to $900 depending on the year, oil issues with over heating (The 3.0 V6 is like the old Jeep 4.0 when it comes to the oil issues, fantastic engine, runs forever, but if it ever goes over 15 20 degrees over its normal operating temperature, there is no forgiveness, that motors done, $9,000 to $14,000 for a new engine) and the timing chain stretching problems.

Get reddit premiumEveryone question is buyer specific, but some/all of your question may be easily answered using our FAQ check them out below!Please post the Model, Year, Miles and Trim when asking vehicle specific questions to help us resolve your issue faster!

A dozen years ago, when I was a product development manager for a large cabinet component manufacturer, we used to talk about the effect China would have on kitchen cabinets. buyers would take them seriously. Plus, logistical nightmares such as replacement parts and “out of stock” situations kept us feeling safe from the threat of imported cabinets. market was flooded with cabinets from China.

It the same thing as the guys that buy a high powered 30k Ducati race bike to putt around town on. Everyone is entitled to do as they wish and if it worth it to you then awesome, I personally just find the notion silly. I bought a 2016 BMW 3 series slightly used with 1,000 miles on it.

There is also cultivating, hiring, and keeping the rider that will ride the bikes to glory. It just a cheap engineering exercise they pulled off because they just can and as a good publicity stunt.Racing bikes are meant to go fast around a circuit, not in a straight line. The only way kawasaki got to make an engine that had comparable power to a motogp bike is by making that H2R.

If you don have a huge commute and rarely put on more than 20 30 miles in a day, that charger will work just fine.If you end up using up the whole charge in a single day though. and need a full charge by next morning. things get dicer.It takes this car 18 20 hours to fully charge from empty using the included level 1 charger, and obviously you can do that overnight.That where a L2 charger comes in.

I never said it isn When people mention saving on maintenance costs they don say, “has less cost of maintenance when compared to it rivals.” They say, it an EV with less parts so it has less maintenance than an internal combustion car. That just isn the case. People think that a Tesla will be cheaper to operate and maintain than ANY other car, that isn true. Is it cheaper than some? Absolutely.

If you aren an asshole all the time, and are generally positive and a friendly player who doesn tilt and tries his best, reports do not matter for you. I have between a 9 10K behavior score at all times and when I have a bad game and make too many mistakes and my team decides that it my fault and I need to be reported, I couldn care any less.

This is not to say other card games can’t be good, or can’t do fine on twitch, or that you personally have a hard time watching Artifact, or whatever. It’s just that these core fundamental bits of Hearthstone were executed brilliantly from day 1, and it’s a big reason why Hearthstone has been so popular on Twitch for so long (among other benefits).

When I use my front wheel drive Toyota, no problem at all. Any skidding is purely for fun I love doing handbrake turns when the roads are iced up. Yeah OK, I’m just a big kid but when no one is about and the roads are sheet ice it’s an opportunity to practice controlled slides.

And yes to what pp said about maintaining! My dh (dear husband) works on cars and said we will never get one. Tires are expensive, oil changes are $150. I had a tiny bump with one in a parking lot (seriously just a scratch, no dent) and their dealer charged $750! The scratch on my dodge rubbed right off. I thought they were scammers, but my insurance said just painting a 2017 bmw bumper costs that. Kind of impractical for an icy environment. I guess if you have money to blow. but then why is he worrying about gas mileage costs in that case.

The America’s Cup has always been an expensive trophy to compete for but it has rarely been fair. If you win the Cup you host the next event and, to a large extent, control the rules once a challenger comes along and throws down the gauntlet. When they do, and there is no fixed time frame in which they have to do so or when the next America’s Cup match will take place, it is up to the defending yacht club and that of the challenger to agree the terms, venue and dates for the next event. But since 1983, when the Australians won the Cup and ended the Americans’ dominance which had lasted since 1851, the longest winning streak in sporting history international interest in winning the historic trophy surged. Unfortunately, in the scramble to become a challenger and help form the rules for the next Cup, some yacht clubs allowed themselves to accept one sided terms from the defender.

Low grade plastics on the dash and doors, cheap vinyl seats that don breath, hollow and chintzy window switches and steering wheel stalks, etc. All the ones I driven and ridden in have also rattled. The Model 3 would be fine for $25k car, but there is nothing remotely luxurious about it.

3) Pete Buttigieg. Now I going to preemptivel

3) Pete Buttigieg. Now I going to preemptively defend his 3 slot by saying, I don think he in any way qualified to be President. That being said, he the top contender for VP. He carries himself extremely well with very desirable VP traits. He friendly, humble, charming, charismatic with solid understanding of a surprising range of issues. His few solutions were mediocre, but he seemed pretty washy on taking hard stances anyway. It obvious he doesn have the experience of many people on the stage, but he a solid campaigner from a very critical state; which is the dream scenario for a VP pick.

I generally don support posturing bills for the sake of electioneering and just because it a bill doesn automatically make it more detailed than a proposed plan. Bernie can play the “I a Senator and I did Senator things” card when he the active Senator vs ex Senator. The stage this year is littered with active Senators this year, and arguably he the least productive and least effective of the bunch.

If you have a 2006 BMW X3 and you find your windshield washer fluid light keeps coming on, even shortly after you filled it up, you probably have a washer fluid leak. What’s more, it might not be a crack in the washer tank itself. These cars tend to spring leaks in the washer pumps and/or the grommets that hold the pump in the tank. I had mine filled and less than a week later the low fluid light came on. Indeed, the fluid was leaking out slowly, so slowly in fact that it was never reaching the ground because it was evaporating under the hood.

At least that is what his dad said. maybe i am the only one here trying to teach him anything.Polly Cposted 7 years agoI have a 12 year old son and there would be no chance of him driving my car! Aside from being illegal, I can’t think of anything worse it’s bad enough seeing him on the road on a bike to be honest.

Drove like a dream. Hated it. Didn feel right, like putting on airs.Also, you eventually be out of warranty and there are a million things that can go wrong with those over engineered cars. Frivolous stupid shit of every imaginable kind. Outrageously expensive parts that come in monolithic increments. Felt like a sucker every time the BMW dealership held me up for outrageous repair costs that only they would do and that would cost 80% less for the same thing on a Ford.Also on the “new vs.

To make that happen, to create a timeless machine for fast moving times, BMW has simplified its design language, with economy of line and sculpture. That means, when you look at this new Concept 8 Series, that you see sharpness and precision, and a startling sleekness through the way the design team has achieved light and shadow on the car’s exterior. If you look closely enough, you can even see the future.

The fourth generation Eclipse marked a return to more rounded styling similar to the second generation, but it also shared styling components with other Mitsubishi vehicles of that period. You can choose between a 162 hp 2.4 L I4 or a 3.8 L V6 packing 263 horses under the hood. All of these will be front wheel drive, and there are convertibles available as well. Though you can find an old model from a private seller for less, a fourth generation usually goes for around $9000, so it’ll be out of the price range for most young people.

The circuit that will be used for July’s grand prix was opened in 1984 and measures a more manageable 5.1km. Some have deemed it “dull”, but these are mostly people who haven’t had the experience of racing on it. Virtually any racetrack seems on the mild side compared with the Nordschleife, which forms the major part of the original Nrburgring as it was inaugurated in 1927.

When you’re a conservative such as I am, it’s really tough to stand up and be for the little guy. Really tough. Because the fact of the matter is, as soon as you start to say, “Hey, the guy on the bottom needs a little recognition for his contribution too,” all of sudden the accusations begin to fly.

There was only time to discover that my taxi driver was called Philip, that his full time job was as a BMW development engineer and that he had been around the Nordschleife “more than 3,000 times” and then he was waving his access pass at the control barrier and we were embarking on our first lap under gut wrenching acceleration.

This post has gotten longer than I expected already but I will add this: I recently sold my CTS V for a nice truck that much cheaper to own and drive, and that I enjoy almost as much. I still dont regret it a damn bit, even having calculated my total cost of ownership after the fact.

When Jung was about 12, another boy pushed him so hard that he was unconscious for a period. The first thing he recalled was thinking, “I won’t have to go to school anymore.” From that time on, whenever he thought about going to school, or doing homework, he fainted. His parents kept him home for six months, and finally believed he had epilepsy. He heard his father discussing this, and did realize the doctor would be costly, so Carl forced himself to his father’s study, and began to read a Latin book. This caused him to faint three more times (although friends who have taken Latin assure me it has negative effects on them too), but he fought it, and the fainting stopped. Jung had discovered this was neurosis.

The interior build quality is not on par with a Porsche but it definitely not bad at all. I actually prefer the interior design to that of a other modern sports cars over driven because it driver centric and doesn feel claustrophobic. I hate large wrap around center consoles and huge dashboards that make me feel like the car is swallowing me. The Evora cabin is fairly open and a generally nice place to be. It has all of the technology I need without anything extra.

If premium is recommended but not required then you can run whatever makes sense to you. With premium, the engine will make a little more power and get slightly better MPGs but it might still 카지노사이트 be more economical to run regular because of the difference in price if you don mind losing a few HP/TQ.

“The conundrum we are trying to solve in every BMW design projectis that when a car comes out it should be very new and very surprising, but 40 years later people should still like looking at it. You need to be bold to achieve both newness and timelessness. It sounds contradictory but that is what we always strive for.”

It could be a BMW thing. I have heard BMWs are some of the hardest to get a good install in. Was he installing it in a side seat and not the center? No car seat is safe to be installed in the center of a BMW (sedans I know for sure). The European sport style seats are not compatible with a center installation. For us, the seat just moved more than he would like, so we are getting help. When meeting with a CPS technician, they ask that you have installed it to the best of your ability ahead of time and they will check your install and help you learn about a proper install and your seat. Our appointment is an hour long and it covers our seat installs and complete car seat safety.

Whether these things are valuable to people or not is not the point, the point is, if I am paying such a premium for a BMW, I want it to have a all the features. This has been the case since years and when I asked the salesman why they don have ConnectedDrive, he told me it due to the regulations with TRA in Abu Dhabi they haven approved it for BMW Abu Dhabi.

Quite frankly, I don’t understand it either. But nevertheless, McLaren’s direct rival to the 458 has shown the world that they can still churn out a serious machine for the race connoisseur who’s not really interested in ‘posing’ or flashing a brand name but prefers what can possibly be technically sound. The MP4 12C is McLaren’s 2nd road car after the McLaren F1 (the supercar which defined the 1990s) and the SLR (jointly built with Mercedes) so they had to ensure they gave it their best when releasing the usually difficult ‘third album’.

Plus, I’ve had a fascination with all things German for quite some time. German was my college major for a couple years, back when I thought of being a UN interpreter. I have (or had) family living in Germany, and I have backpacked through the cities there. I thought I would live there one day. I heard angels sing when I stood in the Olympic Village and gazed upon the four cylindrical pillars of BMW Headquarters in Munich.

First, press the “learn” button on the back of your garage door opener mounted on the ceiling. (The learn button, located on the back of your machine, will be square if using a Liftmaster machine. Craftsman, Liftmaster, Chamberlain are all the same. Their learn buttons are square and usually yellow, red/orange, or purple. If using a Genie, the button says “learn button.”) The single press of this button should be brief and firm. Do not hold this button down. If you do, it erases all of the programming in the machine and you’ll have to re program all the remote controls that you have, and that’s not a fun process.

Blancpain GT World Challenge without a doubt the biggest competition for GT3 racers. This series includes several regional sprint based championships (America, Europe and Asia), as well as the Blancpain Endurance Championship, which features 5 long distance races on European tracks, including the Spa 24 hours (27 28 July), which is without a doubt one of the jewels in the crown of GT racing. All races are livestreamed through YouTube.

Bovensiepen junior says the typical Alpina buyer is a highly successful entrepreneur who often covers a high annual mileage (30,000 or more per year is usual) anddemands a level of exclusivity beyond the personalisation offered by top luxury marques. “If youlook back 20 years, we sold fewer than half as manycars as we do today,” he explains. “Production hasgradually increased because our portfolio of models is much wider than it used to be in the past, for example, we didn’t offer an SUV or any diesel engines but it’s also because more people are looking for something special. That said, we still make fewer thanhalf the number of cars that Rolls Royce does. Wehavea verypersonal connection with all our customers andwe want to maintain that.

Last week the weather was nice so I tried to send the departure times to the car using the Connected app on my iPhone, and it failed. I did manage to get the climatize feature to work once, from the old i Remote app, but it also has failed every time I tried to send the departure times to the car.

London based fan Peter Simms has owned his 1976 R90S for 30 years, and has ridden it more than 200,000 miles. “I use it virtually every day, which, given its age, bears testament to the superb build quality. I have travelled all over Europe on it and can’t think of a bike, new or old, that could possibly replace it. It’s comfortable, fast, beautifully made and has bags of character.”

I highly recommend searching around on the web for lease calculators (leasehackr has a great one) and getting the selling price, residual, and money factor for the car that you really want (dealers should give this to you, or you can check the forums on edmunds). Run those numbers through the calculator and see what your lease price should be.

What I saw from my numbers was that the Tesla does cost less to operate. But when I consider the additional up front costs and added insurance, it not quite competitive with Civics (or Accords) yet. Especially compared to the hybrids and/or if one doesn drive a lot. Of course, with different energy prices, different driving rates, etc, things change.

/ Simon de BurtonEmailTwitterPinterestFacebookThe word “exclusive” might have become devalued in recent years, but exclusivity is most definitely what luxury is all about theexperience of not simply owning things that are special, but owning things that are sospecial that not many (and preferably not any) otherpeople have them. And when it comes to high end cars, meeting that requirement off the shelf isbecoming increasingly difficult.

For the past month or so I’ve been on a bandwagon about money, elitism, thieving corporate boards of directors, wayward politicians, and the just plain teeming arrogance from the top looking down at the rest of the population as bottom feeding, low life, underperforming, unskilled, and just plain worthless piles with their hands out, to put it very bluntly. I’ve tried to make my point this way and that way, and every way but Sunday. And really, in all I’ve only probably served to overcomplicate the matter at hand.

Using the same chassis and suspension as the MK4 Roadster, this one not only adds a roof but probably the sweetest rear on any car ever made! It was the result of some serious aero work done to beat Ferrari. Sadly the car never went anywhere, because the year after, Ford not only moved Shelby across to the GT40 program but sunk their race budget into beating Ferrari on European soil.
