Hallo aus München und Irland

[Redrocket]

Hello, I apologise in advance for my lack of German. I have just moved from Ireland to Munich, and am looking to continue my passion for classic fords here in Germany. I hope my lack of German language is not a big barrier here.

My name is Steve, I am 25, I am living in Munich for 1 month, starting my new job next week, more importantly, I like fords
I have no fords here, but I am looking forward to buying a mk1 or mk2 escort, or a sierra, all coupes.
Back home in my garage, I have....
1986 capri mk3 laser, 2 litre,
1979 escort mk2 4 door, 2 litre but engine is out,
1977 escort mk2 turnier, 1.3 litre,
And a blasphemous nissan skyline, I am sorry for swearing!

I will get photos up soon!

I will now translate via google translate, please reply in German or English, I dont mind, I will be translating with google again




Hallo, ich entschuldige mich im Voraus für meinen Mangel an Deutsch. Ich bin gerade von Irland nach München umgezogen und freue mich, meine Leidenschaft für klassische Ford hier in Deutschland fortsetzen. Ich hoffe, meine Unkenntnis der deutschen Sprache ist kein großes Hindernis hier.

Mein Name ist Steve, ich bin 25, lebe ich in München seit 1 Monat, beginne meinem neuen Job nächste Woche, was noch wichtiger ist, ich mag Ford: D
Ich habe keinen Ford hier, aber ich freue mich auf den Kauf eines mk1 oder mk2 escort, oder ein sierra, alle Coupés.
Zu Hause in meiner Garage habe ich ....
1986 capri mk3 Laser, 2 Liter,
1979 escort mk2 4-türig, 2-Liter-Motor, der ist aber ausgebaut,
1977 escort mk2 turnier, 1,3 Liter,
Und einen blasphemischen Nissan Skyline, ich bin für die Vereidigung sorry!

Ich werde bald Fotos hochladen!

MK3 Capri, I bought her in Wales 2 years ago with 81800 miles, I put 6000 miles on since. She has full service history, which is nice.

mk2 4 door, currently needs putting back together.

And the estate,

Typical irish ford meet

Hi Steve,

okay, i checkt your google translation and terminated the errors You can´t use those translation progs - most of it works, but there are some bugs in it...

Normally all the user should understand english, so you can aks your question in english - an if there will be no response, call me

but right here: -> the admin welcomes you

and your cars: someone of us will "lick the fingers" what means: they would like to have them, too

so, that´s all from me for this moment

Thanks lads!!

I also have a mk2 mondeo but I gave it to a friend when I left Ireland and a mk1 fiesta rotting in a field, but my real love is for the oldtimers.

I need to sort out a few things before I get a car here, like parking and insurance and license plates, but all good things come to those who wait.
I dont think the above will translate very well....

Danke Jungs!

Ich habe auch einen Mondeo MK2 aber ich habe es an einen Freund, wenn ich Deutschland verlassen und ein mk1 fiesta Fäulnis in einem Bereich, aber meine wahre Liebe ist für die Oldtimer.

Ich muss klären, ein paar Dinge, bevor ich ein Auto hier, wie Parkplätze und Versicherungen und Kfz-Kennzeichen, aber alle guten Dinge will Weile haben.
I dont think oben übersetzen kann sie sehr gut ....

The translation program is just enough to understand what is being said. It translates word by word instead of the whole sentence so everything comes out funny.

Das Übersetzungsprogramm ist gerade genug, um zu verstehen, was gesagt wird. Er übersetzt Wort für Wort, anstatt den ganzen Satz so alles kommt lustig.

Hi Steve,
glad to hear that you moved to munich.
Old Fords are rare in germany - especially good Mk1 and Mk2 Escorts.
Near munich there's a good company for spares - try www.motomobil.de - they also have an english version of their page.

I live north of munich - perhaps we can have a little meet ?

 

[Redrocket]

I was hoping there would be more old fords here, as they are my main passion!
How far is north of Munich? I'm in Westpark in Munich...
Are there any ford meets, particularly old skool ones??

Thanks for the warm welcome guys!

Ich hatte gehofft, es würde mehr alte Furten hier, wie sie sind meine wichtigsten Leidenschaft!
Wie weit ist es nördlich von München? Ich bin im Westpark in München ...
Gibt es irgendwelche ford erfüllt, insbesondere diejenigen Old Skool?

Vielen Dank für den herzlichen Empfang!

Welcome to FordBoard.

To find some meetings just take a look in the Board "Termine/Treffen".

The European Ford Event in Landgraaf could be interesting, but to far away for you i think.

The Season 2009 is nearly over now, but some meetings for 2010 will be announced there bit by bit.

Hope to meet you on a meeting and have fun in FordBoard. :

"north" of munich is Unterschleissheim. You probably know it if you travel to the munich airport.
In (southern) germany old fords are rare. People like Bimmers and Audis more - and of course the VWs which I can't understand.

If you're specially interested in old cars, visit the "Oldtimertage Fürstenfeld" in Fürstenfeldbruck at the "Kloster Fürstenfeld" (old monastery) west of munich. You can travel there by the S-Bahn.

The link: http://www.classicmobil.de/Classic_Mobil/2.1_Oldtimertage_Furstenfeld.html

Ford Meets in the south of germany are very rare this year. There are some in 2010 which cover all types of ford cars.

Then there are special Capri meets - nearest is in Nuremberg - about 90-100 mls north of munich. They rotate with the Capri meet in Rosenheim (about 90 miles southeast of munich) every two years.

If you compare the UK and its Ford passion with germany you may be disappointed. The german brands BMW, Audi and esp. VW are more popular than Ford.
One of the biggest german Ford meets in 2010 will be in Vohenstrauß near the Czech Border - try www.hot-engines.de to find details.
