Τα καλύτερα αυτοκίνητα και αυτοκίνητα σταθμοί του παρελθόντος...
The BEST (Non-Exotic) Cαrs of all time!

Citroen DS (Deesse=Goddess)

The Most Beautiful Car EVER made, with technology 30 years ahead of it's time when the first ID came out in 1955. It was (then!) Front Wheel Drive,& had Self Leveling Hydropneumatic Suspension, Magic Carpet Ride, Power Steering, Superb Brakes, Outstanding Grip, Air Drag Coefficient Cd0.35(!!!), HUGE Passenger Space, Turning Headlamps, and capability to drive on 3 Wheels!

Citroen 2CV:

Comfortable, Roomy, Economical, with Superb Ride and grip, and a very Cute Shape. Slow, Noisy but smooth 2 cylinder Boxer Engine, and Very Unsafe in an Accident though!!!!!

Citroen GS and GSA:

Car of the Year in 1971. Another Citroen with Great Shape, Cd0.34 (Later GSX3 Model had Cd0.31), Hydropneumatic suspension giving superb ride and grip, Unmatched Active Safety, capability to drive on 3 wheels, smooth (but underpowered) air-cooled Boxer Engines. It was Way ahead of it's time. Had extremely Heavy Steering though (But Extremely Precise....only bettered by the Mini perhaps)

Citroen CX:

Car of the Year in 1975. The Last REAL Citroen. Great Shape, Outstanding Aerodynamic Efficiency, Big Space (Especially the Stretched Prestige Version Pictured Here), Limo Ride, Exemplary Active Safety, could drive on 3 wheels, Super Quick Steering with 1.5 turns lock-to-lock (From the Citroen SM), DS's worthy successor!

Alfa Romeo Alfasud:

The Alfasud was the first (and maybe best) Front Wheel Drive Alfa, with Smooth Boxer Engines, Amazing Handling with almost ZERO understeer, Excellent Steering and Brakes for it's time. In TI Form (Pictured on the Right) puts many GTi's to shame even by today's Standards on a twisty road. If Only these cars didn't Rust!!!

NSU Ro80:

Car of the Year in 1968. Front Wheel Drive with Twin Rotor Wankel Engine, clutchless semi automatic Gearbox, Amazing Shape, Cd0.34, and Great Active Safety for it's time. Engine Life was About 25000km before major overhaul. This Car Actually Killed NSU from warranty Claims.. Shame.

Morris MINI:

Front Wheel Drive Go-Kart, with Marvelous Steering (Maybe the best EVER) and Handling, Superb Use of Space for it's Size. Horrible brakes (especially models with Front Drums), nasty Gearchange, and bad driving position.

Mazda 323 (1981 Model):

The Japanese got Serious! Maybe the First Japanese Saloon Car that HANDLED, and probably the first Car in the World with Passive Rear Wheel Steering (TTL Rear Suspension). 1.5GT with twin double choke carburetors version was an Alfasud 1.5TI Competitor. I used to own a 323 1.5GT with KYB Suspension, Michelin 185/60HR14 MXV2 Tyres, Modified rear suspension settings (Slight toe in instead of the factory set parallel setting), Raised compression ratio to 12:1, straight through exhaust system, and it was fast and handled like a dream.
Negative Points include heavy (But very Precise) Steering, and Underpowered Front Biased Brakes that Faded Easily.

VW Golf MK 1:

Quantum Leap for VW!!! Lightweight, Fast (In GTI Form), with Great Handling. The Car that Started the GTi Revolution, and 3 Wheeled Cornering! Shame about the Poor Brakes though.

LOTUS ELAN (Original):

The One on the Right! Classic Recipe for endless smile on the driver's face!. Lightweight Fibreglass Body, X-Shaped Chassis, 4 wheel Independent Double Wishbone Suspension, Front Engine-Rear Wheel Drive, 16Valve DOHC Engine. A Dream!

MAZDA MX-5 1.6i Original

The One on the Left in the Elan pic!. Great Idea and Mazda's Most Bold Move into Real Sportscars. Based on the Idea of the Original Lotus Elan, with similar Front Engine, Rear wheel Drive, Four Wheel double Wishbone Suspension Layout, AMAZING Looks, 50:50 weight distribution, Super Quick Steering 2.5 turns lock-to-lock, Very Rigid Body (for a convertible), Knife in Butter Gearchange, a Rasping Exhaust and Engine note, and ALL the Necessary Ingredients to Satisfy the Most Demanding Driver. Chosen by Autocar & Motor in 1990 as the BEST HANDLING CAR IN THE WORLD.
Underpowered though. If Only Mazda Fitted a High Performance version of the V6 2.0 24v engine of the XEDOS 6 or at least the 1.8 24v V6 of the MX-3 (140Bhp), it would have been in a league of its own!
New model might be improved in most aspects, but I think it's really UGLY and hasn't got the Elegancy and Cute shape of the original.

Επιτέλους το 206 μου άρχισε να γίνεται αυτοκίνητο Twisted evil

Δεν παίζει Χάρη...

Εγώ είχα ζητήσει να προσθέσουν και άλλες επιλογές στις "Επιτρεπόμενες HTML εντολές" αλλά μάλλον έπεσε άκυρο... Για την ακρίβεια δεν απάντησε κανείς Rolling eyes

Τι μου θυμισες τωρα... Το πρωτο αυτοκινητο που οδηγησα σε ηλικια 10χρονων, μια ασπρη Citroen GSA X3 (1300 μοτερ, με δεξι καθρεφτη και μανιβελε ηλιοροφη), απο τις λιγες που κυκλοφορησαν στην Ελλαδα!!! Το ειχε φερει ο πατηρ το '85 απο Ιταλια, γιατι στην Ελλαδα δεν ηταν καν διαθεσιμο ως ειδικη παραγγελια!!! Απιστευτο αυτοκινητο, πολυ ανετο, καλο grip, αλλα επαιρνε μεγαλες κλισεις και ειχε και υδραυλικο τιμονι!!! Επισης, πολυ περιεργο εσωτερικο, με τους "δορυφορους" δεξια και αριστερα απο το τιμονι να συγκεντρωνουν ολους σχεδον τους διακοπτες, ταμπλω ενδειξεων με στροφομετρο και ταχυμετρο σε κυλινδρικο στυλ, το ραδιοφωνο στο μεσο των εμπρος καθισματων και χειροφρενο που ηταν στο μεσο του ταμπλω, κατω απο τους κεντρικους αεραγωγους (το τραβουσες προς τα εξω)!!! Το αυτοκινητο τα τελευταια 10 χρονια το οδηγουσε ο παππους μεχρι που το αποσυραμε το Δεκεμβρη που περασε!!!
