BUSINESS COLLECTOR VEHICLES A HEN WITH GOLDEN EGGS
When we talk about collector vehicles, we are talking about beautiful cars from the past, but non-collectors do not imagine that all the rules they know will change completely ! Indeed, owning and driving a vintage car is a game-changer. Let's take an example : if you own a car of an old brand that still exists today, say a Ford, a beautiful Ford T which is an automobile manufactured from 1908 to 1927 by the Ford Motor Company and is the first car to be manufactured in series, no need to cross the doorstep of an agent (or dealer, or even branch) of the brand because they can't do anything for you ! Indeed, they will not do the maintenance for lack of competence, but also for lack of parts, etc... For routine maintenance or a repair, you will either have to do it yourself or go to a specialist garage for classic vehicles. And in terms of spare parts, here too, it is common, even often mandatory, to come to the garage with one or more spare parts, obtained through visits to shows, stock exchanges and certain suppliers of parts for vintage vehicles. . You begin to understand! No, it's not like driving a recent car. We have learned that a passionate collector has an extraordinary stock of spare parts of all brands, but alas, taken by age (alas, no one is getting any younger) and health problems, he made the decision to part with his precious booty. The parts are either new vintage or used and in very good condition with little or no wear, ready to be used for the maintenance and repair of classic cars. Please note, this is a very large stock of parts (about 20 tons of parts), there is everything ! Platinum screws, 6v, 12v bulbs, lights, meters, engine parts, and many other things that we can't describe everything to you, that would take too long. This is a rare opportunity, either for a collector or for anyone wishing to get into the very lucrative business of vintage car parts. Yes, it's a very good plan, and even if it means repeating myself, the transferor is taken by age and complicated health. Of course, you have to make him a reasonable financial offer, but if you are passionate or dream of getting started, to ensure continuity in all this, you will score one more point for closing the deal. If you want to get started and you lack skills, the latter is even ready to accompany (coach) the lucky buyer to pass on his knowledge, for a very modest compensation, because it is also his passion that he can pass on . If you are interested, do not hesitate to send me your details by email, as well as an offer, etc... I will be happy to make the link, the interface to put you in direct contact with the transferor if you are French-speaking, or as an intermediary to help if you are English-speaking. A meeting with a translator is of course possible with the transferor. So go ! Because all this is an opportunity, but beware, the deal is good, it may go quickly.

SPECIAL PROJECTS OF UNIQUE FERRARI AND EVEN SOME BEAUTIFUL
Did you know that anyone can order Ferrari a unique car? Finally, anyone with the means and his entrances to Ferrari. Ferrari showed its latest custom Ferrari with its own model number: SP38. The letters SP correspond to the initials of "Special projects", a division of Ferrari opened in 2007 and which is in its 38th delivery. Ferrari offers this service to the ultra-rich, the 0.001% of the planet, usually people who have already bought cars to the arched stallion. The Ferrari SP38 is based on the chassis and mechanics of the 488 GTB but small specificity: the designers have made a body that will allow its only owner to drive in his car. For which client? We will only know-discretion oblige- that this customer, * is "deeply passionate about motor racing" . The opposite would have surprised us! This Ferrari carbon fiber is driven by a V8 double turbo of 3.9 L in rear central position generating 670 hp. The SP38 is included in the Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance, on the shores of Lake Como near Milan.

AUTOMOBILE RULES MORE STRICT

TO APPROVE NEW VEHICLES

At the Dieselgate, new rules will improve the transparency of the approval and commissioning procedures for new vehicles. In 2015, the Dieselgate had weakened the automotive sector. Volkswagen has admitted to having equipped 11 million of its diesel cars, including about 600,000 in the United States, software capable of distorting the results of pollution tests.

It could also conceal emissions sometimes exceeding 40 times the allowed standards. After the Dieselgate scandal, Europe continues to draw conclusions and adopt new rules. The agreement will enter into force on 1 September 2020.

Brussels has decided as follows: the tightening of the approval rules for new vehicles. An agreement was voted Thursday, April 19 by MEPs.

Controls and sanctioning power will be strengthened. If the parliamentary commission of inquiry had mentioned the creation of a European homologation body, the idea was finally not retained.

Mandatory controls

"This legislation will make cars safer and cleaner and, in combination with tests in real driving conditions, will ensure that a dieselgate will never arrive again," said the rapporteur of the text, MEP Daniel Dalton ( UK). In practice, the Commission may impose administrative fines on manufacturers or technical services. In addition, she will be able to test and inspect vehicles on her own.

As for the Member States, they will have to carry out every year a minimum number of checks of vehicles: At least one control every 40 000 new motor vehicles registered in the country the previous year and at least 20% of these tests will have to concern the emissions.

In addition, the technical services that carry out the certification tests will be subject to regular and independent audits.

THE VOLVO XC40 SACRED "CAR OF THE YEAR 2018"
The jury, made up of 60 European automotive journalists, awarded the coveted car title of the year 2018 at the inauguration of the Volvo XC40 Geneva Motor Show. For the first time the Swedish brand, now owned by the Chinese group Geely, on the highest step of the podium For the first time in forty years the model is dedicated a "premium" Until then, this prize, awarded by journalists from twenty-two countries, was de facto the preserve of generalist manufacturers. The last premium model that won was the Porsche 928 in 1978. The Volvo, the second car-of-the-year SUV, was ahead of competitors in the race, far ahead of the Seat Ibiza, the BMW 5 Series, the Kia Stinger, the Citroën C3 Aircross and the Alfa Romeo Stelvio. The XC40 takes place on the fast-growing market of so-called "compact" SUVs and presents itself as an alternative to German "premiums" . In addition to a typical Volvo style and interior design, inspired by the "Scandinavian" style , the XC40 offers surprising driving qualities and a surprising level of comfort. There is no lack of this model in terms of technology, including autonomous driving. The XC40 is the first model based on Volvo Cars' new Compact Modular Architecture (CMA) platform, which will power all future 40-series models, especially 100% electric vehicles. Developed in collaboration with Geely, the CMA platform enables Volvo Cars to achieve the necessary economies of scale in this segment. The XC40 is also the first Volvo vehicle to feature Car Sharing, powered by Volvo's digital key technology and connected service platform, Volvo On Call The XC40 is a modern, urban SUV that leans more towards SUVs than higher station wagons. "This award from our new XC40 is very timely," said Håkan Samuelsson, President and CEO of Volvo Cars. "For the first time in its history, Volvo offers a range of three SUVs worldwide. As a future growth engine, the XC40 opens the doors for the new, dynamic segment of compact SUVs. " An international award that once again marks the weight of compact SUVs on traditional sedans, which have been losing ground for several years.
