@penguinteamsix @SimonCarGuy Ahhh. Ivor

In other news. Debate is raging between my 5yr old son & I on what is the greatest Steam Engine ever. Mallard surely?

@SimonCarGuy The correct answer . Flying Scotsman is also acceptable since they’re brothers

@SimonCarGuy No contest, it's Pat 🥰

@SimonCarGuy @rawlimark Clan Line

@SimonCarGuy Earlier this week …. and to be continued tomorrow 😊 he knows a mallard that’s a given! 😂❤️

@PeterMc_Dermott That’s his view too! His one is currently in maintenance with a transmission fault due to overuse 😆

@SimonCarGuy Got both of thouse engines. Yours look better cared for though 👌

@shutupmoveon @Autoweltmedia As it should be

@Autoweltmedia Messerschmidt for the motorway

Legendary M113K supercharged V8 Mercedes R230 SL55 used the 5.4L supercharged V8, one of AMG’s most loved engines. Around 469 hp and 700 Nm Most powerful Mercedes road car when launched When introduced in 2002, the SL55 AMG was described as the most powerful Mercedes-Benz road car up to that point. Luxury GT, not just sports car. It combined huge power with the R230’s luxury tech, folding hardtop and long-distance comfort. That separates it from smaller AMG cars. Peak 2000s AMG identity Supercharger whine, huge torque, ABC suspension, SBC brakes that all in a luxury roadster. This is the AMG era where power and excess mattered more than weight or simplicity.

@Autoweltmedia I’ll take ten

@BenBeaumont17 @Autoweltmedia No. M539 has convinced himself it's good. It isn't. I don't blame him, as he's in a foreign country and no time. I would send it to an EDM specialist and hone it.

BMW 7 Series, F01. Cheap to buy. Expensive to own. Local prices now start around €7k-9k for the 730d models. That sounds unbelievably cheap for quite a modern luxury flagship. Especially one that still feels this refined today like a 730d and the 740i. Comfort seats. Soft-close doors. Huge motorway presence and the engines are powerful. The N54 and N63 might be the most risky ones to look at. The N57 and N55 powered cars are a little bit safer, but not without their issues. The N52 is the most reliable and least powerful variant out of all of them, but they are rare and weren't sold here in Europe. When maintained properly, they are excellent long-distance cars and they're not the type of cars that get bought by young joyriders. This is still a top-level BMW filled with expensive technology. The depreciation is brutal today and almost 2 decades later it hasn't bottomed out in value.

@BenBeaumont17 @Autoweltmedia It's also a music. Good musics.

@pope2023 @Autoweltmedia Ja

Mooo

@MattTakeThree @RARoberts1958 Auto pilot. Needed

@BenBeaumont17 @RARoberts1958 100k-150k a year

Today, I've driven 146miles. Nothing, barely even a commute. However, in SY/WY/lincs, that's taken 5hr 45min. Jesus... Fuck.

@MattTakeThree @RARoberts1958

@Autoweltmedia Test drive. I was meaning

@BenBeaumont17 For 3000?

V8 plus electric motor It combines the M177 4.0L AMG V8 with electric motors. System output is around 802 hp and 1,430 Nm. Rear-axle electric motor layout The electric motor sits at the rear axle and is integrated with a 2-speed transmission and limited-slip differential. That is much more complex than a normal mild hybrid setup. Performance hybrid, not efficiency hybrid This is not a normal luxury hybrid. Huge torque number changes the character 1,430 Nm is absurd for an S-Class, but the car is a solid 2595 kg heavy. It makes the car less about traditional V8 smoothness and more about instant electric-assisted shove. Different from older S63s and kind of replaces the S65 AMG in a way with so much power. Older S63 models were big V8 luxury saloons that had no electric assistance of any kind.

@Autoweltmedia Ok. Well bit less
