My BMW needs a new engine as a piston apparently punched through the base of the engine. Iâve been looking around for a second-hand one but am getting confused by engine model nos. My car is a V reg (1999) 318i SE E36 saloon shape. I canât work out if my engine is M44 or M43 (or something else!).
Because Antarctica is a polar region, there is no precipitation, it has no lakes or rivers and is in fact the driest continent. Average temperatures in the Antarctic interior get down to -70 degrees Celsius during the winter months and -35 degrees Celsius in the warmer months. The coastal temperatures are much warmer with a range of -15 to -32 Celsius in Winter and -5 to +5 Celsius in Summer. The interior of Antarctica is considered the world's driest desert because the extreme cold freezes water vapour out of the air.
Satellite measurements of the surface temperature of Antarctica, taken between 1982 and 2013, found a coldest temperature of â93.2 Â°C (â135.8 Â°F) on 10 August 2010, at Although this is not comparable to an air temperature, it is believed that the air temperature at this location would have been lower than the official record lowest air temperature of â89.2 Â°C (â128.6 Â°F).
