The Problem in Germany that leads to a lot of crashes is people just pulling out when they shouldn’t. P.ex. to let somebody merge in, without checking their rear mirror twice, thereby misjudging the speed of everybody approaching them.
Or, they are so full of self-justice (don’t know how to put it into correct english

The Corsa used an electric motor with gears mounted to the steering column. It added to the power of the user turning the wheel. Since the whole setup was comparatively light and compact, it was used in a few kitcars. Look for Opel part no. 55703402 p.ex., that was one of the variants. The Renault Clio also had

Generation Revolution X was a bad arcade videogame starring Aerosmith ^^

Sooooo.... I don’t know what that means for our generation, but it didn’t do us any favour in any way :P

There should be cheap options available from Europe, as some smaller cars here used electric power steering.
The Opel Corsa apparently had electric power assisted steering from the B-model onwards, so from the 90s on (depending on engine options, mostly the smaller engines with less displacement got the electric power

Avatar was the movie that sold good HD displays.
Seriously.
They used to run the Blu-Ray all the time here in the electronics shops, and it was mastered in such a glorious way that you could easily see right away which TV had better contrast, better color reproduction etc...
That Blu-Ray was the reference disc for years,

So you didn’t read my reply at all, and didn’t understand it.

Vidier-games wrote as an absolute that women in gaming are ALWAYS bullied by men and ALWAYS seen as a threat to them and their manhood or whatever they think they possess.
That they will ALWAYS be hated/spoken against as soon as they out themselves as female.

I agree with you almost 0%. Yes, that’s a Zero.
A gamer girl has been treated by a unicorn by some, but they always existed, you just had to know where to look for them. Like most active outdoor guys were not that much into gaming or board games, the flirtatious girls who were into styling and parties were not much

But Battlefield has always been as realistic as a sunday morning cartoon, so what does it matter?
Really, I do not have any problem with including all kinds of options for the players, for me they could’ve done a mashup and included Cyborgs in V - could’ve been fun as long as they are either cosmetic only or balanced.

I’

by use of terrorist warfare - i.e. attacking them on foreign soil of a sovereign state you are not at war with, also the U.S. was at that time not at war with Iran (future development to be seen). It was an unprovoked attack using military assets. If the person really posed a threat as it was described, there could

?? I don’t get the “no fun” thing. What is so wrong with only being allowed to affix parts to your car that have been safety certified?
I would like to have a paintball gun several times a day to mark the cars of idiots who approach me with illegal LED or HID kits - which are not calibrated at all and blind me without

I can understand and relate, getting my Volkswagen T4 TDI to that point will be a struggle too (I have 1,5 years left to finish that job).
The MX5 though, that one really surprises me: More than 250.000km on the clock, and not a single drop of oil - the engine is as dry on the outside as the Sahara. No Audi I ever

oh, compared to other coutries around it it is! And considering the risks that the dense traffic everywhere and the lack of speed limits on still a huge chunk of the Autobahn poses, I think they are even way too lenient, needing a TÜV-inspection only every 2 years. For an old clunker, a lot can go wrong in that time.
Al

that’s a shame. Imho that was THE engine to get for these little thingies. Petrol engines were best done by GM, the 1-Litre engines in the Corsa B were perfect for abusing and commuting, lasting more than 200.000km in a cheap-ass car that could be hurled around with no regards for warming them up or driving all the

Those are words that can only be spoken from an American.
Over here in Europe where every bit of size matters since parking spaces are really sparse here (you cannot park an F150 in a city centre here, even in larger cities - it is impossible!), the Smart was the right solution for a big problem. Also, I never thought

As a german citizen, I think it is the other way around. Germany is actually very lenient if you want to mod something or just be a car nut. Taxes are far lower than in most other european countries, insurance is also comparatively cheap (I pay 100€/year for my 97 NA MX5 for basic insurance, and less than that for

you could charge faster, but those V3 are rare over here, and May tested a standard-situation any customer would find themselves in. You cannot test thing under the best circumstances, and then, when the customer is angry, tell them: Yes, but the car COULD do xyz in theory.
That said, the tesla Model S is effing huge.

There is no such thing as a car with “too many miles” on it.
There are only lots of cars with “not enough maintenance done for the miles” on the market.
As a rule of thumb, a car that has been constantly driven a fixed amount of miles per year is more likely to have been well taken care of than a car that has changed

nah, it can still work. I remember the reviews for “Archimedean Dynasty” back in the days, and how it was praised for achieving an “absolutely fluent 15fps” on a Pentium 100 in 640x400. And no, that was not meant as a joke, that was really fluid graphics back then.

I was reminden of Moebius art style, probably also the old movie Les maîtres du temps” from 1982.
