It does not matter if you have a job, or you are at the workplace, when it comes to cars, all we can say is that we are just some potential customers, potential “victims” of the marketing departments.

I have to admit that somewhere in the subcutaneous level, we all feel good when we take a drive test with a well equipped model. With other ideas, those behind the brand are trying to conquer us discreetly. Therefore, it rarely happens to reach into the hands of the press some fleet models, only with standard devices, so the automotive journalist is finally a potential customer and must be “courted” by the brand. I was slightly surprised to take a testdrive with a Ford Focus Sedan 1.6 Ti-VCT, Trend equipped. In terms of design, the new Focus has not convinced me, but only subjectively. However, the sedan has a more consistent picture of the three body versions currently available for Focus, so: it is fluid and the flaring sides of the body line, naturally continues to the rear, the massive back of the five-door version now dissolve a stylish boot line and viewed from the side, the sedan brings more with the five-door Ford Mondeo. The interior seems austere at first sight. If the image of the leaf lets presenting the car to the dealer, after this you see inside the basic equipment like the magic has been evaporated. Materials on the dashboard are pleasant, with nice texture, so at this chapter, these are at the top of the class, but obviously other countries are meeting the plastic material.

Dacia Sport is brought back to life by a young designer, which gives the car an air of a true muscle car, but also a contemporary one.

Since from the beginning, we said that the Dacia MC Concept is the car designed and dreamed by Cyprian Andrus, a young Romanian designer passionate of all kind of cars. Precisely for this reason is good thatmanaged to combine so well the past influences the present, making a conceptthat, at least in digital plan can stand with any authentic American muscle car. Comparison is not accidental because the talented designer took inspiration from the famous hot rods, such as the Lee Iacocca Ford Mustang, the Dodge Challenger 2009, or the Chevrolet Camaro 2010.

As it can be seen only from this article, the car with the current models that have the Dacia logo are the ”beer opener”. Moreover, the probability that Dacia will make such a model in the future can be compared with Alain Prost’s chances to return to a Formula 1 race into a Dacia car. So, we should admire the artist’s work first and second we must not plunge into the utopia and assumptions.
For the work to be perfect, Cyprian sees this model powered by a large V8 engine, mated to a manual gearbox with six reports. We all hypothetical would suggest the 3.0 liter V6 and 255 hp, the former Renault Clio V6, because it belongs to the Renault family and thus would meet the French tradition of using the old Dacia’s engines.
