    WTF, German Car - No Beer Holder

    I've been working on replacing the starter on my E90 325. What a pain. Gotta remove the intake manifold. But the biggest problem is that there is no place under the hood where I can set my beer bottle. This seems like poor engineering, and is just un-German in my opinion.

    I pour mine into the windshield washer bottle, then use cheap child labor (aka one of the neighborhood kids) to pull the switch and feed it into my mouth via the disconnected washer nozzle hose.
