Cars
One of the biggest things in my life is driving, cars, and everything about it.
The story began when I was about 15 and my father asked me if I felt like learning how to
drive. He first asked me 'if I gave you a car, could you drive?' I said 'maybe' and I
tried... he was laughing because I thought it was so easy to just sit and go ahead. That
day he taught me how to start moving with shift-stick, i.e. manual transmission. So,
another reason of this page is to thank my father for everything he'd done for me not just
driving.
This list of the cars you see above isn't a joke, these are all the cars I have
tested, except Russian and Ukrainian cars (which I did not want to include here). How come
you'll ask... well when I was learning how to drive, which took me about a few weeks, my
father got a part time job in Ukraine-Italian company which was bringing second-hand cars
from Italy to Ukraine. And most of those cars were driven by me. Actually, I was driving
them the way they drive them in Italian movies :) I couldn't drive my own car like that
because I would feel bad about my car. And those cars were handled like this by everyone
in the firm in the first place; so, I didn't do anything wrong. I still remember that
feeling when I was stepping on the acceleration in Volvo, and my hands were
"shaking," remember that was in early 90s, we didn't have a lot of cool cars in
kraine, so any foreign made car was something new and cool no matter how old it is.
