Fire extinguisher is there because it is mandatory safety gear in Belgian cars, seeing it has Belgian origins...
On a personal sidenote, this car with it’s cushy interior reminds me of my mum’s Peugeot 607.. Learned to drive in that thing, god was it awesome.
Supermotard design but with 2 cylinders.
English is the go to language in aviation and a demo team goes international makes sense to use an international language, not to mention the actual warbirds have flown a lot of missions for NATO and other coalitions, ie Libya and the current mission in Iraq. it makes sense for NATO partners to embrace English in your…
Is no fire comrade, is advanced smokescreen deployment technique.
edit: needed some Putin trollface.
Indeed, someone reminded me of this elsewhere in the article. Like an idiot I somehow forgot
Like an idiot i forgot about this. Ye I suppose it’s possible then, but still what kind of a moron does not .... wait nevermind, mine have actually come undone due to vibrations at high rpm, hooray for 1 cylinder engines. Use loctite boys and girls, I got lucky I heard a squeel from the bolts rubbing the swing arm,…
Mentioned this elsewhere in the article, but even on a single sided swingarm you’d have to lose a wheel. The chain and therefor sprocket are always on the side of the arm, so they are inbetween wheel and swingarm.
Even that would be impossible, the chain is on the single arm side because all the bracing to sustain the pull from the chain is there, even on a single arm you’d still have to lose a wheel.
So it is. Still, ship+ monster(old god in this case)+ squid related article, I couldn’t resist.
And Belgium, the Belgian frontline is still littered with the stuff. Battle of Passchendaele for example was one of the most intensive artillery engagements in history, 4 million shells fired..
They found this little stockpile only last year, and a few months prior workers were killed when they found one during…
Come to Belgium, West-Flanders is still full of unexploded WWI shells , with some of them potentially containing nerve gas. We get the added fun of finding munitions dumps from time to time as well, they found one only last year. WWII bombs often occur as well but less often than WWI munitions by a fair margin.
UK has the most expensive diesel prices in Europe, it’s actually more expensive to buy diesel in the UK because of taxation compared to petrol. EU regs or not won’t matter, besides they won’t leave the EU there will just be tiring negotiations and they’ll get what they want and be happy.
Geert is it you ? Because what you are writing sounds vaguely reminiscent of the insane crap Geert Wilders spouts in the Dutch parliament. Btw fascism = far/ extreme right ideology, Wilders = a right wing politician who has extreme xenophobic viewpoints therefor is a fascist, see how this works ?
Geert Wilders, now hatemongering in a Texan town near you.
Seat Leon, previous gen use these. Confuses the fuck out off people for some reason, always have to stop friends yanking the seat forward when I take it to go out (brother drives one). Looks clean imho
I suggest a Minerva built licensed defender series 1, Belgian Military version
Because nothing screams you poor little country like a once prestigious mark going from building these beauties which were considered more or atleast as luxurious as a Rolls at the time
No taxes= no country= no interwebs for you to rage on, in European Union countries or in my case Belgium we pay taxes which pays for
A) Healthcare, not free but you get paid back 90% on most stuff like a doctors visit, prescribed meds etc. When’s the last time you visited your local md and paid only 30 dollars, then…
Said the exact same thing in a reply, I compare it to owning a roadlegal supermotard. It’s a competition bred engine in that case which requires you to change a piston every 400 km’s or every couple of hours driven, but if you’re aware of that and your willing to put in the time to maintain it it’s amazing. Same for a…
I can see why you do it, but if you consider it for the performance engine it is it’s a great engine. It’s sort of like buying a streetlegal supermotard and then be surprised that the competition bred engine needs a new piston and rings every 400km or x amount of hours driven. Wankel is a good engine as long as you…
