    Yeah, we also had the Uno here in Europe. The 1.3 turbo was a great hot hatch.

    The original Panda.

    IFA. The iconic truck of Eastern Europe.

    MG ZT 260

    Chrysler/Simca/Talbot Horizon, COTY Europe '79.

    As Gabor already mentioned, bombs and artillery shells are often found in Budapest (fortunately, only a couple of infrastructural and industrial sites were bombed in Hungary, and most of those are located in/around the capital).

    I real asshat is the dirver of the silver Opel Zafira (the minivan). Not only does he get stuck in the intersection, but he won't move an inch to let the Beemer-driver through. We don't even know what the BMW driver said. It could be anything from "would you back up a little, please?" to "I'm gonna f-word murder your…

    I actually know this guy (I mean the driver) - Barna Kőváry, Hungarian rally legend. He's a friend of my brother's.

    I'm not a huge fan of Jap muscle, but I've always liked this matte black SX with its R33 taillights and Galant front.

    I had a chance to see the "SoloTürk" a couple of times. Great display!

    It's old, the quality is crap, but I'm addicted to this one.

    There is one drawback - one more thing that can break and needs fixing. I used to own a Citroen Xsara. Minde didn't have auto lights, but I heard users complain a lot on the local Citroen messageboard.

    Automatic headlights. When it's dark (or you need them on), you turn them on, end of story.

    One of my friends had a Pug 206 with such wipers. It probably had some kind of software glitch - when rain was getting lighter, and the wipers should have switched down a level, sometimes it would switch to turbo-mode and scratch the windshield like hell.

    Actually, that's Budapest, Hungary. Just 200 km from where I live. Frightening. I could meet this woman on the road anytime.
