Okay, I'm still learning Deutsche, so don't be horrified by may mangling of the language - I'm not very good at it... thank the gods for English to German dictionaries to help me with the vocabulary.

Was ist die Pferdestarken Ausgabe aus dem Air Intake System? Ist es aus das Cooper oder Cooper S? Was ist die Kursdifferenz zwischen der Euro-dollar und der Dollar Amerikanisch? Wie veil macht es der Versand aus Deutschland auf Amerika? Bitte schon!

Yes, I do. But, as you probably know, just like CPUs, you can't compare bus mHz vs. bus mHz. There are too many mitigating factors. Throughput is the goal. It's Apples and oranges (pun intended).

hi SarcuxKSU,

first your german is not so bad as you think. i would like to answer your question in german, but i dont... :smile:

PS = HP (horse powers) or BHP

the air intake system is only for mini cooper and mini one.

use a currency conversion like www.xe.com/ucc/ to check out, where the euro is.

shipping to the usa:

til 1 kg = 26 Euro
til 5 kg = 35 Euro
til 10 kg = 47 Euro

I had earlier said that this website didn't work for Macs- wrong, sorry. It works fine, you have to let the cursor sit on the direction arrows and the product pics scroll automatically. Try to click to advance the pics, and they just go back to the first pic again- and I'm a slow learner, so I did that many times and then gave up I guess they're more patient in Europe- most of us probably like to be able to click ahead and scroll on command.

bad, bad, navigation on the site.

nothing turns people off more than making them wait to see your products...

works on my mac by the way, OS 9 in IE.

I agree 100% that the navigation is horrible. if you are planning on doing alot of business through this sight I would change it as soon as possible. It would be silly to lose business due to such a simple issue! The site looks nice, its just not functional.

There are some cool products I havent seen elsewhere.

for all the "we hate the navigation"

what would you like to change without destroy the design?
a scrollbar at the bottom of the middle frame will destroy it...

should it be scroll faster?
should the preview pics be smaller?

Im no pro, so take my advice with a grain of salt.
For a retail site, I like to be able to see all the products at a glance. The design of your sight dictates that you can only display 3 items at a time. Theres really nothing you can do short of a partial re-design to fix this. Speeding up the scrolling or shrinking the images wont help much.

Not only do you have to scroll to see things, but they are also split up in pages. If i see something I like and want to go back to it, I have to remember where in line it is and on what page.

Another small thing is that the arrows on the right are reversed to what people will intuitively press. E.G. the right arrow should scroll right.

Truth be told, people will buy things from you because you offer unique products at a good value and not because you have a pretty website. The easier you can make it for people to see and buy what you have to offer, the better you'll do.

Well said, I was just about to post the same. The site has "cool" & "designer" factors but I bailed after futzing with the scrolling linear catalog system. Looks like there might be some unique product, but needs to be quick and easy to locate.
