In Italy they are a bit more common, especially at local motorist meetings.
Quote: 1: To get a spare part for my HPE you had to take the old one with you as I found when I needed a new distributor cap. What was there, went on. If it wasn't there, something else did. Welcome to Italian manifacturing, have a nice stay. Some things never change. That didn't.
Quote: they corroded if you mentioned the word "rain", It was common for Italian cars before the 1990s, there were special treatments done aftermarket - usually scrubbing to bare metal, covering with a waterproof base varnish and then painting over it. Older cars had the paint straight on the metal, with the results we know.

A week ago we took the Autobahn too, via Bocholt and Aachen to Vaals, but that did not went as smoothly as we thought, we had some traffic jams sadly
Quote: Wir fahr'n fahr'n fahr'n auf der autobahn
Vor uns liegt ein weites tal
Die sonne scheint mit glitzerstrahl
Die fahrbahn ist ein graues bandWeisse streifen, gruener rand
Jetzt schalten wir das radio an
Aus dem lautsprecher klingt es dann
Wir fahr'n auf der autobahn

On friday I will coming all the way up from the south and go home to Düren. You must have passed the exit on your way to Aachen.

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

They have nice 'Teufelsenf' mustard in Aachen which goes well with the cheese, I bought some from a peddler in the city center. To my surprise he could speak Dutch, and it turned out he even had studied Dutch.
So I can only conclude that this historic city is certainly worth a visit

Did you at least visit the emperor?

Ahhh, I remember a similar ride like that on the Autobahn, perfect weather, no traffic worth mentioning.
From Karlsruhe to Mannheim on the A65 in about 15 min => +/- 200km/h, then via Kaiserslautern to Trier at a more sedate 160/170. Unlike Belgian traffic absolute and total Freude am Fahren

Friday I will have to drive around 750 km and I will certainly not go full blast all the way.

Faster than I ever dared in my '94 Miata, which was not known for speed. Perfectly straight state highway, crystal blue skies, no traffic. Ran it up to 108 mph (174 km/h) before the suspension started to feel a little shaky. Still, great fun.
Best fun I ever had in the car was playing chase-the-rabbit with a brand new, high-end Camaro through a twisty country road. By the end of it he was slaloming through both lanes trying to keep up with me, while I was hugging the right lane like it was my long-lost child .

I'm afraid I start to freak out at about 160 kph. Best speed drive I ever had was on the Spanish tollway during their recession, all the truck drivers were unwilling to pay the tolls.
The 3 speeding tickets I got later that year did dampen the fun but the little Audi 3 happily trundled down the freeway at 160.

Nice clue, it works well...
although I just couldn't get "dram" so I was nowhere near a solution. I need to start drinking more whiskey, obviously
