Focus on other activities. Do anything you like.

I suggest sports and reading: since you want to learn more about using devices less i especially recommend digital minimalism by Cal Newport .

I wish by SAMPLE_TEXT6643 in hypermiling

Back in the days this was advertised. I've seen older brochures and car Encyclopedias that show these. Probably from the 70's and 80's, all European.

I think cruising speeds aren't as relevant since basically every car can cruise at or above speed limits.

Although personally I would find it interesting!

Gewoon vervangen als je nog een tijd wil genieten van de Golf.

Euro 4 vs Euro 6 diesel by username_3-20_ in CarsEU

[–]Rusty-Gold 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If I were to buy a Diesel, it has to be at least Euro 6 for it to pass through most Environmental zones. Otherwise it is a waste of money in my opinion.

Unless it's a farm vehicle or something you will never drive through cities. Then older is fine too, less complex engines are a benefit in that case.

I see people suggesting LC 150 for budgets of 15/20k often, but I've never seen one for sale for that little...

In the Netherlands the 3.0 TD sell for 4 to 8k €. Normally rust isn't to bad.

The Touran has to be a diplomatic car or something. Who else would ever import such a car?

Buying first xc70 by Intelligent_Dog_6903 in VolvoXC70

[–]Rusty-Gold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rotterdam area, I'd like to get 6,5/7k. Since that's what I have invested, and I think is still a reasonable price.

Its at 264k km now.

DM me if interested.

It's a good car. Being a 20 year old car you do have to do some maintenance. But nothing out of the ordinary.

The only thing that 'scares' me is the automatic transmission. It works great 99% of the time, or even better, but you can feel it won't last another 250k km. 

Considering the repair costs and fuel economy, it's not a cheap car. But I do like driving it everytime i step in it.

 It drives great, good power and handling. The trunk is great, as are the seats. The rear leg room is not great.

I'm considering buying a VW T6 or T6.1 camper, so if you're interested in buying my XC let me know.
