volvo 780

kurtdaniel — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 09:11:26 +0200

This is an an absolutely fine motorcar.

The parts are a little expensive since this model is so rare. Good thing i know of a reliable online auto parts store. They surely have better offer.

So be sure to perform all the maintenance requirements.

This car is good.

Although, most wear and tear parts have gone bad very soon. But no wonder, it was not an oem part. Now i have to install oem parts from trusted online stores, so that i can be assured of its good quality.

A great, timeless classic.

My friend has one and we made it run and look like new.

We didnt have problems while reconditiong because most parts are easily obtained.

jaguar xj

kurtdaniel — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:46:33 +0200

This car is very stylish and luxurious looking, but i doubt its reliability.

I heard many complains about this car, although im not sure if its all true.

Water leakage into the trunk is one common issue.

Well heres what i discovered. A number of toyota parts can be used to replace faulty or old Jaguar. This may help jaguar owners to have more option when repairing their car.

suzuki esteem

kurtdaniel — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:35:43 +0200

A good small car

My brother has one.

Its so fuel effecient and fun to drive especially around the city streets.

But its interior is somehow not too tough, there some kind of fading and breakage of plastic interior parts.

But its good mechanically.

chevrolet blazer

kurtdaniel — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:23:29 +0200

My friend has one.

Its a strong but cheap SUV. Its quite decent but not the best for me. But it doesn't matter, as long as its cheap.

Just be careful of rust.

In my friends unit, i hear some shock absorber noises which later was recommended by a mechanic to be changed.

chevrolet lumina

kurtdaniel — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:13:02 +0200

My friend has one.

Its a very dependable machine. And a high performance bargain.

Only a few problem with the brakes that were not so responsive. But with a repair manual these things are easy to be fixed.

mazda 323 lx

kurtdaniel — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:02:48 +0200

This car is practical and economical.

My friend owns one.

He doesnt have much problem at all. except a small water leak wich turned out to be a blown radiator hose.

This is a good if you dont care most likely about luxurious looks and great designs.

volkswagen corrado

kurtdaniel — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 07:51:05 +0200

My friend owns one.

I like the speed that it shows on highway. Great acceleration too.

But i think its not so reliable at all.

At six months of ownership, a high pressure power steering hose was developed and it needs to be replaced.

I guess this would be a good car, if its well taken care of.

toyota camry

kurtdaniel — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 07:33:11 +0200

My friend has one.

Its a good car, but it does have problems

A month after the warranty have expired we return it to the dealer for inspection. After inspection, they told us that the oxygen sensor is bad and needs to be replaced. But we have been there three times while it was still in warranty. And they dont get any problem with it.

Nissan Nismo

- I appreciate nissan for this move into performance and style upgrades.

“””Nissan has added a new, fifth model to the 350Z coupe line with the NISMO 350Z. Featuring a host of unique equipment—including a wild body kit and stiffer suspension—the NISMO Z goes on sale at Nissan dealers nationwide in July as a late-2007 model.”””

Lamborghini Concept S

kurtdaniel — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 07:53:41 +0100

- If you plan on getting that car, here is a piece of advice, DREAM ON!

“””The Lamborghini Concept S is a concept car designed by Luc Donckerwolke, the head of Lamborghini design, using the Lamborghini Gallardo as a basis. Shown at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show. It was intended to be a modern interpretation of the single-seat roadsters of the past. Utilizing a 'saute-vent' (French for 'change wind') instead of a traditional windscreen, and dividing the interior into two distinct compartments by continuing the bodywork between the seats, which also serves as an air inlet feeding the mid-mounted 5L V10 engine, gives the car a distinctly futuristic look.”””

Mazda Carol

kurtdaniel — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 07:52:02 +0100

- This project is incredibly cool!

“”””The R360 was replaced in 1961 with the Mazda P360 Carol, the company's first 4-passenger car. It was larger than the Mazda R360 it replaced, running on a 193 cm wheelbase for a total length of 298 cm. It used a rear-mounted water-cooled 358 cc 4-cylinder OHV engine, which is one of the smallest 4-cylinder automobile engines in history (only Honda's 356 cc DOHC alloy 4-cylinder unit used in the T360 truck, was smaller).

VW Beetle 10

kurtdaniel — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 07:50:33 +0100

- Freeze me now and get me to that future!

“””Based upon the affordable New Beetle Miami, the New Beetle Anniversary Edition offers a visually enhanced package, from the exclusive body colour and stripe treatment, to the 17” Versus alloy wheels and front fog lights. While the feature rich interior is dominated by the striking leatherette upholstery in a unique black and white theme and also includes front sports seats and cruise control. This exclusive version has a particular visual appearance with an exclusive Campanella white body colour contrasted by a black roof and door mirror housings. The look is completed with the distinguishing exterior stripe package.”””

Saab 9-1

kurtdaniel — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 07:48:55 +0100

- Interesting. The lower bumper is to close to a ferarri though.

“””The Saab 9-1 is a compact car expected to be introduced by Saab Automobile for the 2009 model year.[1] It will perhaps share its Delta architecture with the Opel Astra, or possibly using a stretched Corsa or using a newly developed platform. Saab Managing Director Jan-Åke Jonsson said that the 9-1 will be built at Saab's home plant in Trollhättan and will be built on the same platform as the next-generation Opel Astra. Saab intends to build the vehicle at their Trollhättan factory, but also other European GM factories have been mentioned. It will be the successor of the Saab 90 and Saab 99 and be the company's entry-level car as the 9-3 grows larger. It's intended to compete with BMW 1 Series, Volvo C30, Mercedes-Benz B-Class, Acura CSX and Audi A3 - hatchback versions may be followed by sedan and station wagons, which may also appear for the 1 Series. A cabriolet might also be possible, but then possibly under the name Saab Sonett IV.””””
