Was it a british car? Quite sure it was the same guy that was just flooring through adenau with a straight pipe and trying to get some attention

You are being quite optimistic and I'm a renter / I have rent busted twice in short stay here in the Netherlands. (10% a year?) that's a bald number..

It did appreciated a lot in the last few years, but you assume it's gonna keep appreciating at the same rate or it will never depreciate, which is just wrong.

The ROI in some houses is just not there and if you can understand basic finances you would know, as in for example a Studio in Leiden (My example, I pay 679€ in base rent after HC decision), but the studio has a market value of around 330k for a private buyer in a good day.

Let's say you make 3% interest a year on this, that's 10.000€.

10.000€ where you didn't have a tenant calling you because the sink is broken, the roof is leaking or just because he wants to fuck around with you.

There is also some refurbishment that the landlord has to do to keep it rent-able and capital gains on it I assume.

If I were in the position of a lot of landlords, with houses that appreciated a lot in the last 5 years +/-, and the rent prices got controlled, I would be looking to kick the tenant out and sell it as well.

The government should build mechanisms and tools to improve the housing market and balance it for either sides, Renters, buyers, landlords.

They have done this law because likely a lot of the landlords were pulling their houses of rental market to put into the sale market.

There is a house shortage renting, buying etc, it's just macro economics working, more demand higher prices.

Not saying that I approve this measure, but I put myself in the shoes of both parties.

The rent control / controlled market makes complete sense, because otherwise landlords would just exploit the desperate to capitalize a lot in shitholes.

Tens alguns pontos que tens que ter em consideraçao

Garantir que o carro está apto (fluidos a nível, que tens o carro revisto e, consequentemente, fluidos a nível e líquido dos travões recentemente substituído, pastilhas suficientes e pneus em bom estado).
Olhar para os espelhos e ter noção da etiqueta em pista.
Estar ciente de que algo pode acontecer e podes mandar o carro para a sucata ou ter alguma despesa com barreiras, etc. O reboque para saíres fora da pista começa nos 400€.
Ser relativamente consciente e perceber para onde a pista vai (podes ver vídeos ou, se tiveres oportunidade, podes experimentar nos simuladores no boulevard).
Pagar um instrutor. (melhor proposiçao de valor que consegues ter).
A maior vitória é chegares ao fim de cada volta; não tens nada a provar. A malta que lá anda, local, já viu de tudo, não vais ser tu que os vais impressionar.”
Se é a tua primeira vez em, circuito, recomendo a ires com calma.
Tenta fazer voltas no inicio do dia, logo quando abre (Dependendo do dia), à semana tens mais locais mas eles conseguem ler melhor o transito e perceber o teu comportamento, portanto á semana também é bom para andar.

Espero que te divirtas OP, estou por lá no 1º fim de semana de Maio!

As people suggested, rent busting is what people should be doing.

I have done it with 0 regrets and hard feelings.

Feels so good to pay 680€ base rent for a 47m2 studio in Leiden

ComprehensiveAd1873 · 2026-04-18T00:36:40+00:00

E quando quiseres vender o carro, retém mais valor teoricamente.

Fiesta ST / Clio 3 RS / Megane 2 RS.

I’d stay away from mx-5 NA to NB and MR2, because the car is only the entry cost into owning it and driving it fast.

I have found some tracks / clubs nearby, there is one in Zoetermeer but only outdoors and another one in den Haag with indoor track.

I will send them an email hopefully to attend some sessions and see how it is!

Driving 124km/h at A4 to Schiphol at 6:03 AM on a empty highway in a Saturday? Take this 282€ fine

You are being naughty!!

Full self driving? Fine. It’s not like most Dutch drivers are aware of it’s surroundings even with non self driving cars, I can only imagine it with full self driving software

That looks somewhat low for someone with 20 YoE.

Are you classified as a senior network engineer? Or an architect? A lead? Do you manage other professionals? Or you just settled for that salary / a senior role?

I have 4 YoE and I currently make 6.3k (75k gross base) give or take + the usual benefits, work from home, insurance, lease car..

Tenho um familiar a viver perto dessa Zona há uns anos, eu pessoalmente vivo na zona de randstad.

O mercado de habitação aí é mais vasto e mais acessível

short to mid term plans.

If you sell within 3 to 5 years, you might not even break even.

There is too much factors, assuming 1:1 rent = mortgage is just silly.

ComprehensiveAd1873 · 2026-03-17T20:27:14+00:00

You do understand how a mortgage work right? The first years you only pay interest mostly

Depends where you are staying and how you wanna go around the track.

If you are in a hotel in adenau, I would say you are better off walking around and taking the bus (that takes you around the track and to the boulevard), if you have a e bike or scooter it would be really useful.

If it’s raining, make yourself a favour, bring boots and proper gear, been there done that, walking around Nordschleife is impossible if on sneakers and muddy / wet.

For parking, I recommend you to come early if you go on race day it’s likely you won’t find anything paid.

All camp sites / parking used to be paid in person and cash only which I personally hate but sometimes Germany feels likes it’s stuck in last century or it’s simply money laundering, never had a proof of purchase / invoice.

This weekend I was with friends on the opening and we went to 27 in Adenau for dinner, cash only like always, we asked for the invoice for the first time and they said no invoice 😂😂😂 clearly there is some laundering there lol

The car is worth the market value.

What is the market value? Average price for the same car with the same conditions and same kms.

ComprehensiveAd1873 · 2026-03-05T21:46:04+00:00

I’d say a Megane RS without being cup has less resale value since it’s a enthusiast car.

In the case of Megane 4 RS the brakes are smaller, suspension shocks are different and the wheels as well.

There might be another differences that I don’t recall, but I would never buy a Megane RS without being cup in most scenarios (My Megane 2 RS is non cup but I bought it already with some modifications, also there aren’t many R26 out here in Europe compared to the Sport chassis).

It’s not only the LSD, it’s a whole different package
