I got a brand new steering wheel fitted to mine and it doesn't feel bendy at all (and the old one also didn't). 

The hp system is actually quite reliable. My 1976 GS has been rebuilt in the last 20 months and the only thing that didn’t need any work was the hp, no leaks and no brake issues. The most annoying part are the oil leaks, I’ve never seen a car leaking as much as mine. But once you’ve taken the engine out and replaced th…

Even though the regulations are sometimes annoyingly strict, there’s still many options for a car enthusiast to own and drive his dream car, be it a cheap or an expensive one.

The older ones aren’t that bad. My fourth car is an E39 520i Touring automatic and it’s super comfy, offers enough loading space and is almost reliable.

I bought a Smart 450 convertible two years ago, and in many ways, it’s a piece of shit: Terribly slow, incredibly uncomfortable, terrible gearbox (in manual as much as in automatic mode), dangerous handling, but as a city car (in Europe) the Smart is unbeatable! Never had any trouble finding a parking space with it…

Ah ! Shin-Osaka station ! About half an hour ago I walked past that Jimny and took a brochure of the Spacia Hybrid. ^^

On every unrestricted area of the Autobahn AND Bundesstraße. For example: parts of the Between Karlsruhe and Germersheim are unrestricted, recommended speed still is 130, but if you want to drive at 200 kp/h, it's not illegal.

That's not true.

Sure, just because it's not limited doesn't mean that it's safe to drive at any speed (many people don't get that), especially on a busy day. If you know that road very well and are an experienced driver, it might be ok, but if you come from another country and never used that road, just drive at a reasonable speed.

Die Richtgeschwindigkeit auf Autobahnen liegt auch bei 130 Km/H. Auf ausgebauten, mehrspurigen Bundesstraßen gibt es grundsätzlich kein Tempolimit, wie auch auf der Autobahn. Dass inzwischen vielerorts Tempolimits herrschen, stimmt allerdings auch.

The Bundesstraße does not necessarily have a speed limit. If it has two tracks on each side and no limiting signs, you can drive as fast as you want. 130 is just the "Richtgeschwindigkeit" which means it is a recommend maximum speed but not an obligation.
Still it is not a clever idea to drive fast on a regular…
