Volkswagen Passat, 1993 г.
Здравствуйте уважаемые водители. Расскажу о своём авто, насколько я его узнал за 10 лет постоянной эксплуатации. Купил я своего Пассата в ноябре 2006 года. Мотор 1.8 моновпрыск (mono-jetronic), 5-мкпп, цвет — серый металлик, полный эл. пакет, доводчики стекол, 4 диска (литье), комплектация АРРИВА, кенвуд + внешний усилитель и тп!
Машина в идеальном состоянии, я имею ввиду для б/у, не крашена ни в одном месте, соответственно не бита!
Мотор не вскрывали, так как на прокладке 1 дыра). КПП — тоже в идеале, ходовку подделал по мелочи и катаюсь!
ПАССАТ-это вместительность, эксплуатационные качества, зап части всегда можно найти и стоят они на много дешевле, чем на другие авто, приемистый мотор и динамические качества…

Post-Brexit decline in British car sales predicted
Market analyst IHS Global predicts a slump in car sales of around 10% following the recent vote to leave the European Union
Britain’s new car market is feared to be heading into a post-Brexit decline destined to knock sales back to 2.4 million a year in 2017 – a loss of around 250,000 new car sales.
The disappointing forecast has emerged as the car industry grapples with the fall-out of the Brexit vote, which has knocked sterling and business confidence and is negatively impacting investment.
«These are early days,» said a spokesperson at market researcher IHS Global, «but we are in a negative shock situation and the initial assessment is a decline in the market.»
New car sales were expected by IHS Global to hit 2.7m by the end of this year, a small increase on last year’s 2.6m.
However, the negative effect on the UK economy is now forecast to push that down by up to 55,000 units to 2.64m.
«Effectively, all the growth experienced in the first half of the year is likely to be wiped out,» said IHS Global analyst Colin Couchman.

Brexit: UK government to push for tariff-free car trade with EU
Business secretary Sajid Javid says the government will fight against the introduction of a 10% tariff on imported, EU-built new cars
The government will push for tariff-free access for cars to the EU market post-Brexit, business secretary Sajid Javid told the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) International Automotive Summit today.
Getting access to the EU market without cost barriers is one of the key objectives of the UK car industry in the next two years of trade negotiations that will create the post-Brexit business environment.
Tariff-free access will ensure that UK-built cars don’t suffer a cost penalty. But with tariffs working both ways, the UK would be expected to introduce a similar 10% tariff on EU-built imports into the UK.
“Top of my list is getting the tariff-free access to the EU market that the car industry needs,” Javid told a packed audience in London.
The car industry fears that the EU will lumber cars built in the UK with a 10% tax that will push up costs. Components and parts, such as finished engines, many of which are built in the UK, might attract a 5% tariff.
Javid also asked the car industry to engage with government and provide input for the coming two years of Brexit negotiations with the EU.
“What do you need for the negotiations that are coming?» he said. «We will have to build from the ground up – and I want to hear from you. You know your suppliers best.
“The auto sector has also been a model of co-operation with government, with the private sector coming together with government to generate success.»
Javid also praised the car industry’s strengths in his speech, listing technical advances and problem solving as strengths the industry can be proud of. “You are innovative and you rise to challenges,» he said. «These are qualities that will matter going forward.”
The government is also planning to ensure that investment continues in the car industry.
“The UK is a leading destination for international investment in manufacturing and we cannot afford to turn our backs on the world,” said Javid.
“In a sky full of stars your sector shines brighter than most, with a vehicle off the lines every 16 seconds, most for export.”

Porsche test and development driver Lars Kern admits he was “a little bit confused” when his bosses told him they were planning a super-quick lap of the Nürburgring Nordschleife in the new Panamera Turbo.
“Normally we do this kind of thing with the 911 or Boxster,” he says. “But the engineers were confident it was going to work.”
All BMW cars to join Internet of Things with Connected Drive
SIM card technology to feature in every BMW road car; enables remote updates to software
BMW is using SIM card-based Connected Drive technology to integrate all of its new cars into the Internet of Things and enable remote software updates.
Currently, the technology pairs a car to an owner’s smartphone to communicate with other connected devices, but BMW plans to directly pair its cars with other devices, such as an owner’s house and heating system, to offer a wide range of intelligent connected services.
“All UK cars have a SIM card built into them, so that’s enabling every car to be connected,” said Andrew Furse, product manager at BMW UK. “That means we can keep the car connected throughout its life, not just new cars coming through.”
Furse explained that this SIM technology has enabled BMW to pair its vehicles with owner’s homes using something called smart home control, which was launched earlier this year and enables owners to adjust house appliance settings from behind the wheel.
“You can see if your smoke alarm has gone off because you’ll get a notification in the car, or you can see if there’s a water leak and then speak to whoever’s in the house to find out what’s going on,” continued Furse.

Volkswagen boss: 180-mile range is tipping point for EV boom
VW predicts that electric models will soon make up the largest portion of its sales figures, but diesel to remain the choice for long-distance drivers
The «tipping point» for sales of Volkswagen’s new range of electric vehicles (EVs) to become popular family cars will be a range of 180 to 280 miles, according to VW global sales and marketing boss Jürgen Stackmann.
Speaking at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, Stackmann told Autocar that electric car range anxiety is going to ‘go away’, while affordability will improve, putting EVs in a position to challenge petrols and diesels as everyday family cars.
He also revealed that a battery capacity of 60kWh would be needed to achieve VW’s range target.
“We will have to make this change, because all regulations are aiming at zero emissions eventually,» he said.
