By chance ended up with Volvo in which they had a very interesting offer for a showroom model Volvo S60 D4 R Design (thick rims, special grill, silver mirrors, lowered spoiler and dual exhaust) with the following options.
- Business Pack Pro
- Driver Support Line
- Security Line
- Winter Line
- Sliding / tilting sunroof
- Volvo On Call
Overall a super complete car, which thanks to a showroom offer and now 20% aggregation leads to a very large monthly savings. For what is fine, and despite a very nice and beautiful car can deliver to drive. Delicious 5-cylinder sound is lovely to hear and despite lower output 163 hp compared to the max at 175 horsepower (both 400 Nm) is the faster, particularly by the lower weight.
'm So curious how it pleases, but am definitely looking forward to it!
The 1st German kilometers (4,000 km)Last week, a second well on the gas went to Germany.
Must say this is pretty good by! Now the 18 "Fortuna wheels and tires you notice that the tires which are softer and therefore, there is less grip in the corners, but the handling is still thick for each other.
The rear windows are shuttered by means of foil (professional done) and thereby the appearance is even better.
will shortly be if he gets clean again take some pictures and put on the internet with these rims and dark windows.
Delicious! (6,500 km)What a wonderful sound which still five cylinder!
It is as soon as he revs is a delight of the sound, which you must take into account the long gears, so good in the speed at which the engine sings it.
He is now 18 "245 alloy (see photos) in winter version in which he looks even better in my view than the original wheels.
Also my 1st experience now with the On Call app. Very useful function. The alarm went ( incorrectly) off where I was and shortly thereafter was called by Volvo on Call if everything was okay. Overall there watching it on my Volvo. a message on my phone
, the suspension (sport suspension) is somewhat hard adjustment, so at sharp bumps is this kind by, but after some time you become used to it here.
1 holiday further (15,000 km)Last week for the first time been on holiday with the Volvo namely namely skiing with the family. In short, with his 4and and the entire pack. Fortunately, the Volvo dealer has a large roof box and roof rack with leased so what more extra space.
The use of the ski box could easily all along (like 3 pairs of skis and three sleds, etc.) outside of course all other necessities. Now with the big ski box on top and ride lot (cruis control 150) still remains a consumption of over 1op10 very neat, I would say.
Until now my average consumption of 15.0000 km round 1op14,3 where the ski holiday has pushed down as he was until recently 1op15,2.
Not bad I would say with a very sporty undercarriage added there.
Overall is still good.
1 year later (43,000 km)Now, one year and 43 000 km further with the S60, and can say nothing but praise !! Still get a lot of compliments on the appearance and still enjoy every day with all the luxury and the sound!
The car is quite fast and well run in. He although I do like a bit of throttle, still an average consumption of 16.5 km / l, all in all not too bad I guess.
Technical maintenance on a liter of oil (which is normal in accordance with the dealer) after no problem at all, and also no rattles.
Let the fun next year.
It's hard (73,000 km)Now already 73 000 km on the clock without significant issues.
He likes now and then a sip of oil, but that is still limited, especially given my age (the car asks for it) behavior I find quite reasonable.
He may shortly be again drag on vacation and a 1,500-kg trailer (something he does with pleasure).
Also the service of Volvo Dordrecht until today nothing but praise. They are waiting for you and are really trying to provide service, something that Volkswagen may still learn a lot from.
In short, we drive further fine.
End in sight (120,000 km)Volvo is about to be replaced. Have to agree with the leasing company to take the Volvo earlier order again be able to order a car 20% for 2016.
It has become an Audi A6 2.0 TDI S line with automatic transmission and 190 hp. Look forward to going to drive here, even though the Volvo experience me very great pleasure and leave no 1x me. It has now been found after this mileage to be a very reliable and high-quality assembled car! No rattle and he keeps going as again recently on vacation with a 1,500-kg trailer with 110 km / h without any problem a mountain. And considering all the cars which painstakingly Mountain emerged wants to say something.
The car then bought new in the period when he was road tax free. Company car (touran) would be privately used again going to be so the Alhambra was traded on the black i10 with aircon.
In three years, 15,000 km driven without the hood is opened. Two maintenance uplift particles (around 160 euros) he has had. Only small trips and sporadically once to Rotterdam or along to the holiday destination in the Netherlands.
For winter a set of winter tires through marketplace and a spare tire is purchased. This has been the only investment. Recently for little picked a set of original roof rack marketplace. Will the boat the kids easily to the port.
Value for money is absolutely right. Fine city car where you can still feel free to experience a great ride. Seats are good, three rear seatbelts, good AC. Connecting fine radio option USB / iPhone.
Okay ... finishing inside is very plastic, tires humming and an armrest would be handy.
Consumption, I would not know. With this mileage is not relevant.
Highly recommended this Hyundai.
Update: consumption has been on this site do a thing. Therefore, the math and the car has averaged over the last period (3 years) so one drove on 15.4. No top score but considering most small drives use a neat result.
After more than 120.000km E46 M3, I was looking for another sports car in 2006. Was watching ah between M6, Porsche 997 MK1 and the Aston Martin V8 Vantage
Aston Martin V8 Vantage soon fell off, look the most beautiful but technique and performance were very disappointing. My then M3 was just faster, better and above all better finished .... The 997 MK1 could not really fascinate appearance, MK2 out, however, afterwards better waited especially since depreciation ve 911 suits is lower.
Then talk about the M6, my model description, the positive things, the negative things and any technical manko's far ....
Description:
Do this BMW M6 newly purchased in April 2006 (pre-facelift), full full option and Individual performance with Ruby Black metallic and golden brown interior. Also Drivers Package option chosen with the factory speed limit of 250km / h is taken off with preservation of warranty. Main options that were not choosing compared M5: adaptive cruise control is not possible, automatically inward pinching lumbar support and take your turn ... ie some options not available with M6 also to keep it lighter compared M5
Positive:
* phenomenal performance car is faster than the manufacturer ... According factory 4.6 sec to 100 but several car magazines have clocked it at 4.2 seconds ... himself experienced several times compared MK2 Porsche 997 C2S PDK which is about as fast. Car is also compared to other sports cars quickly from 160km / h, actually continues to attract huge to 270km / h ... then goes quite to the 300 itself made a top of 315km / h on the counter on the autobahn but quite a very long straight necessary ...
* for a large GT very good handling if not the best handling sports GT, the 911 handling course, what you mainly notice in long fast corners> 200km / h or if you have to brake, then a Porsche still better on the road. It's no sports car, for it is he too heavy, too big and too high seating position.
* Exceedingly comfortable on long trips at high speed
had * engine hitherto infallible, has always high oil consumption but that was my last revving M3 as well. Other M5 and M6 owners have the same oil consumption is normal apparently, whatever agreed garage .... counting on 0.5 liters of oil Castrol 10W60 per 1000-1500km approximately, depending on driving style.
* SMG III gearbox perfectly fast and hard switching to sporty driving, current DSG bake better and a little faster, pain in the ass but to cut-through traffic identifier city ... auto mode worthless ...
* EDC adaptive suspension works perfectly, hard M mode, comfortably enough in normal mode
* brakes bite well and certainly adequate for everyday use, but for track use better exchange against BMW performance brakes ... Its a lot better than the E46 M3 brakes were useless on track ...
* seating position for excellent rear negligible, my M3 was behind more space, trunk then a nice size
* logic 7 audio system 1 vd best I've ever heard, even at 100% open and full bass not krimpje crackles, really fantastic sound system
* maintenance costs are very great, major maintenance was 1,200 euros, 600 euros little ...
Negative:
* consumption: accounting for 14 to 15 liters in normal use .... and above all for sports use
* suspension and brakes see above
* expected no sports car ala 911, R8 or the like in cornering ... on straights but definitely highway as good if not better / faster ... very sporty GT
* expensive leather option wears quickly ad cheeks
* crappy position of the front seat belts, in a third compartment they already had automatic belt principals ... why not in a 6 ?? You almost can AEM dislocated twist to it.
Manko's:
* rear PDC falls since 65.000km out in wet weather or after washing ... wss a short circuit at one vd pdc eyes, I have to check here to repair itself wss
* car electric steering lock has sometimes refused service last year I want to start the car, this is a known problem with the e60, e61 and e63 line ... is annoying because you have to with all their might without aah steering wheel rotation until the error goes away ... to solve simple through a print ticket that allows you to bypass the electric steering lock, for sale to install via Germany and in 5 minutes. You can also BMW garage to look at but I could read in various forums that it often comes back and BMW almost entire column replaces what is absolutely unnecessary and enkem pricey.
* Few bands that can handle the power, even by slipping rear tires at full load in 3rd gear ... standard contingency contactsport2 or Michelin inadvisable Pilotsport2, much better experience with Michelin Super Sports as a regular band or Pirelli Pzero Corsa semi slick if you do occasionally circuit .... unfortunately Michelin pilot sport cup2 semi slick (yet) available in standard M6 rim.
