That's good! Glad to hear you're finally starting to get the grip on the art of driving . I think I'm gonna be driving my car again tomorrow, just gotta go to the country side and pick it up from there. My parents took it when they left, couple of days ago. It's a good thing I don't need it all too often, since I don't need to drive to work. My home is my office, as well.
Anyway, I will start saving some cash to buy my own car as soon as possible. Until then, I'll have to share the current family car with my folks.

It's louwman & Parquijan1666 wrote: Importer is Louman & Parqui, use it on google to find the Supra
That's where my brother works
He drove his Toyota Corolla to L&P for the last time this morning, and I drove the car back from L&P to the post office, and then home.
It's officially my car now.
My brother got a Toyota Auris Full Hybrid, he got it today, which is the official 'release' date of the Auris full hybrid as well.
it's in the showrooms starting today, he got his car outside of the showroom though, benefit of working for the main importer I guess.
@sjohie: I didn't know that the Solenza model has never been sold to your country. Maybe, not many such vehicles were shipped to other places around the world. In Romania, you can see loads of them roaming the streets, a lot of people usually have a good opinion about these cars, myself included.
Logans aren't bad, either, I have to agree and I see it are selling like hot cakes ( in Russia, for example ). As you have mentioned, you do get quite a lot of bang for your buck when buying a Dacia. I'm not actually a die hard fan of this company ( neither a patriot ), but I have to admit they have managed to strike a little gold with models such as the Logan or even with the newer Duster.

How's the Auris? my dad wants i if it uses less fuel than his car right now (1:17)
Dont come with books, they lie
I didn't pay too much attention to the 1:-- figures but I do know that it gets a better average than 1:17 even at highway speeds.
And driving on battery alone (50km/h or slower), it showed an impressive 1:99
The battery powered engine is helping the petrol engine often which keeps the fuel usage low.
Also, when you let go of the acceleration pedal completely, the petrol engine also cuts off immediately.
So there's no idle running time on the petrol engine.

But he still averages around 1:19.5
So it is better than your dads current car, and depending on his driving style that number could be even better.
