🚔7: My Audi A4 Is Looking For a New Home
Kaka's Audi A4
Hi everyone!
Hope y'all all had a great week!
I did, my tweets did :), and Autohaven did. Some big news will be coming soon, stay tuned.
Back to the topic. You might have already seen this as it went viral on the socials yesterday, but if you missed it, here's the latest scoop:
I wrote up a decent story of what my car has done for me from the day I purchased it - including how it saved me from two wild situations on the road, and people seemed to like the narration!
It's racked up to 2.8k likes and 245k views, becoming one of my best performing tweets ever. You can read the story here
So what's this all about?
Basically, I am selling my very first car! Yup, the one you all read about when you subscribed to this newsletter, it's looking for a new home.
In quick summary, it's a 2014 Audi A4 Allroad, Premium Plus trim, sleek and in perfect condition. Only driven it for 23k miles as I'm out of the country. My asking price is Ksh 2.8M ($21,700), negotiable.
I shared more about the features here, including why I am selling.
Just respond to this email if you re interested and we can talk!

Maybach’s Honeycomb Radiator
In 1900, Maybach introduced the honeycomb radiator, a breakthrough designed to improve engine cooling efficiency.
A honeycomb radiator is characterized by its unique design of closely spaced, hexagonal cells, which significantly enhances the surface area available for heat exchange.
This innovation emerged during a time of rapid technological progress and growing demands for reliable and efficient engine systems.
By addressing the limitations of earlier cooling technologies, the honeycomb radiator laid the groundwork for future advancements in automotive engineering.

The Wright Brothers’ Aluminium Block Engine
Orville Wright and Wilbur Wright, born on August 19, 1871, and April 16, 1867, respectively, were two of the most influential inventors of the 20th century.
Hailing from Dayton, Ohio, the Wright brothers shared a deep fascination with flight from a young age. Their interest in aeronautics led them to meticulously study the principles of flight and engage in extensive experimentation.
But interestingly, they never married at all, they dedicated themselves entirely to their aviation pursuits.

Léon Levavasseur's V8 Engine
Léon Levavasseur, born on January 8, 1863, in Paris, France, was a distinguished engineer and inventor known for his contributions to internal combustion engines.
Before making his mark with the V8 engine, Levavasseur trained as an engineer and worked on various mechanical projects. His early career included significant work in aviation, where he developed lightweight engines for early aircraft.
Notably, he was involved with the Antoinette aircraft, named after his wife Antoinette Levavasseur, and developed a series of reliable and innovative aircraft engines. His fascination with aviation and engineering led him to explore new possibilities in engine design.
Levavasseur’s most notable achievement was the development of the V8 engine, which he introduced in 1902. His innovative design marked a significant departure from traditional engine configurations, setting new standards for power and efficiency.
Levavasseur’s V8 engine would go on to influence various fields, including automotive and aviation engineering.
