Yes, it really helps keep our streets safe but sometimes it makes tuning a real pain in the ***...

When the time comes I will most likely talk a lot to Sam for information but first I need the car and then I will start doing some bodyworks and boost the engine.
I was thinking about getting a Petrol Astra Coupe but I am not sure yet if 1.8, 2.0 or 2.2... probably 2.0

Okay, this might be so stupid, but was is OTT? Haven't seen that one before.
Yes, the Beetle has a hydraulic suspension system and the engine I believe was a NEW Beetle engine.



Also great at Lake Constance was the low rider show. They had an old VW Bus (12 Batteries, 1450 kg, no engine) which jumped 5 feet from the ground and almost tipped over. Then there was an old Chevy, a New Beetle (16 Batteries, 1700kg, no engine) and a few others. Every year our low rider scene grows and wherever you see these guys there is a huge crowd. Maybe I'll make it to an low rider meeting in north Germany sometime this year...

Be back later,
