I wanted a new car only, choosing between Lancer 2.0, Fiesta 1.6, Colt 1.5, Getz 1.6 but finally took [b]Citroen C2[/b] as they made a unreal discount of 2 500 dollars because the car was 205 year production. I used to drive each of car listed. To tell the truth Lancer was the only I liked really but I failed to raise 1 50 dollars for it. Colt I didn’t like by the guise, Getz was not convenient to seat in as when I arranged in it the transmission rod occurred somewhere behind; as for Ford Fiesta, I was waiting for new generation but it didn’t come in time and the [b]Citroen C2[/b] came very well to time and place. Now I covered 27 000 km. First I will tell about lacks of [b]Citroen C2[/b]. When you get at the wheel it feels like you need to lift the steering down more. It also stands in the tachometer. Good there is a flash-light – a small lamp which turns on when revs are on max. The car is a bit noisy, hard-suspended – I like this though. It is still really hard to get 195/45/16 sized tires. There is a knob on one tire but I have to ride with it. Now as for advantages. Remarkably but I don’t fear to run 160-170 km/h in this small and light-weight car. I even managed to reach once 196 km/h speed. This car is very nimble, right for cityscape. Easy to park it. With acceleration the steering gets heavier, my car behaves stably in turns. The engine – 1.6 110 h/p, not few but I’d not mind more but the tuning costs 3 000 dollars – too much for me now. Well, that’s my car but I will surely change it sometime for more serious auto.

My car is Audi A3, for almost 1.5 year and the impressions just splendid. The only thing – its price at 35 000 euros (my car was bought from Germany) is not pleasing. The rest aspects of my Audi A3 – are just the song! Well soft suspension, very comfort one. Good sound proofing, the engine functions almost noiseless though. First at idling I was fearing the engine stopped. Lol. The controllability is on level, just perfect, AWD! The design is mostly the matter of taste in every case but the most interesting thing about my Audi A3 is the combination of non-sporty guise and the all 250 h/p. Still there are no 3.2 engine nameplates in the car. This helps me sometimes to put some guys in their places when they are eager to beat me with my car – nothing of the kind arises then. With the 6.9 sec jump to 100 km/h this is just a piece of cake to leave them behind even though given my transmission is hydro.

Well, my previous car was BMW E39 523, and E34 even earlier. My wife had BMW 118. Now let me say it briefly – I drive my current car BMW 3 320d for 3 months already, covered 4500 km. So I changed gas engine for diesel, manual transmission for hydro. Impressions: when I was running my car in I didn’t press accelerator properly, the car was riding plainly, getting revs sharply though, the maneuverability was superb. Still it was unusual for me to hear diesel growling and a bit more vibration at low revs than of gas BMW. After I finished the run in of my new 320d I was really adored. It was jumping into rush right from the lowest revs doing its best. In fact, diesel BMW was not a point worse than gas engine – only better. Comparing my previous E39 523 I gained in dynamics, turns stability and fuel expenditure at 9.3 liter per 100 km with fuel acceleration and climate control plus headlights on. The disadvantages – a bit less spacious inner compartment, there is no seat lower part adjustment feature. By the way, pleasant thing was that after 2000 km vibrations diminished. Finally I got a terrific dynamics, superb controllability. Anyway my 320d gets 5 points of 5! Good luck.

I love my cars - there are not so many - just over 40 but I want to reach 100. I doubt I'll manage to as I'm alive but Ill try to. Anyway I got a son who I'm going to hand the collection to. He is also a great connoisseur and fan of autos. He has his own car dealers company. Still he has 3 cars only. Now let me tell you my car story again, the third one I guess. It is on Jaguar XK8 Convertible 1996 issue, I ontained one in 1996. It was a great job as I remember, many collectioners and car fans desired to get this wonderful "boat". In fact, I was calling this car a British Ferrari, so strong it resemled Ferrari Maranello. Jaguar XK8 Convertible - coupe-convertible endowed with long wide spacious but still aerodynamics cool body, with sexy lines. I remember I deeply fell in love with its front appearance as the headlights and grate were terrific indeed, they are still. If you look at it now I'm sure you'll hardly be indifferent to this car - it is very beautiful! The engine of my Jaguar which is not only by the way, I have two more Jaguars, is V8 4.0 32 valve 284 h/p with supercharger and intercooler. The driveline is a traditional rear, I like it. But the transmission - 5 speed hydro is not really to my spirit, I prefer manual, this enables real pleasure. Well, this is a great job! P.S. my special passion are wheels type, look at it, they are great!

I'm glad to introduce some changes I made with my car. Since I posted here my car story I made some serious engine tuning, interior upgrade. First of all, I put new performance supercharger so now my Pontiac Grand AM with its 2.4 liter engine and previous 150 h/p got the increase in power up to 190 h/p! I'm impressed as this 40 h/p are very in handy, my car behavior became really more ardent and wild. Now I can compete to such things as Subaru Legacy, BMW 5-series, well I like it. I also have some improvements inside - new sound system from Pioneer with 2 subs, amp and 8 speakers. The upholstery I also changed as the default was not cool enough. Now it is leather, black leather. As for nearest future i want to install xenon headlights, spolier and body molding panels as crowning my car. Well, do you think I'm on the right way with my car?

Glad to introduce my second car - Rolls-Royce Corniche IV 6,7 V8, 2000 produced. That was a special story of getting this marvellous thing. I was on my trip to West and happened to visit an auto show. There was a Corniche...I fell in love with this car. It was not unbecomng expensive but rather. I was there three days, just was thinking whether Rolls-Royce Corniche was deserving the place in my autos collection. I was not a fan of cabrios eigher but there was some special charm about this american one, its front part with kind and expressive headlights were generating special impression on me. I'm a very acurate and careful about my cars' testimonials so there are some of my Corniche when I was getting it: 1) 5.2 meter length frame-based body, 2 doors, 4 seater. 2) Engine - the most essential thing when we are talking about any car. So it is V8 6750 cubuc cm displacement power unit giving out the 250 h/p and I guess 500 Nm of torque. Not so much for such a greatly displaced engine but beleive me - quite enough to make this vehicle get to 210 km/h. 3) Expensive wood and leather types, wool trimmed inside. Very cosy and special. So now my Rolls-Royce Corniche IV reached its 6 year anniversary. I've covered with it near 20 000 km. Not so much but how can I manage more if I have 45 cars now? Anyway I spend to much time with my lovely creatures, my children although I was not who assembled each one but still I consider them my children so everyone must be catered with attention. By the way, sorry but some of my cars can't be displaced here themselves as to security issues. But I do put identical pictures.:)

My current car is Subaru Impreza 2.0 2003 generation model. I'm absolutely happy with it - indeed outstanding vehicle. When I was about buying it last spring I was pondering over Honda Accord, Sbaru Legacy and Impreza WRX. Compared pricing, quality of trim, engine power, repair issues, maintenance availability I chose Subaru Impreza 2.0. It is not so expensive as WRX Sti model, sure? more powerful than Legacy. As for Honda Accord it was swept away quickly after I saw and tested Impreza. The first impression was like a hurricane riding. Impreza in reality is very mighty. I put out the money and now it's a year anniversary since I bought my wonderful panther, the same extent powerful, fleet and dexterous. In fact, you know Impreza 2.0 has 2 000cc engine, 227 h/p, 16 valve, supercharged engine. This would be ugly without its tuned 6 manual transmission and AWD. If you try my car once I swear you will hardly forget it. Steering with PAS is very cool. For the year I use my car it hasn't suffered any serious breakages. The only thing I should note is its hard sportive suspension - it was a bit unusual for me first. Now after I put there new special "alive" seats it's ok here! Maintenance is very complex for me s i don't even try to repair on my own. Its H4 opposite engine is vague at all.But the fuel expenditure is cool for highway - just 7 liter per 100km. Great rate, but in city cycle I spend 15 liters. well, this is my sport car, it's all about it I guess. I got no complaints about it after 1 year using.

I want to speak of my car - one of the best off-roader class vehicle in the world. It is Opel Frontiera 1998. One can say - it's out of date but I will never agree! ok, it's 1998 year generation, surely not the most powerful and dynamic off-roader as those Porsche Cayene, BMW X3 and X5, Nissan Patrol or even Lexus LP. They are cool, I agree but I want to feature out some thing, advantages of my Opel Frontiera. Still, they are! First of all. It is the guise of my car - have you seen such a pretty looking off-roader, only Lexus can be compared to it. If you look from side you willl see even more beautiful silhouette. Second. The engine of my Opel is diesel 2.2 4 cylinder turbo suercharged. Given the 5-gears manual and AWD with attachable fron wheels my frontiera slides via the road like a panther. It's 116 h/p are still not enough to accelerate quickly but the torque is really substantial. when you ride upwards in the mountain scape Opel behaves wonderfully. I adore its upwards riding. Thrid advantage of my car is its clearance which is so high to overpass any obstacle, pit and bumps. My car has friendly fuel consumption at just 10 liters on highway. The maintenance is easy to deal and spares are available and cheap as well. Just cool car. I'm not eager to sell my current car though it was produced in 1999. I cater it with best oil lubes, fuel, wash and clean. That's why my lovely car makes me feel special on the road. Bye.

Hello everybody! My car story is as follows. Our wonderful business company recently bought a special car for specials needs, it is Honda Civic 1.4 16M - sweet hatchback! It is red one with 4-cylinder inline 75 h/p 109 rpm torque engine - dynamic enough for an auto with 1 tonne weight. It has wonderful aerodynamics, 5-gears manual transmission and roomy trunk. well, i can say that previously I've always been the fan of Honda cars - they are reliable and fast, still hatbacks were not to my taste, I mean small ones. But.. this Honda civic overturned my notions about it. Its red color, unusual body panel adds (black) create an uncompromising sexy style of small but very cosy car! our new Honda Civic though is 1995 model generation still is in perfect technical conditions and guise. I have no car and my dream is BMW 520 or 525, 530 models. I drive sportive style though I have no license. Still this car seduces me day by day when I pass it by, it's rded, extremely sexy. By the way, it has a supercharger so the ride promises to be thrilling. As alleged this Honda Civic will serve for common company employees needs as well as for company general business purposes. I hope to take a cool drive in it some time ;) Well, that's story about not my still one wonderful car!

HI! My car story is as follows. I had many cars: Nissan, Toyota, Oldsmobile. I drive since 1988. Still my dream car always have been Lexus, I really fell in love with their cars when they appeared. And my top dream car was long Lexus SC model - outstanding model which is actual and competable even now. Lexus SC is a 1991 issued model and finally got it in 1998. Used bu crashed so that the engine was ruined heavily. I hhad to put it out. I had the chance to arrange there any engine and I decided a BMW one. It was 3.5 H8 engine boxer opposite type. It was a great deal to do that but I had a wonderful welder and mechanics and they managed! I got Lexus SC300 with 3.5 BMW engine - real hybrid.
