Oh god... India.... was there (Mumbai) for a business trip. Co worker took an early open air "cab" to the office. Thing got hit by a truck. Not quite sure who's fault it was but he ended up in the hospital for 2 days. Lost his phone and no one could contact him. Work ended up initiating our emergency response protocols and the US Consulate Office was able to track his ass down to some shitty hospital.

Did ED with my car and Euro drivers are much more courteous than US drivers. The only time I saw a "slow" car on the left was when I was coming back from Stuttgart headed to Munich and there was literally only one lane open due to construction. Even then, as soon as the construction site opened up to regular flow of traffic. Everyone kept to the right and all the other cars looking to pass stayed left. In the US you would've seen people weaving all in between once the lanes opened up. There was never a time were I was like "WTF is guy doing??!?" Except when I saw a mini van pass me doing 120+mph with the driver texting and the passenger in the back seat asleep. I sped up to catch a second look and was astonished lol

I did see a couple sport bikes pass left lane cars but that was on an unrestricted part of the autobahn and the bikes simply were moving too fast.
That's the race ! Räikkönen had new tires in the pit ...


No worries my friend . I know you can drive your car !
Nice to see you back on BP

BOOM !

But you have better bearings in your F82 .

I received lots of videos (PM's) from S65's with bearing issues . Saw also guys (pics) on here with copper shavings in oil filter !

The worldwide S65 situation is NO good , more BF will come !

On the other hand...Yeah , I still love my car .

The most dangerous issue with European & American drivers is you all drive on the wrong side of the road

34%

Around 34% of the world's population drives on the left hand side of the road, including the UK and many Commonwealth countries, including Australia, India and South Africa.

That leaves sixty six percent driving on the wrong side of the road

Before we had cars English horse riders rode on the left thus leaving their right hand free to offer greetings or to draw their swords
