Keep your fingers crossed for me, please

[Anders Dinsen]

I'm going to the "registreringssyn" (a MoT needed to import a car here in Denmark) today for the second time. Last time my Murena failed because of the rusty headlamps, an unfortunate oil spill having developed from the rocker cover gasket, plus missing documentation for the acceptible noise level.

Today I hope to have it passed. Only big joker is whether it will be too noisy? I think not, so it should work out just fine.

But keep your fingers crossed, please!

If it passes I will have it on the road today or tomorrow.

tak!

I expect to be around the same... that's where they all are it seems. Mine doesn't look that good though (a crack in the front bumper and different tones on the panels) so maybe it will be a bit less? I'll keep you posted!

Best of luck Anders, you really want this and deserve it.

Let us know how it goes.

Mine is in the garage today having a few things sorted out, I'm very nervous too!

[Anders Dinsen]

DID IT!

Passed the test. Noise measurements showed 90 dB, but he clearly did not know how to operate the equipment as that was pretty close to the car... anyway that's now what it is approved for. Headlights need to be turned upwards 0,5%, but nothing noted in the papers... i.e. clean approval.

Then rushed to Taastrup to have the tax set - 20.265,- DKK. It took only 10 minutes perhaps! No queue! Then I went off to Ballerup to my bank as the tax people would only accept a bank cheque or cash - they made me a cheque. I went back to Taastrup then, paid the tax and rushed off to Rødovre where the Motorkontor (number plate people) is. They close at 2pm, and I arrived 1:20 - again no queue!! and at 1:35 I was out of there with my new number plates!!!!!!!

YJ 45 904 - not the prettiest number, but it's mine!!!

CONGRATULATIONS

And your tax was even cheaper than mine......

Now you need to put a picture on your profile !

[macaroni]

Blimey, what a palaver!!

Still, all sorted now. enjoy the car and I hope no-one crashes into you!

[Lennart Sorth]

A big hurrah from here !

YJ 45 904 - not the prettiest number, but it's mine!!!

Well, 45 is the danish national dial code, and the Porsche 904 is one of the prettiest cars that company has ever made.

Today's best comment (on a Shell petrol station): "What car is that? It looks like a Ferrari!"

Anyway, here's Troels, the Murena and me :

Nice picture. Do we all have red Murenas around here?

Apart from the guy who hit me and gave an excuse of admiring the car, I had a bloke in a Nissan 300ZX pull alongside me and give me the thumbs up. I get almost as many waves as I do when driving the Multipla!!

[Lennart Sorth]

Do we all have red Murenas around here?

nope :-)

[hru]

Well, could be that us guys in red cars should meet one day
What do you think?

Also ask njesper -when- we can look at the V6

[hru]

By the way ....
Where is the borbet alloys ?

Selvfølgelig skal vi det! Henrik, du arbejder vist i Novo - kommer du til Bagsværd en dag så gir jeg en kop kaffe! Jeg bor 2 km fra campus
Men ellers skal man melde sig ind i Matraklubben, vi havde et hyggeligt og sjovt træf på Stævns den første weekend i september. Der er træf hvert år, næste år bliver det på Fyn.

I did try to get in the danish matraclub a couple of times this spring - but no responses from the chairman :-(
I go to the head campus in near future, so invitation accepted !
