Hengst (Honda) Filter Friday. Who knew that 1.6L H Hengst (Honda) Filter Friday.
Who knew that 1.6L Honda filters are so small? 😅
 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The first oil change on the inherited 1999 Honda Civic DX - and I had no idea the filters were so small, or indeed that they’re located on the back of the block 😅
 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s not German like the rest of the cars in here, but it can have a hergestellt (oder Gemacht) in Deutschland Öl filter 😂
Buy a limited edition Kong x VW dog toy, and @vw w Buy a limited edition Kong x VW dog toy, and @vw will donate a second to a shelter pup 🐶

Almost 50 years of Kongs from @kongcompany and 75 years of the @volkswagen Bus - with the inspiration from the toy coming from a rubber suspension bump stop from a VW Bus that was in the toy inventors workshop 💙

And this is our 11-year-old puppy, Axle. I found him on the side of an interstate on a rainy Tennessee mountain, en route to a Volkswagen show in Helen, Georgia. He was just a few months old and covered in ticks. Right around the same time, a car in our convoy had broken an axle, hence his name. ❤️

On the road to @wookiesinthewoods - we’ve driven On the road to @wookiesinthewoods - we’ve driven 1,000km / 600 miles so far today, and the 2.9L VR6 Syncro has only used 2 tanks of fuel.
 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Its computer is showing 10.0L/100km which is 23.5 US MPG, which is awesome - I didn’t expect this range.
 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This fuel stop was $2,99 per gallon for 93 R/N2 / 98 RON octane, at a Buc-ees on I-81 in Tennessee. Yes, they have a lot of pumps 😅

No other tools, and a super busy 5-6 lane section of highway on a curve. Didn’t die, but figured if I was going to get hit by a car, might as well film to get it.

I’m not teasing the car per se, but will share it once I have the keys in hand. it’s also a little bitter sweet. But worth the drive that’s further than Inverness Scotland to Istanbul, Türkiye. 🥹

This one is a TDI with a 5 speed gearbox, which I’m going to ship complete, and then use those parts for the white one I already have had sitting for years in the USA with no motor. Seems like a decent plan, maybe?
 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This one is a German Bundeswehr (military) spec one, with the special body parts, gun rack between the front seats, and the green paint / brown interior. Plus the cool rear tent, with holes in the tailgate so that you can still see the lights when it’s folded down when driving.

All brands,most eras, lots of styles, but the common feature was great stance. This is the show’s third year I think, hosted in a large hall on the outskirts of Brussels, Belgium.
 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The hall historically held a huge car shows years ago too - so you might recognise the backdrop. This year @victorpardal is the MC, and brands like @rotiform and @blackfishgraphics joined dozens of other companies with booths inside.
