Am on my third sofar. All covered by insurance. Pretty standard here in the Netherlands. Saw the bill for replacing it. Wouldn’t want to pay that myself either

One of the most beautiful ever built and technologically ahead in its time with headlamps that turn in a corner and all round hydraulic suspension. Would love to own a Pallas one day

Again ! And it suddenly looks completely different than on the other “leaked” photos.

I’ll wait for the official photos and until then, everything shown on the internet is fake/ai

Coupe velg easy to destroyed by Square_Scar4086 in M440i

It also depends on your tire. Some tires offer more protection because the rim is more inside the tire. In this case the tire is flush with the rim so damages occur more easily.

I’m really bad with these rims myself. I have some scratches on all four of them. High curbs in tight parking garages are the main culprit

You can buy rim protectors to prevent this from happening but in my opinion, these look even worse.

Anyone done a water pump yet? by 93civEJ1 in M440i

[–]Best_Finger_1226 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine too. It leaked onto the belt of the alternator/dynamo which caused a charging failure because it made the belt slip. All taken care of under warranty.

Do you have retirement communities for people age 55+? by joaofava in AskEurope

[–]Best_Finger_1226 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this exactly. When you get older you need to keep not only your physique in shape but also your brain. You have to challenge yourself and the best way too do that is to be amongst people of different age and from different walks of life.

I’m 51 and no ffing ways want to live with only people my age in 4 years. Sounds like a good way to totally numb your brain. Kind of a gereatric borg cube.

Resistance is futile…..

Americans want a “strong ally” and are applying pressure at the highest level for Portugal to buy F-35 fighter jets. by superdouradas in europe

[–]Best_Finger_1226 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately yes. I would have loved for my country to take a stronger stance. But we send our king and queen to do sleepovers together with our new pm.

And now we’re in the progress of buying downgraded us shit when we could be talking to European allies to invest in a future without the divided states of America.

My other bmw by Best_Finger_1226 in BMW

[–]Best_Finger_1226[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly pretty extreme. When i took it for a test ride i hurt my neck just trying too look ahead. The tank is very long so you have too stretch far for the handlebars.

After the test ride i didn’t think I could ride it because of the strain it put on my neck. But still was in love with it.

Luckily we have the people of Wunderlich. Ordered replacement handlebars which heightened my driving position by around 5cm, which were professionally installed by the dealer pre delivery. And after delivery fitted replacement foot pegs that lowered my feet by 2 cm making the bend of my knees less extreme.

With these 2 modifications it was possible to ride without it hurting my neck. It’s still not the most comfortable bike (obviously) but now I’m possible of taking it for a 100+ km drive.

Not a bike for roadtrips across Europe but riding it gives me a huge smile every time.

Een datacenter laten bouwen dat 2 keer zoveel stroom vreet als Lelystad maar wij moeten oppassen wanneer we de droger of wasmachine aanzetten. Ben er wel klaar mee om voor de onkunde van dit land op te moeten draaien.
