If your mechanic doesn't have a story about crossing plug wires, he either hasn't been a mechanic for very long, or lies out his ass

The 993 GT/GT2 is the hottest 911 ever. Well... right next to the original 911 RS :)
I concur.  ;)

Added A5 Sportback to my list. The car was equipped with the 7-speed adaptive DSG. I was surprised first how jumpy the car was and how difficult it was to control the pedal to correct amount.
After the drive the dealer told me that is adaptive system and because it was a test drive car it's jumpy because everybody tortures the car while test driving.

Other than that the car was very nice. The exhaust noise is better than in my car, but the back seat space is too small to really work as a family car. I couldn't sit straight at the back because my head was touching the top.

Tested the new S4 today with the 3.0 TSI engine. I liked the car quite a lot. It was very quiet with a nice low rumble at highway speed but there was plenty ofpower when needed. Higher rev sounds were not as nice but tolerable. :D
Would be nice to try the car the on dry tarmac to really feel the power and torque. Now the ESP stepped in very easily because it was very slippery.

Drove a Chevy Aveo in a recent trip to Malta... such a rubish car LOL! :roll:

My girlfriend's Citroën C3 is not as bad as I expected, though it's the Exclusive version with every option avaiable included as standard.

I had to move this 599 GTB for a client, I wish it was for more than only a few meters to put it right for a few shots :( But I still liked it anyway, it had an aftermarket exhaust, great sound!

That's not really driving but much more than majority of people will ever get. I have never even sat in any kind of Ferrari.

Looks so bad when it warns there with red text about this thread not being posted in 4 months so I have to post :mrgreen:
Tested the Audi A1 with the 1.4TFSI last week. Excellent little car with very nice looks. If I only had the money for a 2nd car :) My wife wants a Mini though and it is actually better looking IMO. Maybe even a better drive :?
It was a blast to drive a FWD car for a change and have some wheelspinning here and there.
