Here is the interesting part I have paid $21000 for a car and another $18000 for repairs, insurance, maintenance, registration etc. I am quite blown away by this number. Is this normal for a car? Or can I chalk this up to the joys of owning a German car?

Winning won make a difference. Mets were better than the Yankees for a few years, they still a distant second. Jets were much better than the Giants for years, they still a distant second. Islanders were better than the Rangers for YEARS, they still a distant second. NY sports fans aren fickle.

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!

YDS currently rides in a Diono Rainier in our SUVs. He’s comfy there, and I love the seat. I tried the Rainier in the X3 during our test drive and it didn’t seem like a great fit; however there wasn’t enough time to really do a full install with the AA. The passenger seat had to be pretty far up. I’d be the passenger and I’m not too sure about riding with my knees against the dash. ODS is in the back seat too (Britax Frontier, harnessed, 46 and 46″ with a long torso at nearly 5yo; not ready for a booster due to immaturity), so not enough space for me to fit in the back on a regular basis. YDS is 21 months. At 18 months, he was slightlyunder 50th percentile for height and weight, 24 and 32″. I’m hoping to RF (rear facing) until he’s at least 3 yo, but preferably longer if I can.

Gas Trips The money spent at gas stations. This includes gas expenses, air freshners, filling air. Now, these expenses are hard to track and I used mint to pull the information. The money spent at gas station might have been spent on chips and gum as well, and there is no way for me to know now. And so while the gas trip number may not be exact, but it is pretty close. I always use Premium 93 grade.

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.

Recently, as my boyfriend’s lease term ended this month, we went in to talk to the finance manager about our trade in process (salesperson no longer works there). He said he would try and work on it and to come back. He set us up with a salesperson and we got nowhere. Basically, they screwed us. Even though we negotiated the price of my car before figuring we needed to combine lease payments, I am now stuck with a remaining payment of $825/mo for my car alone as my boyfriend had to trade in his car. Somewhere in the mix of paperwork it was calculated to have my boyfriends value over the 36mo instead of 15. Instead, we should have had a much lower required monthly payment and paid over that amount for the difference of my boyfriends car during the 15mo so when he turned his in my payment would have been $400.

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.

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.

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.

I’d avoid the AD dealership at all costs, cars might have longer warranty and service contracts / more options but service is garbage; they will up sell you random stuff and not take responsibility for their own mistakes. I own a BMW in Abu Dhabi fwiw and trust me with these high performance cars, you’ll want that extended warranty and service contract. PM me if you have any other questions.

“Now, where the hell am I?” The Pardinus main cameras showed a slowing shifting view of space. Apparently, she was resting against some large piece of debris. As it spun, it showed her a view of the debris field which now included many more objects than it previously had. Apparently the battle has ended without me.

They don’t get a say in Scotland using the pound but without a formal currency union Scotland using GBP would be mad. the Bank of England would control Scotland’s monetary policy and interest rates, and Scotland couldn’t do anything about that as it’s not their currency, they just use it. And as the previous post said there would be no currency union according to all the big parties in Westminster.

GT3, which I know I mentioned a lot with little explanation, is a widely popular GT class, used in a wide plethora of huge series. They feature a wide variety of car types from different manufacturers, BoP to perform at the same pace. The class currently features cars from Mercedes, Audi, Lamborghini, Lexus, Honda, Nissan, Porsche, BMW, Ferrari, Aston Martin, McLaren and Bentley.

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.

Do you have a food that you simply can’t live without? A craving that just can’t be met with anything but whatever you favorite food is?I know we can litterally live without alot of things but do you have some food that you just love?What is the thing that you can’t live without it? Why?by judalyn eres 3 years ago

At 3 am on the 3rd, my sil was in labor, woke her hubby up and told him to get the car they’re going to the hosp. after blowing thru a few stoplights they arrived at the hospital, hubby ran inside to tell er dr to head out there cuz the baby was crowing in bmw, by the time he got back to the car the head was out and he got to deliver the rest!

I would be concerned about keeping a nicer car safe being that your beater already got broken in to. I am a sucker for toys of the four wheeled variety, but maybe it would be better to just buy reliable transportation in cash right now and allocate your income to getting your down payment put together to get in to a house (assuming you’re going to continue to live in the area for a while)Car guy here. A civic is nearly as fast (if you not a car person you won notice the acceleration difference), handles better, and has way more luxury features than a 328i. The only two things the 328i has on a Civic is better ride quality and less road noise. If you actually looking for a car that is fun to drive, you can do much, much better for way less money. But seriously, another note on features, the BMW 3 series fully loaded has a serious lack of luxury features compared to all economy brands: Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, and Kia all have more and better features than 3 series BMWs.

Most are, particularly in the high end. You still have plenty of manual performance cars under $60k being sold. Hot hatches, for example, all have manuals, and the manual variants sell well enough that automakers don’t have plans to discontinue them anytime soon (even in the US). Other cars that appeal heavily to enthusiasts like the Miata still sell 60% as manuals!

This question depends on the type of car enthusiast. I am a car enthusiast who is not interested in hybrids, but I do admire the advances in science and technology that these cars have. In other words I appreciate these cars. It is a fact that in the next fifty to one hundred years many cars will be dependent on the technologies of these hybrid models.

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.

I guessing OP is either not understanding what really took place (most likely), or is not explaining the situation correctly, because it doesn make sense. That exactly why I have little doubt that this first time buyer cosigining with boyfriends is in the wrong, not a franchised dealership of a heavy leasing brand who ultimately has to approve and finalize these deals, and are “on the hook” for everything they contractually enter.

So it basically like a corolla in a bmw shell the way I look at it, you are only paying for a nice interior and a bmw badge on it. I just don see the point in buying a performance luxury car if it not sporty. It like buying a new Challenger opting for the v6 instead of the 5.7 or 6.4 392 for an extra 5 6k.

This helps address a potential conflict of interest which is called the principal agent problem. The issue is that agent (Raiola) is representing not only the financial interests of his principal (de Ligt), but also of Raiola himself. If Raiola were to get a percentage of whatever de Ligt is paid, then Raiola interests should be fully aligned with his principal, and he is incentivized to get de Ligt the best possible contract because that will get him the most compensation as well.

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.

BUT. We never see a gas station on the regular (before you get stuck on nitpicking, I mean not a gas station because the thing doesn take gas, but also primarily mean equivalent SuperCharger, as in something you HAVE to stop at in order to refill energy). Until our first roadtrip, and we own two, count them, 2 M3 LRs for a combined 12+ months (one for 8 mo, the other for an overlapped 4 mo), we had never been to a Supercharger.

Having said all this, the best feature of connected drive is that sometimes its able to pull locations from google and take you there; so you don need to have every business listed in the car directory. Oh and street view. It will show you street view of the destination before you get there ;)This. Even the same car you can get 30 50K off for 6 12 months used.

NEVER. Is that worth something to you? Certainly is to me, and to my wife too who hates gas stations. So now, we already not comparing apples to apples since in the ICE you HAVE to always stop at a gas station, unless you produce your own gas at home (har, har).

He is very impulsive and not very sensible just yet.landscapeartistposted 7 years agoin reply to thiswhere i live the kids are known for sneaking around taking people cars out of their driveway and returnin them before anyone wakes up. i lock my car and keep my keys up in my room.

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.

The second system is the mechanical standard. This is a rigid and comprehensive system that is unique to Germany, for reasons I can only ascribe to their culture. Germans simply require excellence in all things mechanical. Before you can register any vehicle (and this applies to registration renewals too), you will need to acquire a ‘Hauptuntersuchung’ (abbreviated to ‘HU’) certificate. This system is overseen by the Technischer berwachungs Verein (TV), a body that exists solely for this purpose. Obtaining the certificate involves a comprehensive safety check of the vehicle by a certified mechanic, covering everything operational on the car. This includes glass, wheels, engine, brakes, lights, chassis and more. The good news is that if a seller can provide you with this certificate, the car should be in reasonable mechanical condition. The bad news is that it almost always uncovers work that needs to be done before the car can be registered. It may sound draconian, but I actually find merit in this system because it maintains a safer road environment. On a peculiar note, you can find the same certification in elevators too. That random fact should give some comfort to those readers who have a fear of elevators descending faster 바카라사이트 than the speed of an ex pat on the autobahn.

Modern engines have knock sensors and run right at the edge of detonation all the time by design to extract maximum energy out of every drop of fuel. Running premium isn really giving you more margin for error in terms of pinging on a modern engine, the engine just bumps the timing up as much as the gas will tolerate anyway.

My 3.5 year old is in a Roundabout, just about to outgrow it (he is just under 40 pounds and 40 inches, 15 inch torso). 18 month old is in a Comfortsport RF (rear facing) with about 3 inches(approx) left of shell above his head (24 pounds, 34 inches, 12.5 inch torso). The infant seat I have is a Peg Perego sip 22 pound limit. We just sold my Miitsubishi Endeavor today, and my husbands current car is a Ford Excursion so room is not a problem. I will most likely start driving the Excursion town with the kids he will get a smaller car (possibly a BMW or similar size) to commute to work. However we would still like the option of drviing in the car with the 3 kids if possible. Plan on having to buy a few new carseats either way. I was looking at a Frontier for my older child for the Excursion, and was going to buy him a Radian for my Endeavor but now we sold that car.

It still makes me smile everything I drive it.. It seems that more and more BMWs and Mercedes are appearing around here. The Sureride was purchased specifically for travel after reading other posts on this board. If you can move the door it’s not connected, if it doesn’t move then you have a stripped gear..

On day 88 of the Silverock 90 day plan, I had a drivetrain error pop up out of nowhere. Competition success quickly followed, with now legendary drivers such as Derek Bell, James Hunt, JackyIckx and Niki Lauda all racing Alpina tuned BMWs to victory in events between 1968 and 1973.

It was so much cheaper than renting then that it made no sense to rent. So Raiola tries to agitate the player into seeking another move, telling de Ligt that the team isn set up to showcase de Ligt qualities, that he would be happier in another team, that he could get an even better salary and treatment as a star in Barca/Madrid/Munich/Manchester/etc.

Unfortunately, when shopping for a Mini, most dealers will know that you want one of those in particular. (Privacy Policy)VimeoSome articles have Vimeo videos embedded in them. The 5 series is a real drivers car and feeds road data better than the Benz of the same years.The Porsche is brilliant for parts delivery straight from the factory and are a delight to work on if you love fine German engineering.I have rebuilt a 911 carrera motor in the middle of the Northern Territory jungle.

I try to avoid this because of the obvious driving distraction hazard. As many of these soldiers need to arrange car insurance, they represent a significant insurance market and the major insurers in Germany make exceptions to their rules accordingly.

The History of My 2005 BMW 325lI was frugal and bought it used just about two years ago. I also turned the key on and squirted the window a bit with the washers. You can use either Shelby GT500 or the BMW M3 GTS. 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.

VeChain is the world’s leading Enterprise focused dApp/ICO platform for products and information. I find it hard to believe we cant do better than this? Power from the spin of the wheels? power from the air gushing over the speeding vehicle, the rain that lands on it, the sun hitting the roof.

You cannot go wrong with any of the Birtax seats.. Factory Five Racing Type 65 DaytonaThere aren’t many cars that are more beautiful than the AC Cobra, but this is one of them. It will probably work BETTER when you want to carry dogs, groceries/errands, and other “utilitarian and not overkill” situations..

From race officials controlled by the defenders to the ability of the defenders to accept or reject any challenger, the stipulations the Cup holders had written for themselves were seen by many as the most biased and unsportsmanlike in the history of the event.

When people shop around for a car, they can bounce from dealership to dealership without really expressing they want a particular type of car. Amazon Web ServicesThis is a cloud services platform that we used to host our service. I used the ipad to send text messeges to my friend.

She sharp, smart, and suave and didn take any positions that would anchor her but still had more than enough concrete solution proposals across a wide variety of issues and was able to communicate them well. Where did they go? She examined the cockpit desperately, eventually spotting them wedged behind one of her foot pedals.

Also, the computer will run validation tests on the readings of the O2 sensors before looking at fuel trim adjustments. I lusted for BMWs for years. Youre probably going to need a more BMW specific scan tool to see what faults are pending if the car is indeed misfiring.

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.. 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.

I strongly considered the Focus, but would have had to step back to a 2005 2010 to avoid the Focus PowerShift transmission. Second, the “all anyone cares about is your tits” is a direct remark against men immediate interest in boobs, and a remark against objectification.

Some Final ThoughtsThe above cars represent only a small portion of the kit cars and replicas that are available to buy these days. 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.

While on this ‘camping’ trip the following happened. My only wish is that the car has a range of 300+ miles.. Be patient. But Civics are generally incredibly reliable, with little that can go wrong. Get a 2014 economy car for 10 15k that will last you another 10 years while saving like crazy..

Once the prescribed time period expires, you will be required to learn to drive through the German system. I’ve heard a few other tales as well.. Yeah I hear you on the handling, I actually had a chance to drive an i3 rex in Virginia, drove 30 MNS from DC to go see it.

Pretty sure that Dash Nav systems are talking to the rest of the car, either directly, or at least talking to a component that also talks to the engine.. The first is the Zulassungsbescheinigung Teil I (a small, folded up piece of paper with the registration particulars of the car) and the Zulassungsbescheinigung Teil II (a certificate that confirms the ownership of the car within Germany).

No data is shared with Paypal unless you engage with this feature. This made our payment around $825/mo for the combined payments. 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 main thing holding it back is the higher maintenance cost of German vehicles. Those folks don’t have an issue with you if you aren’t abusing the system (which it really doesn’t sound like you are), they have a problem with those who do and that they are as frustrated by the economy as you are.

Three months after Ellison’s win, on May 6, the first press conference for the 34th America’s Cup took place. “None are 1 or even used that often” this is basically impossible. Despite this, Blizzard dumped money into it for 4 years. You plug it in and it charges.

Google RecaptchaThis is used to prevent bots and spam. It might have made a lot of sense 10 years ago but now it too late to claim the batteries are too expensive for them.

I would tend to disagree while they don set lap times that are that much quicker than a GT3, they much harder to drive faster/better than a GT3. I am an engineer and I was making decent amount of money and I figured this was the best time to own a German car.

Do not abuse the report button. 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.. It smoother, less peaky, and revs more freely. This question depends on the type of car enthusiast.

Had both codes! 171/174 my problem was the fuel pump the check valve built in side the pump was not holding gas pressure. Hey all! I would love some advice on fitting 3 car seats across in an x3. $68,000 discount from original price, about $28 48k discount from current price since they lowered the prices in March and give L for free to current owners..

I won’t say that at all. I personally have learned two things;1. 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.

Market indices are shown in real time, except for the DJIA, which is delayed by two minutes. This step is easy! You will need all of the paperwork above, your license and your passport. My husband jerry rigged it with tape, but that’s only temporary.

If 바카라사이트 it doesn happen, and instead Barr selectively declassifies some things without full context or full declassification to muddy the waters, giving cover to Trump but no one goes to jail, then I hope you be able to say that you wrong and that you the one who been played.

Just look at the efficiencies at your workplace and calculate how much time is wasted. So I would argue that while you THINK you want a 2 door, based on your requirements, if you came to me without any bias, I be recommending the 4 door to you over the 2 door..

Will the Sureride fit RF (rear facing) in the X3? I’m very opposed to FF him yet, even temporarily. In my case, the computer always says, “USB, please say a command.” because I always have my iPod connected through the vehicle’s USB port. Unless someone claims it..

I had nonfood items but you can ring it all as 1 transaction and it will say whats not included. I would say pretty much everyone has a problem with those who work or abuse the system I have definitely run into those people. Make sure the remote has been learned by the car.

Be wary when an offer looks to good to be true. We’re actually in Southern Ontario but in the snowbelt a couple of weeks ago all of the roads in our county were closed for a couple of days. They are so loyal to the point where they didn invite me this year due to the fact I bought a model 3.

His charming Leo ways often won him bipartisan support, and he moved to more centrist ways to win a second term. Those are seriously a ton of fun to drive. I was driving on a country road at 2 ocklock in the morning, and just as I am turning onto the highway, this car comes flying up behind me, with no headlights, no nothing.

I could tell by the blue residue left on the sides of the pump by the leaking fluid. Yamaha contributed to the engine design, which means that this 1.8 L inline 4 behaves much like a sports bike engine it revs to 8,000 rpm and pushes out 180 hp in this application.

I could go on forever. 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.. However, as a savvy buyer, you still need to be aware of what makes a quality cabinet (regardless of where it is made) and what you may be sacrificing when you purchase imported cabinetry.

Plus, I’ve had a fascination with all things German for quite some time. Once I got the strap threaded through, I was able to slide it further back towards the end of the seat track. Then in 2009, the floor dropped from under me. Hard work. With my passenger seat in its very most foward and upright position, I literally had to use my body weight to click it to where it would stay put without springing into the dash again.

The story doesn’t sound right. I still take the 3 over it again any day. You can easily Google those codes with your car make/model/year and find out more information about what other’s may have reported as the likely fix for the problem.. I have an iPhone, so does 23726193938 other people.

Some common ones are the hoses best checked first. Destroyed engine in 3 minutes. I did read an interview with Eddy Hellebuyck where, years after the fact, he admitted that he been doping. While the success was celebrated by BMW Oracle, others were not so happy thanks to another quirk of the Cup.

The maintenance upside, and it is a big one, is that it reduces the risk of corrosion in what are becoming ever more complex (and expensive to repair) brake systems but only after the car passes middle age. 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.

The police don get to just skip steps because it easier. And need a full charge by next morning. Many may never notice. Voice commands for the mp3 player include “play artist”, “play album”, “play playlist”, “next track”, and “previous track”. I have found the only way I can play music from my phone is to select bluetooth audio from the dash screen which will open your windows media player on your phone and then manually starting the playlist from the phone itself..

18 month old is in a Comfortsport RF (rear facing) with about 3 inches(approx) left of shell above his head (24 pounds, 34 inches, 12.5 inch torso). It was a tight fit but they squeezed it in. One pedal driving is entertaining and keeps you focused.

If you do feel like sharing maybe you have a great talk and be closer with a friend. A good one with WiFi for remote monitoring is $500. My advice would be to wait an try to score a great deal. When I use my front wheel drive Toyota, no problem at all.

That not to say that there aren LMP drivers who don know what they doing many don but my own perspective of being someone who loves racing both GT cars and prototypes has seen a lot more issues with the GT traffic being completely unaware of oncoming cars or outright blocking them in dangerous fashion than some of the questionable overtakes I see from prototype drivers.Without turning this post into a bit of a rant, getting proper multiclass experience is vital if you plan on racing GTE cars, moreso if you want to race them in more than just IMSA.

For instance when I am in maps through a hot click from a notification in the music app, from the app POV I am still on the music screen which messes up the one click navigation from the buttons next to the controller. Hope that makes sense.Also the HUD display and controls don’t work with CarPlay.

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.

So I hate to do this because I tried to use this exact argument as to how it not so much Tesla leading the charge into a BEV future, but governments, but so far (unless something had changed in the past 6 months) none of those countries have any sort of signed and ratified legislation those dates are just promises/pledges. Maybe they will happen, maybe they won It likely depend on the feasibility of actually banning ICE/PHEV vehicles at the time. I suspect those who set 2025 dates will push those back. I suspect those who set 2040 dates might be ok. That said, 20 years of more PHEV and less pure ICE is absolutely a good step and absolutely part of the solutions.

Being English, we don’t have Thanks Giving, but I wish we did. We make up for it on Christmas though. I go to my moms for Christmas dinner every year and every year it’s the same annual goodness. We always have turkey, pork and some special sausage (can’t remember what it’s called) with apple sauce and cranberry sauce on the side. Roasted honey glazed parsnips, cauliflower, cabbage, carrots, peas and sprouts. Boiled and roasted potatoes and home made gravy. A glass of sparkling wine to go with it too. It’s so good!What is a product you can’t live without?We all have favorite products that we swear by whether it be that wrinkle cream that actually delivers results or a favorite cleaner (mine is Windex) that powers through the messes in your life. What is one product that you personally can’t live.

I never driven a real FWD where the back is so happy to come around as that piece of crap.Do someone have a video of a fast lap with that car on Nrburgring GP short, so I can see how others does it? Any suggestions on settings to make it bearable?No, that was me being dumb, lol.

Is your 5y and 2.5y rearfacing or forward facing? I wouldn’t buy a radian for a ff child. I would buy a combination seat. There are a few narrow combination seats that will last you years longer then the radian. The radian is great for extended rf for heavier kids and okay for ff harness. But the harness and the booster are outgrown at about the same time and the booster has a 50 minimum so she might never weigh enough to fit in the booster mode.

If the engine is a V8 or V6 and only one side or bank is reporting a fault code it could be a leaking intake manifold gasket or leaking manifold. If you have logged both codes, however, it is unlikely that a leaking manifold would be the issue since both manifolds would have to be leaking.

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.

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.

From race officials controlled by the defenders to the ability of the defenders to accept or reject any challenger, the stipulations the Cup holders had written for themselves were seen by many as the most biased and unsportsmanlike in the history of the event. Under these rules, the management of the 33rd America’s Cup would be anything but independent. Certainly, it would not be fair. While it was accepted that the America’s Cup pitch was usually skewed to some degree, the AC33 protocol was seen by many as a step too far. The trouble was that few knew how to address the issue to level the pitch.

Around this time it occurs to me to just ring Nuna as there might be something wrong with the seat. They tell me that the seat isn’t compatible with the 3 series, 4 series, X1 and one I can’t remember. Well I’m shocked honestly that it wouldn’t just fit any car, especially a new car!

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.

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.

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.

I searched old posts and came across a bunch with the BMW X3 and Diono seats in 3 across, but I need RF (rear facing) seat outboard for YDS. DH (dear husband) is looking at the X3 for his next vehicle, and I’m fairly certain there is nothing I can do to dissuade him. He needs to get a new car within the next month, realistically.

The first part is a quote from BMWBLOG referring to the fact that BMW did a proof of concept last year with the VerifyCar app. The original post is here. I suspect whoever made the mash up image was using this to establish that yes, BMW and VerifyCar are connected, although the flaw in that is that BMWBLOG is not connected with BMW in its own words it “an independent private enthusiast site dedicated to BMW fans around the world and is in no way affiliated or owned by BMW AG”. However, it IS generally a reputable source on BMW, even if it not official.

Maybe that where we went wrong. We haven looked at those, just the german ones. That makes sense though, we both drive Japanese cars now and we LOVE them. SO reliable, SO cheap to service, and the luxury features are on par with the 2013 BMW she had (but probably not what they offer now).We also started to rethink how we spend our money too, now that we a little older.

The second generation MR 2 (1989 1999) had very different styling and has been called a “poor man’s Ferrari” due to some aesthetic similarities between the Toyota and Ferrari’s 355/348. The US received two engine options: a 130 hp 2.0 L naturally aspirated I4 and a 200 hp turbocharged 2.0 L I4. For 1992 3, Toyota changed the suspension geometry to reduce “snap oversteer” which made the car safer to drive quickly and on the limit. If you’ve got experience driving sports cars and are looking for a car with a real edge to it, try to find one from the few years before this change. If you just want to be able to corner quickly and not make a fool of yourself, definitely look for a later version with the more forgiving handling. This is, for most, the best of the MR 2 generations to buy because it is newer, more powerful, and better looking than the first generation, but less expensive than third generation models. You’ll probably be looking at 5 12k for pricing, although there is always room for variation with individual cars. The turbos are going to be harder to find unmolested and will be more expensive, but if you can find the right car, it’s going to be much faster and more fun to drive than the still spectacular NA version.

Go to your Bluetooth settings on your phone and scan for available devices to pair with. Find the OBDII scanner in the list (probably will be the only one) and pair the device to your phone. You can enter the suggested password of 0000 or 1234, and it should pair up.

Furthermore, I’m curious as to how people in Europe and other countries (where the average vehicle isn’t an SUV or larger) get by with their car seats. I’m assuming their “standards” must be much lower because how else would they be able to fit American sized car seats in their small cars?

TLDR: BMW lease gone wrong, left with $825/mo payment and seeking options to get rid of the carStop leasing luxury cars you can pay for in cash. Just leasing a BMW is screwing yourself. You get to pay for the most expensive part of the depreciation with nothing to show for.

I lusted for BMWs for years. I was this kid, albeit with BMWs (and also Porsches, but also mainly BMWs). And I still remember exactly where I was the moment I first knew I wanted one: July Long Beach Island, NJ, playing mini golf just off Long Beach Boulevard, when a Estoril Blue E36 M3 tore past. I was hooked. Or rather, “truly afflicted.”

Oh, no problem. I just turned 52. I co owned the first place with another person (generally not a good idea, btw, but it did work out for us,) back when I was early 30s. That particular one neither of us lived in, we just rented it out, then sold it 6 7 years later for a lot more. After that, I rented for another 5 years, as I had cheap rent. Then I bought a foreclosure for next to nothing in yet another city. Again, it was the situation at the time. It was so much cheaper than renting then that it made no sense to rent. Then I moved for a job in San Diego. The rent there was ridiculous, but prices were not that bad, so I bought again and owned two small condos in two different cities at the same time. Then my job moved, so I sold the San Diego condo for a good profit and am now living in the other one (Phoenix.) The market is really taking off here, so in about a year, I sell this place too, hopefully for close to 3X what I paid, and just go back to renting for a while. To answer your “how did I buy” question, the first place was a traditional mortgage with 20% down. The foreclosure was cash. The third place was again traditional mortgage with 20% down.

I trying to play the career, but I find myself having shitloads of not fun. Which is kind of bad, since fun is the whole point of playing, right?Right now I wrestling the BMW Z4, supposed to do the first race (sprint) of the N2 stage. I put about 6, maybe 7 8, hours on practice with that car (none of them particularly fun.) on Nrburgring GP (short/sprint whatever it called) without managing to achieve better times than 1.50.3.Any time I try to run the sprint against the AI opponents, I have no problem getting up to third position on the start straight, but then there no chance in hell to keep up with the first two cars.

The Six Speed TransmissionThe transmission on my Fit is very smooth, and easy to manage, even in city stop and go traffic. (The transmission, with its limited slip differential, is also very easy to drive on hills in stop go traffic, because it does not roll backwards, as manual transmission vehicles without the limited slip will do.)

Ive never met a girl who has such an interest in cars as you do.then I was looking up family history and found cecil. cecil created the MG sports car, died an early death in 1945. and cecil is a relative, who 카지노사이트 I now know why about so many things.(cecil died in a train accident apparently.

“We clearly see that there is a growing middle class coming through in Africa and that there is a lot of interest in development and we assume that the middle class as we have seen it in South Africa is growing and there is purchasing power and there is a demand for our cars as well,” he told CNN’s Robyn Curnow.

I was asking these question to try and see where people view points are but in seeing the responses I determined its just a bunch of hyperbole, just classic keyboard warriors not putting any thought into the situation besides superficial reasoning. claiming they are concentration camps is simply trying to instill nazi overtones to make their argument sound better. All it does it divide, take away from serious conversation, and doesnt lead to any solutions as each side hardens.

His residual is 6k as per KBB private party. That fine and dandy, but unless he takes the effort to sell the vehicle on his own (which most people sadly don he might get $3500 for trade in value on an exceptionally good day, of course heavily depending in the condition of the car.

Then, after following the instructions from the manual, you press the button for the garage door to go up . . . and nothing happens. Did you miss a step? Read on to learn about what most instruction manuals leave out: the step of programming the car/truck/van to the garage door machine itself.

The Coccoro is no longer a great option for multiples/preemies as it now has a 5lb./19″ minimum. (Yes, the website still says 3lbs., but other techs are reporting that new Coccoros are shipping with 5lbs. minimums on the seat and the manual.) Plus, the insert HAS to be used until kiddo weighs 25lbs, which means many kids are reaching the 1″ height limit long before 36″ or 2yo. :/ Combi has been non negotiable on that issue, saying that the seat needs to be turned FF if baby reaches the 1″ limit with the insert.

Most pet sitting is suitable job for older children. Many people work and don’t have the time to give their pets the time and attention they want. Some pets don’t have to be watched overnight: they may simply require feeding, watering, and walking a few times per day. But when people go on vacation or extended leaves and cannot take their pets, the pets will need care. Although many pet sitting jobs require that the sitter come to the home of the pet(s), if this is not an option, pet sitting can also be done in the sitter’s home instead.

If you have read my other DIY’s you know I’m all about saving money, and 02 sensors are not cheap. For a “narrowband” oxygen sensor I have no idea what that means, so don’t ask the price ranges from $70 $200 depending what you buy and where you buy it from. Add on another $150 if you’re having the dealership change it for you. Sorry, but even $70 is too much for me, for a sensor.

I gotten lenses from eBay, KEH and local pawnshops and have had good luck. KEH is probably the most painless everything I gotten from them has been better than expected. eBay is a bit of a crapshoot since it more or less impossible to evaluate a lens based on a few pics you gotta dig through a ton of feedback and at some point, just hope for the best. At least at the pawnshop you can put your hands on the lens and test it out but selection is limited.

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.

Sorry for the rant, I understand assembly manuals aren the easiest things to come up with from scratch. I didn order this with no expectation of some finicky stuff, tinkering, tuning, and so on that comes part and parcel with a machine you expected to assemble yourself. I sure that I be pleased once I actually get the machine running smoothly. But right now I definitely frustrated with some issues I didn expect given the price point.

Anyway, having established the connection between BMW and VerifyCar, the second part of the image includes a tweet from a VeChain VP talking about how VeChain reps were showcasing VerifyCar to BMW. The tweet is from October, but regardless I think the point was to use the BMWBLOG text to corroborate what VeChain had been saying all along. In other words, they are using the first part of the image to lend credibility to the second.

It’s the same story with the MK4 Roadster as with the hot rod above: All you need is an engine (Ford 289/302, 351, or 4.6l 4V V8), transmission, rear end, paint, wheels, tyres, batter, and fuel pump. All in all, this is a great little bit of kit for the money, and it’s backed up by professional service, outstanding quality, and a great price! As with the ’33 Hot Rod, expect to pay upwards of $25,000 for a completed car.

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.

A dozen years ago, when I was a product development manager for a large cabinet component manufacturer, we used to talk about the bfakn.club 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.

People making dream car posts about Mustangs and Challengers and Corvettes are generally celebrating finally getting the car they dreamed of after saving up for a significant amount of time. If they just buy one on a whim with cash they had lying around then I agree, calling it an attainable dream car is just as pointless as calling a Fiesta or a Transit one. The point of an attainable dream car IMO is that it a stretch for you to get it, you have to make sacrifices, but you get the car anyway because it the car you been dreaming of for ages. For one person that might be saving up for years to buy a new sports car. For another it might be buying a cheap ratty version of the car they want and spending their own time building it into exactly what they want. But the point is that they put time and effort into it, because it their dream.

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?Trying to get a favorable BoP? Thats what every team needs to do in a BoP class.

But why go for the Factory Five kit over another company? Well, how about over 10 years of building and developing experience? Or, the fact that it has its own race series? I think the fact they have over 6,000 happy customers should clinch it for you, but if not, how about the $20,000 kit price?

High resale value. A Mini brand car has a pretty good resale value, assuming the car is in great shape and has no problems with it. If and when you decide to get rid of your car, you will earn more back than what you would with other vehicles. I tend to change cars every five years, and while I may not with my Mini, having a high trade in value is definitely a bonus.

The above of course has the normal disclaimer. Most certainly a professional must be consulted for diagnosis and repair. After the guy put everything back together, the guy tells me he lost one bolt. First he says don’t drive the car, then he says as long as it doesn’t over heat I’m good. How dangerous is this?What causes a car to over heat?by Moipone 7 years ago

If one is constantly filling with a lot of water there most certainly may be a leak. The proper way to check the system is a knowledgeable person with a pressure tester. The system is pressurized and then leaks can be sought. Some common ones are the hoses best checked first. A next best look is at the water pump seal. Freeze plugs are more of rarity today, yet can be considered. A good look about is needed overall.

However, there is a firm that does such things as a matter of course, that finishes every car by hand and, during its 52 year history, has seldom produced more than 1,500 vehicles in any 12 month period. And, with allocations to any particular market never exceeding thelow hundreds, the chances of another of these cars pulling up beside yours are extremely small.

With its four plants in Great Britain, BMW has now prepared itself for London departure from the EU on 29 March and has therefore brought annual maintenance forward from July to April. “This gives us scope for an orderly transition,” Wendt said. By stopping production in the weeks following the Brexit, BMW wants to reduce the risk of interruptions in the supply chain and restart as smoothly as possible afterwards.

If the majority of your daily driving is within a 30 mile circle of your house, and you only do 30 50 miles of driving per day, this is a fine car. If you frequently find yourself driving further than that. you either going to need a backup second vehicle with a gas engine, or you should REALLY consider jumping up to a REx i3 because it backup gas generator is going to give you the freedom to take the occasional long drive, while still replacing 99% of your mileage with electricity.

Splicing the Wires and Installing the O2 SensorThe Ford sensor 15718 only has about 15 16″ of wire. You’re going to need around 30″, so don’t get too eager and cut off your VW harness just yet, lthough you can cut off the plug of your new Ford sensor as close as you can towards the connection.

Questionable driving, to say the least. That not to say that there aren LMP drivers who don know what they doing many don but my own perspective of being someone who loves racing both GT cars and prototypes has seen a lot more issues with the GT traffic being completely unaware of oncoming cars or outright blocking them in dangerous fashion than some of the questionable overtakes I see from prototype drivers.Without turning this post into a bit of a rant, getting proper multiclass experience is vital if you plan on racing GTE cars, moreso if you want to race them in more than just IMSA.

Depending on the features included (upgraded infotainment, leather, etc,) that either “a good price” or “a steal.” Find out which “package” it has. (Mega, Giga, Tera.) And if it BMW Certified Preowned. That gets some extra factory warranty.It comes with a portable “occasional use cable” that is slow, but it works in a pinch.

Recently, as my boyfriend’s lease term ended this month, we went in to talk to the finance manager about our trade in process (salesperson no longer works there). He said he would try and work on it and to come back. He set us up with a salesperson and we got nowhere. Basically, they screwed us. Even though we negotiated the price of my car before figuring we needed to combine lease payments, I am now stuck with a remaining payment of $825/mo for my car alone as my boyfriend had to trade in his car. Somewhere in the mix of paperwork it was calculated to have my boyfriends value over the 36mo instead of 15. Instead, we should have had a much lower required monthly payment and paid over that amount for the difference of my boyfriends car during the 15mo so when he turned his in my payment would have been $400.

Utilising the Chevy platform (Corvette C5 1997 2004), this car needs a few more parts to complete than the other Factory Five kits. If you’re on a budget, you can buy a donor car. If you have a large pile of cash under your bed, how about completely new and upgraded parts and a stock Chevy LS or even the beast that is the Corvette ZR 1 638bhp LS9 engine?

I want to stress the point that imported RTA cabinets have been a huge success in recent years. They have placed the power of cost control in the hands of the DIY homeowner, and the quality and options seem to get better every year. They fill a special place in the price spectrum for many Americans, and in these tough times, this is a good thing.

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.

I am so shocked at these stories as related by “victims” and their relatives. Of course the victims all being so innocent. I noted no relation of the conviction rate of the victims or followup on suspensions/probation and firings of any wrong doing cop. What to we have? 5 million in jail and 5 million law enforcement personnel. Let us see, and each cop making at least two “contacts” a day? Get back to me on percentages.

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.

Using your mp3 playerYou can use the Sync system to voice or dash operate your mp3 player if you have the mp3 player plugged into the vehicle’s USB port. I use an iPod Touch in my car but I’m sure nearly all of Apple’s iPod products will work. There is a list of compatible mp3 players on the Sync website.

For the BMWs, I just not a fan. I liked the interior a touch more but I just couldn get into the car and really enjoy it, something about it was just lackluster in the driving department and I really disliked the exterior of the car. I didn feel connected to the car like I did in the ATS and that really cheapened the experience, I also not a fan of what it costs to maintain and own one.
