A 1988 Dacia Break is what I call "my first car".
Probably I will never sell this one. It belonged to my father, actually, the last car he owned. On such a car I learned the good sense of a DIY mechanic, and all this expertise will surely be of great help in managing with whatever car I will own from now on. I even passed my driving license exam driving this car!
My Dacia has a simple 4 cylinder 1397cc engine that yields a merely 65HP. Still, it fits excellent with the harsh winter days and the tough roads here in Romania.
Cheap to maintain, but a it requires a lot of time to be spend working on the engine and suspension.
Still, it's not the car that would steal a girl's heart while driving downtown. On the contrary :)
Not exactly a problem anymore, since "My other car is a BMW" (follow the link)
