I hope Amzamz stops deliberately and not because of some malfunction
Amzamz, I really appreciate your regular sharing of photos. Thumbs up for finding good sceneries. I particularely like the panorama shots you make. Is this a default setting of your camera? Or do you edit the pics?

Countries touched include: Germany (18,787km), Netherlands (1,121km), Belgium(1,320km), France (4,919km), United Kingdom (7,021km), Denmark (350km), Sweden (1,016km), Norway (2,870km), Spain (956km), Andorra (48km), Monaco (10km), Italy (406km), Switzerland (3,188km and a speeding ticket), Liechtenstein (5km), Austria (83km). A total of 42,100km so far... and no major problems... I can recommend (a) the German "autobahn" for acceleration and speed, (b) the mountain roads of Switzerland, Andorra, France etc for uphill chases and (c) the coastline of France or Italy, or the city centers of London or Barcelona for onlookers or just to promenade with your girl friend.
Europe is divided into three parts (1) too wet (the North, Centre and West), (2) too hot (the South) and (3) too risky for car theft (the East) and the three parts even overlap! I would love to get the opportunity to do Scotland, Portugal or Greece next...Last edited by F Spider; 16-01-2024, 04:41.

I wonder whether yours would qualify as the one with most mileage?? Most I've seen 4-digits. You would definately be a good contender! :lol:Last edited by F Spider; 16-01-2024, 04:40.Rijk

high mileage
A simple thought and a brief investigation:
How long would the Spyker last? How can we make a guess? The body and engine is aluminium, the handicraft looks excellent, the engine is Audi A8...
I have investigated a German website for second hand cars AutoScout24 Europas Automarkt für Gebrauchtwagen und Neuwagen and found the following for Audi A8:
0-50,000km------------212 cars for sale
50-100,000km----------404 cars for sale
100-150,000km---------260 cars for sale
150-200,000km---------148 cars for sale
200-400,000km---------76 cars for sale (the highest at 380k)
compare this to
Ferraris (all)
0-50,000km------------610 cars for sale
50-100,000km----------133 cars for sale
100-150,000km---------10 cars for sale
150-200,000km---------2 cars for sale (the highest at 156k)
200-400,000km---------no cars for sale
and compare this to
Porsche 911
0-50,000km------------2377 cars for sale
50-100,000km----------1079 cars for sale
100-150,000km---------447 cars for sale
150-200,000km---------171 cars for sale
200-400,000km---------62 cars for sale (the highest at 375k)
I guess the Spyker should be fairly good even at higher mileage!!!! Looking at the above statistics, I would be quite confident to actually drive my car up to 200,000km without hesitation. Am I wrong?Last edited by F Spider; 16-01-2024, 04:40.
