General Car Chat / Re: New Omega

« on: 26 January 2019, 14:26:04 »

Hi Dave

I am very happy about the car. It comes with electric adjustable and heated leather seats (memory function), 2 zone AC, Infotainment system Siemens NCDC 2015 (CD, CD changer, navi, phone), Bose sound system, Xenon light, electric windows / mirrors, 225/55 16 alloy wheels and many more. At the present moment the additional winter wheels are mounted.

All systems are working and the car runs very well. Color is Z 298 (Midnight Black Metallic)

Hi Doc

I am very happy, found a 2.2 Caravan in Limited Edition. I like the 4 pot engines because of easy service.

General Car Chat / 850 Km today

« on: 27 December 2018, 21:35:33 »

The old Omega did a great performance. I shorted the tour, because there are so many things i have do here in Lahr. Berlin must wait.

I got the job!!!!

Construction of High End turntables (100k€ class), set up prototypes and bring them to serial production.

Cheers!

General Car Chat / Re: 1.500 miles tour planed next week with my old sedan

THX Sir Tigger

In the 90s i worked for Thorens and Thorens bought a DDR company in Hohenschoenhausen (East Berlin) to set it up to manufacture of CD players and amplifiers. At DDR times the company build observation equipment for the Stasi. The Stasi jail was around the corner. Thorens sent me there to set up the quality control.

It was very strange for me as a wessi to work there, because the Berlin management was complete taken from old Stasi members. They still had a road map in their office with West Berlin cutted out.

Yes it is a beautiful City, because it has so many different faces. You will find anything there. Big city and large forests, nightlife til morning  and lakes.  You can have party in the clubs and in the summertime you can go swimming on your way home 6 a clock in the morning. Everything is just around the corner. I lived in Berlin for some years during the late 90s. Found my wife there.

So it will be a journey into the past.

Of course i will visit my mother. She is still living in Berlin.

Hi Varche

Were did you travel in the Black Forest? I live at the edge of the Black Forest north of Freiburg.

750 € fuel?

I think something around 300 is real. Flixbus is cheaper, but it takes one day to get to Cologne. So i have to stay in a Hotel 2 nights.
So it is cheaper to ride the Omega.

My dream is to ride the Baltic Sea Circle in summer. A couple of maniacs do that every year. All cars must be 20 years or older

Thank you Doc Gollum and VXL V6

The car is absolutely fit. New cam belt in April, new breaks, front and rear suspension overhauled, oil change.. and many more. I like my old Caravan. I did it all by myself. He is not a beauty, but a real good friend on the road.

Hi Folks

Next week (starting Dec. 27. early in the morning) i will start a great German round course wit my old estate (290.000 km on the counter)

I will start here in Lahr, deep down southwest. First stop will be near Cologne. I like to have a new job. My absolute dream Job.

If i get it, it is the reason for the party of the year. If i get it not, i need some help of my friends. So anyway, best is, go to Bremen, my hometown. Party or some help to get through....there are my old friends.

After that i like to visit Berlin again. I lived there for several years and there i meat my wife. I like to visit some magic places. Of course all that was yesterday. My wife died in August. But i like to see and feel Berlin again.

General Discussion Area / First rain since September

« on: 27 October 2018, 17:56:00 »

Today it becomes cold here deepdown southwest. Only 10° C in maximum. Some rain overnight, 3,2 l/m2. The Black forest will have first snow tonight.  Indian Summer is interrupted for some days, but i think there will be some good days (15 - 20°C) in November.

Anyway, my Caravan got new winter tires yesterday. Micheline Alpin 6. 75 Euro each, all inclusive. Because i bought via the company were i am working, the price is without VAT.

Oh

Same Problem here. I was born in Bremen. North Sea. Living now deepdown southwest for 20 years. I am still a stranger, because of my language. Bremen guys speaks German. People here speaks "Badisch". Very strange.
