    Probably the best car in the world....... NOT....!

    Thought you guys might like to see what I had to drive round in whilst my S2 was off the road awaiting a new rad..... (thank goodness its back now)

    This is a 1997 Dacia 1310 1.6 litres of throbbing muscle, well almost...
    The film is to show how good it really is...

    Iain... try and rent one of these little beauties...!





    Honda CBR 1100XX Blackbird Turbo....undergoing major changes.....
    S2 Coupe... bit easier off the line...
    '03 ZX12-R daily hack.... lots of nice bolt ons...

              Wow
              That car really is terrible!! At least it means not risking denting the S2 in the ice and snow though?

                I like the go faster roof rack and seat covers, in it's defence though the romanians know how to fix them and they are built to deal with the roads, so i am told by my wife who has taken no end of p*ss taking over the dacia brand from me.

                  I bet you appreciate the S2 after driving that POS.

                      At least you can try a few Scandinavian flicks in that without worrying too much about ending up on your roof!

                        I gotta be honest, I am so pleased to be driving the S2 again...
                        When I borrowed this one, I had to spend 2 hours on it to get the lights and indicators working.... But as Iain says, they are easy to fix and so many of them around anyone can sell you the right part...also, theres a bit of space round the engine......!
                        Damn, changing the hoses on this would be sooooooooo easy...!
                        Dacia Logan eh Iain..... you posh b*****d....!
                        Scandinavian flicks....... yes, but I reckon the tyres would come off...!
                        Hope you lot feel better about proper cars you have at home...I had this for a month...!

                              Make me an offer....

                              But, be careful, it might come with a free car...!!!!



                              PeteRR.... fun, kind of, but only because I knew it wasn't mine, thinking how my friends in the UK would laugh... but it did get us around for a whole month, and didnt let us down... I will not be in a rush to borrow it again though...!
