When it comes to BMW Convertibles, they'll usually tell you to stay away from the Z4 or this BMW 3 Series E93. But just why?

    Nice video. My neighbor has 3 W124 at this time, and I bet he will buy more as he finds them. The one we are working on now, his newest purchase, was bought as a parts car. During the last few days I have replaced a faulty alternator(Diodes), and cleaned electrical contacts of fuses and other electrical connections. Every day we have more and more working as it should. I see it as potentially being roadworthy again. So far this is a very nice car to work on.

    Fun fact on AMGs and Maybachs of that gen, the normal S classes might but AMG and Maybach for sure actually had push to start if you have keyless go. You put your foot on the brake and hold the botton on top of the shifter and it starts the car. This might've came with the refresh but worth a shot.

    I have an R52 Cooper S Sidewalk (520 left in the uk)! Loads of fun, still looks great even now but almost has a classic feel to it! It's the last of the 1st gen and last of the superchargers. I think the bonnet / hood release is on the right side as these cars are designed for right and drive and adapted for the left hand drive probably to pay homage to the UK roots of the mini. Either way these cars are great, fun factor 10/10.

    As a driver of a CGI 200 C-Class, wagon, who was also shopping for a coupe, you nailed the plus’s of these cars. Another feature not mentioned is the excellent steering response. A Benz service manager told me that the 204s have the best driving feel of any of the 2000s C-Class models to date. My car has the optional pop up screen with back up camera, which eliminates the issues with the HAL 9000 LEDs on your car. Buy another? Yes, especially a diesel.

    Loved this! They did age well. I was actually considering one of these last year when I was car shopping, because I've never driven/had a convertible, and currently married with no kids it's a perfect moment to have a silly non-practical car. I was considering this or maybe an MX-5 NC with retractable hard top as well. But that one even with the roof up has a non existent space without "rear seats" or a boot that could be used for more than a grocery bag. This one on the other hand, I can imagine being surprisingly practical if you're clever enough 😁

The approach angle is only 33 degrees, no matter what your clearance is your gonna hit something. It's only for show. It's too big. Bigger than a Volkswagen Multivan, Mercedes-Benz V, Land-Rover Defender 130. Why is it so big. It's only for show. 17 mpg. lulz.

      @abriatus 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      With all due respect, I think you may be a bit confused on what Ford Raptors are for (compared to other off-roaders such as a Wrangler). Their goal is to go really fast on loose terrain, not rock crawling. Think of it as the use a Dakar Truck, or Rally Car would see. Of course, their approach angles in these situations are close to irrelevant. Sure, 99% of these will probably never see these conditions (this one did, as shown in the video), but I'm sure 99% of Lamborghinis will never see the track and that doesn't make them crap cars. To be honest, I had never cruised at 110 miles per hour on a dirt road as "safely" and comfortably as before driving an F-150/Ranger Raptor. The Tl:Dr is: If rock crawling/trails is your goal, get a Wrangler. If you want to feel like a baja driver, get a Raptor.
