The Fast And The Furious

After finally getting my driver's licence (I succeeded on the 4th try!) I finally got my car. It's Skoda Felicia LXi, made in 1995.

As I don't understand cars and I don't ever want to understand cars, I used my friend's brother, who's a car mechanic, to select the car, check it and do basic maintenance. That's why any of your questions about this selection are totally pointless. From my perspective, the only important factors are that I bought a kick-ass Korean stereo (with USB and SD card playback) for it and the car's color scheme matches Albert's color scheme (click for large):

I already drove some 300 km in and around Prague, without killing anyone and without scratching my car (too much). I even drove 70 km on the highway, which should prepare me for next week's trip to Pilsen. I am trying to perfect my parallel parking skills using Grand Theft Auto and this thing. I'm probably gonna try some tuning soon.

Otherwise, everything in my life is the same (meaning "okay" or "great").

  6. To nic, Františku. Onanymové tady onanují nad litými koly. To je takový trend. Aniž by někdo vysvětlil, v čem spočívá jejich atraktivita (kromě vysoký ceny).

  7. What was the price for this neat car?

  8. These cars are for about 50.000 Czk, but for that price you can get another brand of the same age and about 1 class "upper". Very common reason for purchasing these cars is that replacement parts are cheap and available because there are so many of these cars on roads. Less people mention how easy it is to steal this tin-can (so it can be later used as a replacement parts source;-)).

  10. Hm, that´s why an english comments are funny here.
    I bet no one of english speakers knows who Tomas "jakoby" Baldynsky is, what kind of show is "Brave thumbs", or what kind of "Troska" is Zdenek...
