My Family's Car Life

Golf, Mercedes, Abarth

VW Golf

In our case, it's a matter of taste when compared to the wife's A3.Ride comfort is clearly the Golf's overwhelming winner.ACC accuracy is also better on the Golf for some reason.You can also carry your hobby road bike without removing the front and rear wheels.Shite.
However, for people like me who drive relatively high mileage Golfs, resale is not so important, but if you want to change within 3 years, I get the impression that it will be tough.(nave)

Each manufacturer has its own specialty category, after all. In the past, this class used to be a "what else is there besides golf? This class used to be a "what else is there besides golf?Mercedes A-Class, BMW 1 Siri, etc., etc.There are a lot of them.
If I were to buy one, I would choose the Golf without hesitation. The history of making this class of car is different. No other car can compare to it. In this class, it is a complete winner.(Kurumaniasan)

Test drive each car (Mercedes and Abarth)

Mercedes is looking pretty good these days! The old-fashioned old man's car taste is also kept to a minimum. Above all, the user experience is great. They have more goods than any other imported car maker, and many of them are useful in real life. The collaborating manufacturers have a great sense of style!
And the user magazine's "Mercedes MeI'm looking forward to all of the content, which is being edited by Mercedes Japan!(Mr. Wind Slope)

Abarth 595, did you enjoy it! We had an Abarth 595 at home for 5 years until recently. Competition, single clutch, two pedal. My wife bought it because she liked the shape.Record Monza exhaust note is pleasant.It is.
But what my wife really wanted was a cute little chink, so we recently switched to a chink. Although the shape is the same, they are completely different rides. This is a fun and relaxing ride.Ita cars have a great atmosphere. You must have one of these cars.Car.(cara)

I am also a FIAT 500 (Cinquecento) driver. I bought it 3 years ago because I fell in love with the design at first sight. 1.2 (4 cylinder NA) and Twin Air (2 cylinder turbo) were both tested and I preferred the 1.2, so I bought the 1.2 MT, which is not available in Japan, at a parallel import store.
I replaced the stock wipers because they were making a lot of chattering noise, and(Perhaps the current model has been addressed.)The battery died unexpectedly and needed to be replaced.
It is just right for my commuting route, and I never get bored because I can run the engine within the legal speed limit.It is going to be a long relationship.(Mr. Ishi)

car life

manual operation

Manual cars, indeed.Act early, early, early.The result will be a Therefore, theRoom to see in the distanceI'm sure it's nice, I'm sure it's nice. I know this has already been mentioned, but it is the most important thing I need to do now that I have started racing on circuits ^^; When you jump into a corner, pay attention to the movement of the cars around you and look out. The basics are the same for both on the street and on the circuit.
Also, basically, you have to be more careful downshifting than upshifting. When decelerating, slow down enough to release slightly and slowly just before the downshift clutch meat I don't think you'll get a gulp.
If you can do this, then you can then use the gas pedal after the brake to match the revs (after a light puff) so that you can clutch-meet. Heel toe is not at all necessary on public roads.(cara)

Reading your blog brings back the nervousness I felt when I drove my friend's MT car for the first time in 3 years since driving school, although I got used to it after a whole day of driving.
MT cars are more serious about safe drivingI think it's a good idea to have a license for those over 80 years old. As for accidents caused by elderly drivers, which is a hot topic these days, why don't we make MT limited license for drivers over 80 years old? If they miss, they will stall the car, and we can avoid the runaway accidents caused by mis-step like with AT cars. I think it's a good idea.(Indujunia).

How long will I be able to drive a car? I have been thinking about it a lot these days, including the question of how long I will be able to drive a car. I used to be a complete believer in MT cars, but when I test drove a VW Golf GTI (DSG) a few years ago, I was impressed by the evolution of AT cars. After that, I test drove Porsche's PDK and BMW's 8AT, etc., and although I came to want to buy one, I did not end up buying one.(Mr. Sou)

Porsche Truck Experience (PTE)

I actually participated in this PTE for the first time.PTEs, as reported, are experienced by Porsche principalsIt was a great experience and I am very glad that I was able to participate. If we have a chance to meet next time, please let me say hello.(Mack)

At my age, it's hard to find opportunities to grow, and it's easy to end up cheering for others, but it's interesting to me to grow, and I enjoy the discipline to do so! I was also at the other day'sI want to become a better Porsche driver because of PTE.I thought that I would be able to do that. And I'm ready to take PTE precisions! I am steadily preparing for it. I am steadily preparing for it. lol) When you set a milestone, it gives you a sense of urgency in your daily efforts.(Mr. Surge)

Porsche Sports Car Together Day

PSTD(Porsche Sportscartogether Day)I also participated in this event. I live in Shizuoka Prefecture and Fuji Speedway is only about an hour away, so as a Porsche enthusiast, I appreciate this event.
Being able to see the 992 up close and personal.Seeing the top professional drivers of Carrera Cup Asia on the pit walkI was very satisfied with the
While I was looking at the cars on general display, the kind owner told me about the maintenance costs of the Porsche, etc., and said, "I'm not a Porsche guy."Porsche owners are good people.I am full of fantasies of 996,997 first semester at the same time I think "I am so excited!" lol.(sea turtle)

I had already applied for the FSW event but had to give it up in tears due to the unfavorable weather and the fact that I had a 2 year old with me.When you have children, everything in your life tends to be centered around them.And I can't help it! but I am still frustrated. This article has made me feel better because it seems to speak for my feelings, even though I am in my husband's shoes. LOL!(Mr. Lanske)

I'm glad you had fun at Fuji Speedway with your family! It's hard to do anything with kids, isn't it? I always have to say, "Hey! Stop it! Enough! I yell at them.
But I still think that sharing all sorts of experiences and feelings as a family is a bonding experience, and it's good that we're all in on it! Please keep up the good work raising your children and blogging.(Gori)

Famous Road Map Project

I'm all for this project!I keep a touring map book handy too.Surprisingly, I often find that there are no other better roads listed, or details are confusing, or there are no stores recommended for more stops. Is it not possible for numerous people to write on one Google My Map? It would be nice to have a dynamic map that all car enthusiasts could write on.(Mr. Ichiban)

I myself suffered from the same problem as your husband.Explore the touring course on your own.We have some stock of courses in Kyushu (especially in Oita Prefecture), so we would like to cooperate with you. I am planning to go on a touring trip with my friends using my husband's Shikoku touring as a reference during our upcoming summer vacation. I would be very happy if there are more and more routes like this.(Obattey)

The other day I went from Kobe to Haga by 981 Boxstar. It is really a nice view from the Ibo River area to the campground ... . I also found a hole-in-the-wall parking lot (lol). I always refer to your driving courses. Please let me know if you find a good driving course.(Yukisuke)
