I present to you the "Vision Next 100", the car of the future by BMW:



Difficult to say if it is a functional prototype or that computer generated images ... I still lean for the 2nd hypothesis ...

And I do not know if the body with variable geometry is so good Cx level ... in any case the color is ... shit !! : Mrgreen:

it is not the cx that makes the cost of using a car!

despite the price of energy, it is still the purchase price of the car, and the price of repair, and the price of insurance which increases with the price of repair

we are ruined with the current too complicated car

you can't count on bmw to make the economical car of the future ... you can count on bmw to make cars always too expensive just good for those who have money to waste

it is increasingly difficult to find durable low-end used cars ... even the low-end ones are becoming too complicated a disaster ... the time has come when a completely different new car manufacturer is needed

It is not OCD, it is a delusional monomania, against a background of chronic schizoidy; but it does not advance us any more ...

On occasion I don't know, but in new there is Dacia which meets these criteria. Reliable cars, without superfluous fuss and at low prices, it's perfect, right?

I have doubts about the reliability of the Dacia ... it remains a "discounted" Renault ... therefore the costs are planed at all levels, including that of reliability (of the chassis in particular because the engines are, I think, identical to those of the "real" Renault ...) ... And we know how everyone thinks: repair price / argus quotation ... and since the argus of Dacia is necessarily lower ... you follow me?

A simple test on the second-hand market seems to prove me right ...

2 Results for Dacia
Dacia

France


And if we take real Renault (not terrible compared to the figures for new sales anyway ...):

https://www.autoscout24.fr/resultats?mm ... ard&desc=0

459 Results for Renault
Renault
from 200.000 km
France


We have similar results (400-500) for the other major manufacturers ... including the Germans (except that they sell far more French women than Germans in France ... so mathematically the second-hand market> 200km, with equal reliability, should be proportional to new sales) only Mercedes feels the 000 offers ...

ps: or is it that the owners of Dacia are so happy that they keep it until the end? : Cheesy:

even if the reliability is not perfect, it is not planned that we sell our : Mrgreen:

Your humorous hypothesis is quite likely: Dacia enthusiasts are looking for simple functionality and are therefore less likely to change vehicles because of fashion or a taste for change.

there are really 2 different types of customers ... the one who buys a top of the range bmw type and who sells it quickly to buy the next model ... and the one who buys a utility car and keeps it as long as possible: rather dacia que bmw!

what is the difference between hemorrhoid and bmw? no difference, it's the assholes that have
