Hartge’s BMW ‘Hunter’

Thursday, December 27th, 2007

BMW X3 HunterHerbert Hartge is well known for his BMW vehicles that have been created with a mixture of the usual technology that is put into a vehicle and a little bit of motor sports technology. The fact that Hartge has experience as a race driver and a team manager gives him a slight edge over the competition.

The modified X3 renders his passion. As “HUNTER” it embodies a fine sleek manner of moving expertly and stylishly over rough and smooth. The necessary ground clearance of 23 cm is provided by longer spring/damper units, additional front spacer blocks and very good all-terrain-pneus (255/55 R 18) which are mounted on HARTGE’s “CLASSIC 2″ light alloy wheels.
