My home MSCP got E9. Want to view it?

 

I have seen E34 on the road. In fact, Mockingbird sold off his E34 6 mths to 1 yr ago.

 

If i have S$300k cash on hand, i would love to buy that E39 ///M5.

 

It is not about the reliability of the car. It is about getting the right ppl to take care of it.

 

 

I see a few E36 across the causeway. More than than E46. And plenty of E39 (to me, its the best design ever). E34 i do see but not often.

 

E39///M5 V8 400bhp (only) with manual ... will be an all time favourite. Just like the E type and 300SL W194.

My estate also very poor. That unker has to convert his E9 to classic car.

 

The hardest to see nowadays are E39 LCI. That's a gem for keep.

Facelift. Too much influence from newer BMW.

 

 

Thanks! yes, the E39 with first generation angel eyes.

Actual terminology should be Life Cycle Impulse. Facelift is Japanese term for it.

so small? then have to keep going to petrol stn to pump....

 

That's for C180/200 based on the 1.6L.

 

If u look at City cycle, it is still 500km for 1 full tank.

Even for the 1.6L, it is still very small. Most small conti cars with 1.3-1.4 engines already are with 45-50L tank.

 

Can 41L fuel tank give 500km mileage? So good FC?

That's based on data from Merc Germany for city cycle.

 

Apparently, all model is 41L except C250 & C250 Diesel (which is 66L).

Even my first car, the small 1.3l fiat punto has a 47L fuel tank. I think I will have to run to the petrol kiosk once every 5 days if I get the new C class.

That's mean you travel 100km/day. That's rare in Singapore.

I'm doing about 80km/day. My computation basis:

 

Will be pumping about 37-38L per visit to petrol station. Although fuel tank is 41km, I won't be using till the very last drop before pumping. I believe the FC for a C200 is at best 11km/L based on 70% highway and 30% urban driving (I'm normally sceptical about the official figures given by manufacturer which seems always inflated). So that gives me about 410km mileage before each pump and that's about 5 days.

For you, best to avoid C180/200. To protect fuel pump it is best to pump when it drops to 34L (remaining 7L is reserves). This means that 3 days.

With the same 41L, diesel can go 820km on city cycle.
