1981 Bmw 633csi on 2040-cars
Southborough, Massachusetts, United States
|
This 1981 633csi was my first car. I no longer have the money/space to maintain it to my likings. The car originated in Seattle Washington where the owner kept it in a
garage rarely driving it. The car was then sold to a man in
California. I then purchased the vehicle in the summer of 2008 with 90,000
miles. When I bought the car it had a cold start problem. I had to replace the
reluctor wheel in the distributor and ever since then I have not had any issues
with it starting. The car recently received new front control arms and tie rods
because of old age. The handling of the car was improved greatly as a result and they should last for another hundred thousand miles. The interior of the car is very clean. I added a Blaupunkt stereo with built in Bluetooth as well as replaced the two rear speakers. The seats are very comfortable made out of a tan leather and purple stitching. The rest of the interior is Brown and Black. The dashboard also has some small cracks in it. A previous owner had the car repainted. A small section at the bottom left of the rear window is starting to peel however it is not very noticeable. On the trunk the paint is slightly cracked. Overall the car still feels very solid for a 34 year old vehicle (it was manufactured in 1980). It currently has over 120,000 miles. The clutch easily has another 50,000 miles in it. The car was used as a daily driver for about six years until I moved and bought a new car. There are no strange shakes and rattles and it is surprisingly reliable in the snow. Although the transmission does perform just fine, the first and second gear synchros are slightly worn requiring a little more force to engage when accelerating quickly. The gears do not crunch however you will be able to tell the transmission has 120,000 miles on it. This vehicle will make a perfect first car or a great project car for anyone who wants to dive into easy to work on BMWs. I have included all the paperwork from the previous owners as well as a book on wiring diagrams for the vehicle. Below is a list of some of the minor problems with the car.

EPA: Four 2014 Mini Cooper models need to drop mpg numbers
Wed, Oct 22 2014After the huge problems that Hyundai/Kia experienced with its mislabeled fuel economy labels, you'd think that any time an automaker has to adjust its mpg numbers, heralds would be shouting from the rooftops. But, after Ford admitted to three big mistakes with its numbers for the 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Mercedes-Benz had to lower the fuel economy rating for the C-Class, we understand if those heralds are a bit tired by now. The models affected include the 3-door and the 3-door S. Still, today's news is that BMW has to lower the fuel efficiency numbers for four versions of the 2014 Mini Cooper thanks to an audit conducted by the EPA and then some joint re-testing. The models affected include the 3-door with the 1.5-liter engine and the 3-door S with its 2.0-liter powerplant, with both manual and semi-automatic transmissions. As with the Benzes, the rating changes are not big ones, around one or two miles per gallon. The big exception is the manual S 3-door's highway number, which lost four mpg from 38 to 34. You can see all the numbers, new and old, in the press release below, but the EPA isn't saying what caused the problem this time. The Agency's new test procedures can't come fast enough. It should be noted that the 2015 Mini Cooper was recently delayed a bit because of the extra time it took to get the EPA numbers right. There's no confirmation that these two items are connected, but we would not be surprised to hear they were. EPA Requiring BMW to Correct Fuel Economy Labels for Four Mini Cooper Vehicles Washington - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is revising estimates for four 2014 BMW Mini Cooper vehicles to ensure consumers are given accurate fuel economy values. The EPA performed a fuel economy audit on the BMW Mini Cooper and obtained values that differed from those BMW submitted to EPA for certification. With EPA oversight, BMW conducted new emissions and fuel economy testing, and EPA conducted its own testing at its National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory in Ann Arbor, Michigan. As a result of this subsequent testing, EPA is requiring BMW to relabel four of its 2014 Mini Cooper models with lower fuel economy values. The specific changes to fuel economy stickers are listed in the table below.

Tue, 28 May 2013BMW's Best 1 Series Gives Back What You Put In
Every once in a while, I find myself, despite my solitary leanings and inherent modesty, working out in some kind of class setting. The tone and tenor of these classes ranges wildly - from the quiet, follow-the-leader variety, to those with a kind of Cult of Personality man or woman calling the shots, usually with idiom-laden shouting and theatrical hair. Despite their personal variation and range of professional effectiveness, there's one common concept that most instructors bring up at some point: working with intention.
The idea, as it relates to physical fitness, is that focusing your brain on the movement at hand - the rate of your own breathing, or the muscle groups being worked for instance - helps to perform the act efficiently and correctly. Having spent a happy majority of the last decade in an exercise-free near-debauch, I was a bit surprised to find out that this kind of mental game really works pretty well.
