Background
14th January 2006, Hammeltau Home
- Well, it seems it is time for me to go to my job. Some car advertisements need to be made and…i kinda have deadlines to meet.
- Can i go?
- No
- Please?
- No
Female part of family had some friction of their own
- MOOOM! I have nothing to wear.
- You have entire wardrobe filled with clothes.
- But none of it match my style for today
- We are merely going to have some neighbors paying us a visit.
- But mom, i want to look pretty.
Another child joined the chat
- Shame that clothing cant do anything about fact its you that would be wearing them
- Fuck you, Mat.
- Mom, dad said i could go with him today on job.
- Oh really?
HUBBY, MAT WANTS TO GO WITH YOU ON JOB - AWARE AND ANSWER IS NO
- DAAAD! I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR.
- NOT MY PROBLEM, TALK TO MOM.
- BUT DAAAD
Shouting would no longer be needed, as dad had moved towards her bedroom and closer to rest of family in said bedroom
- Best i can offer is bleached Kolondra shirt from 2000 that has residue of oil, paint, atleast two mysterious substances and is bleached as your mom once forgot to put it with proper clothes.
And no, i do not intend to suggest any pants of mine… for such clothes hanger as you, they might as well be akin to emergency parachute - Not funny, Mat. slapping her giggly brother
- You have this dress. mom shows the dress to girl
- I wore it on New Year celebration of 2005. My friend commented that it has yucky color.
- My honest comment on that is…Mat, dont slap your sister
- I will not slaps her anyway from now.
Mom excused herself
- Just LOOK at all of this chaos. Hubby, why are you walking around the house IN BOOTS?!?
- Was preparing for the job…until these two interrupted me.
- No, we didnt
- Yes, you did sister.
- NO
Mrs. Hammeltau decided to not deal with it any longer.
- ENOUGH! EVERYONE, OUT OF HOUSE!
- Someone is pissed off…
- I will need whole day to clean this MESS. Ofc im pissed.
- Happily will go with dad. Who knows what kind of cool cars we will be able to see.
- Likely red, blue and grey.
Mr. Hammeltau thought to say no for fourth time, but phone text message from coworker interrupted him
- Where are you man? Deadlines need to be met.
Also, that new girl janitor? Hot as hell, but about as stupid as it comes. She toppled shelf with oil in service workshop, now whole thing is a mess. She is silently crying since.
-
Would you mind if i brought my younglings to help with that?
-
Youngwhat? Oh, kids…i dunno…would be more useful than her anyway.
-
Expect us on the way
-
I guess three of us will be on our way.
-
THREE?!? I never said anything about going with you.
-
Well, i guess i may appreciate hanging out with my daughter as well. Might even swing by that pizza place on the way back.
-
Deal.
-
Just make sure to wear something you wouldnt mind geting dirty.
She decided to wear the dress, ignoring last sentence.
They packed into car and went on merry way, but not before mom slipped some clothes in similar state as shirt mentioned before…mom DID NOT ignore last sentence.
Same day, Kolondra Stockholm Service and Sales Center
One sad crouched female figure squatted in the snow. Did so in moment Hammeltau trio arrived, atleast.
- I do not recall installing a statue here
- Neither do i…
Mat decided to examine the statue, who raised her gaze towards him.
He got startled.
- Uhm, yeah…she does that sometimes.
- Why do i smell motor oil in the air?
- Well, sis, they also have fully equipped workshop. Must be that.
It wasnt just that.
Kids were groaning, but got to work. Girl did appreciate that big, old Kolondra shirt now and swapped in spare pair of work pants of crying janitor.
Statue also joined in, after cold overcame her sadness over her big mistake.
Dad left them at that and got to his job, joined by Mat after spill got under control. Remaining Hammeltau would be consoling trouble-maker janitor and making sure she isnt becoming a giant icicle.
- I will need to go on meeting, make sure to not touch anything until i come back. You are allowed to just play games.
Clear? - Clear
However, Mat will be more than happy to encounter some draft…and put his touch into it

Editor was having quite a bit of dilemma upon receiving new ad from computer of his Hammeltau colleague.
On one hand, he was aware that Mat has history of “writing” ads and wasnt exactly the expert. Also this clearly wasnt professional: game console? i made these pics with my dad?
Sounds like child wrote it…technically true as Mat is like…10?
On other hand, it IS rather funny. Some customers might be into that.
- Could be worse…atleast Mat now knows how to read. Approved.
**Meeting**
- Oh, it seems we have another ad ready to go. We shall look at it now.
- Who made it, boss? I thought all of us gathered here.
- Mat Hammeltau.
- Mat…i thought…oh.
There was fair bit of giggles upon encountering the ad.
- I had explicitly told him that he shall not interfere with business. Thought he will stay in internet browser.
- Likely expecting too much. Ad isnt bad, however.
- Agreed. It has that youthful energy
- No shit, Sherlock, it was written by 10y old.
Daughter sent an update on how she and her newfound friend are doing
- Dad, its me, just texting from her phone. I know you are probably doing something important, but we accidentally dropped nail polish in female bathroom. She is crying again.
- Not AGAIN
- Mr. Hammeltau, can you explain why are you looking at your phone? Also, whats the matter?
- My daughter and that janitor spilled nail polish in female bathroom.
- Thankfully we are not keeping entire shelf of the stuff there
everybody chuckled
- To return to ad…i guess its fine. Just dont expect him to be paid for that work.
- Yeah, i recall much worse.
- They will be paid for assistance of oily nature, however.
- Cant wait for daughter spending it on clothes she doesnt need
- Such are girls.
- Well Mat, you are now in evidence of “advertisement writers” in company. Ad for Saguaro Putnik City was funny enough to be accepted.
- …I…didnt expect that would actually send onwards. It was in Drafts…
- DAAAD, Pizza place is in next few kilometers. Im HUNGRY.
- Sure, i guess we all deserved it today…

In 2006, Waldersee released its second-generation Schäfer MPV. The largest and heaviest vehicle based on the firm’s transverse architecture, the Schäfer is a practicality-first premium experience, featuring leather seats on most trims, a satellite navigation suite, and an available CVT transmission. Engine selection starts at a very generous 2 liters - with top of the line being the low- and high-boost versions of a super turbocharged 2.3 liter stroker.
The bold, avant-garde styling is enhanced in the R appearance package, featuring quad-tipped exhaust and sport wheels (though they are still 4-lug). This can be combined with the Winterized package, which adds all-wheel-drive and a more thoroughly rust-protected chassis.
If you opt for all of the above - the satnav, leather, CVT, R package, and a low pressure blower (the high one is not available with AWD, CVT or many of the comfort goods, and forces you into front bucket seats versus the split bench) - you can run up your bill to AM$27,900. And it’ll be worth every penny, because this is a comapct MPV you don’t have to be ashamed of.

KSAC 1: A MULE FOR MOM
PART 1:INSTABINS
With the red Lada parked safely outside the house, the kids probably being at the second floor fighting over the PS2 or something, it was time to look through car brochures and reviews. Roland was already seated at the coffee table with the laptop and a bunch of brochures, but he looked a bit bothered.
“Getting a car nowadays isn’t that easy appearantly”, he sighed.
“Do you mean that there are too many choices?”, Annika answered.“Or too few?”
“It may sound strange”, he answered, “But a little bit of both. Some of the interesting alternatives actually have to go, we don’t even have a reason to look into them, unfortunately.”
“Do you have any example?”, Annika curiously asked.
“Oh, lots. We have the CBC Quest, for example…”, Roland said while waving with the brochure.
“Looks like it could be a roomy station wagon that would fit all we need to bring with us…”, Annika said.
“Yes, but they have a recall for being delivered with narrower rear tires than front, and appearantly the correct tires are on a backorder for months for some stupid reason, I feel that this car ownership would only start with trouble…”, Roland said and shook his head.
“And it is not the only car that would mean trouble, you said?”
“Yes I am far from finished. The importer of Bocconcino is in real trouble now. They have cheated emissions, delivered cars with the wrong tires, and to make things even worse the advertised price has turned out to be a scam when they have looked at actual prices at the dealerships.”, he continued, showing the Cross series brochure to Annika.
“Sounds like a bunch of scammers, no way we are buying a car from them!”, Annika said, mildly annoyed.
“Speaking of scammers…”, he said, pointing at the brochure for the Billy LaFam…
“…Billy is into a real scandal now where there have been instances of car bodies being built to a much lower standard than they were supposed to be.”
“OK, so if I crash into a reindeer the whole car will fall apart and I will be sitting in a snowdrift with only the steering wheel left, I guess?”, Annika answered with a laughter. “I don’t need any tin box like that, thank you.”
"Well, too early to say how that affects the cars, but I wouldn’t count on them at all until they have proved that they have bumped up their standards again. Also…, he said, “I had kind of high hopes for the Bullwark Buccaneer, but they failed type approval for that in 2005 and won’t be bringing any of them in. Appearantly too dirty emissions were the reason.”
“A shame”, Annika said, “It kind of looks like an interesting car.”
"Yes, and then we have the cars that fooled me for real, the Prisa Susurro and the Indra IX50, they were apperantly just concept cars that has not even went into production yet!
KEEP IN MIND THAT THE SALT HERE IS PURELY FOR FLAVOR TEXT AND DOES NOT ACTUALLY SAY IF THE CARS WERE GOOD OR BAD!
OOC:What went wrong?
@AKA_NOBUDDY - The CBC Quest had 10 mm narrower rear tires than up front, I guess it’s a mistake you forgot to double check so kind of sad to bin just for that…oh well.
@GordonFreeman - The Bocconcino Cross series has too dirty emissions, staggered tires and breaks the budget.
@Ultimate_Billy - The Billy LaFam is built on a Legacy body which is a mod pack I have deleted since I ended up never using it anyway, hence it was stated in the rules that it was not allowed.
@Kijoou - The Bullwark Buccaneer fails emissions and the engine is one year too old.
@TOPGEAR20200 , @mac.1906 - Sent in Al Rilma cars to a challenge held in the Ellisbury version.

Sorry, but it looks like you made an error: My tech pool costs are within the challenge limits:
Mine are 24.3M+19.2M=43.5M
Unless you meant including Lab costs, but considering you specifically mentioned “techpool costs” and nothing about “lab costs” or “total costs” I only looked at the techpool costs.
If you meant the “total costs”, can I suggest to give us some time to edit the entry to fit within that specific ruleset instead of the original rules?
Well, you do have a point that I left out an important part there. For people that has been here for a while, it is universally known that total costs always are what counts in challenges, hence it is easy to forget to mention that it is about total costs. But you should be able to enter a challenge even as a beginner, you shouldn’t have to know unwritten rules.
So, yes, I do an unusual exception, I give you and @IJN_Yamato a chance to correct your entries since this could actually be seen as a fault from my side. However, the rest of the instabins are still instabins since the techpool bit is the only confusing one AFAIK.

Honestly this went far better than I had ever hoped, altough about emissions I thought I had managed to get WES 11. Also, I’m pretty sure I haven’t looked in the right place to check the cost of the car, where is the actual price?
You can find the price of your car, as well as a lot of your other stats, in the statistics tab in the car designer on the detailed stats tab. Occasionally this might not update properly, so exiting the car designer then going back into it and making sure it hasn’t changed is a good idea.
As far as emissions goes, it can be a little harder to find exactly what you are getting. As you may notice, for the example above it is saying WES 0 on the detailed stats tab. This is currently bugged. But clicking the emissions graph icon on the top will show you what WES rating you are getting.
But say you are failing to meet a certain WES standard but aren’t sure as of why, the emissions graph tab in the engine designer is going to give you the most information.
If the bars in the graph are red that is what is causing you to fail. Yellow means you are just barely failing and dark green means barely passing. I hope this all helps you with future challenges.

I didn’t know it was a legacy body, my bad!
