Type 1 engine? isn't it a 1971? (better than a 1972 with a type 4 engine)

Good job staying with it. The Ercoupe, like all low powered aircraft, appreciates total energy management. Not much can be done for fuel energy help as the Stromberg carburetor doesn't lean as well for the extra rpm. We can, however, find extra natural energy. Get the nose wheel just off as soon as possible as in the soft field takeoff, get the mains off as soon as possible as in the soft field takeoff, push/pull the yoke dynamically and proactively to level the fuselage in low ground effect (we want all wheels off for friction reduction and a level pitch attitude) for maximum acceleration possible, and pitch up to just over the trees. I assume it was a down drainage egress, critical especially at high DA. I flew the Ercoupe and all the other small Continental engine airplanes in the mountains. It is an underrated but fine airplane.

Whenever I access carfromjapan I *ALWAYS* encounter an error message, and can do nothing about it (typically Error 500). What I'm wondering, is if the cost didn't just include the car [in the condition it was in when it arrived] as well as equipment/accessories/spare parts (and I suppose the particular shipping costs of the specific port that it was to be delivered to)... But also, whether or not it included the cost of registration, number plates, taxes perhaps associated with export and/or import, guarantees, insurances etc.? Perhaps even things such as location of premises where it was sold (which isn't really a good enough excuse to increase the price - among several other of the factors). I wonder what the situation with negotiating the price ended up entailing??

depends what spec you get, ive seen pretty basic spec have all the vents and speakers in the doors. but uk they cost a bit more that usa the one im looking at is around $8500 mark but only 40k miles and like new condition. depends on how basic the basic the first owner wanted as you can get few with center light too but they do tend to be pretty basic but i feel that is the charm of them too, just less to go wrong. and now uk becoming country with lower limits popping up everywhere and cameras a slow van i feel not an issue and rarely go on to bigger roads so speed it won't effect me much as where i am its a fast less than 30 min drive on 70 mph before on to 50 and 60 country roads so ideal cruising speed for one these. one these but slightly newer as we have clean air zones what charge to enter so buy the right age its free if not its £8-12 a day that adds up. my next car/van buy its one these but slightly newer or a modern euro 6 engine i20 what should be free to enter these fraud zones for a lot longer that only cars on top my list to by next, nothing else caught my eye and boring

You want parts for your kei van, your best bet is to find another van exactly like it and buy it and use that one for parts. Its waaaay less headache than hunting online for individual parts. It will make having flat tires way less of a proplem. Just grab it off the parts van.

@TheScottishKayaker6 күн бұрын
The cars themselves are only about $2-3k, but they are being imported privately, so dealers sell them around $7-8k. This leads to an inflated resale value when the buyer goes to sell it as they don't want to lose that additional cost. These will definitely start to come down as more get imported, but since they are popular and people are willing to pay that price for them, it is going to be a while.
