As a recommendation from ClaraMy I will try to update my blog every day, but actually she forgot to specify every day of the week, month or year ?! .

• Master’s degree with strong academic results
• Excellent analytical and quantitative skills

After I encountered some difficulties to spend my first scholarship I’ve decided to check for some student discounts at MPH - an exhibition with interesting cars and interesting prices in Nacka Strand.

Finally I’ve received my scholarship from our lovely European Union and is time to do some shopping.
Maybe I’ll follow Gergelly’s way of spending the first scholarship For this reason I’ve decide to visit the closest car showroom, which was Bentley Stockholm - a nice showroom full of German cars,ohh sorry British .

Each year I’m saying that it doesn’t deserve those 60CZK (this is the discounted price for poor students) for visiting Autoshow Praha. Anyway I am going again and again. Friday, is the perfect day to visit the exhibition, because everybody is studying/working. Previous years were really borring, even the Autosalon from Chisinau was richer.
Those 60CZK am deviding in this way : 10CZK for the ARTEGA GT, 15 CZK for MOSLER GT900S, 15 CZK for SPYKER C8 and 20 CZK for Aston Martin Vanquis S!!!
Hopefully Škoda will bring some maquette of the new Skoda Superb which is less than six months away from it’s launch. Anyway I can get a good idea of what the final version will look like. Continuare »

I am very agree with Hassanal Bolkiah (Sultan of Brunei) that is very uncomfortable to go shopping to Lidl or Penny Market (I am convinced these 2 shops are mostly prefered by his Majesty) in a sportcoupe or in a cabriolet (doesn’t matter which model, because anyway all of them together can take maximum 2 patatoes, 1 cucumber, half of banana and some sugar).
That’s why I do respect his idea of transforming premium cars in what he desires: ferraris in people cariers, bentleys into tractors etc. Don’t be surprised that soon or late to see him in a Rolls pick-up. It means aftewards LADA (VAZ) will be the only proper car maker of real limousines and tankars .

I first heard about Brunei and their enormous wealth few years ago when the circuit from this country was included in Formula 1. Since then I’ve allways been on the lookout for pics of the Sultan’s (brother’s/son’s) massive car collection. The collection is stored among five aircraft hangars near the palace and is closely guarded.

On 28th of September all sports cars from Česká republika were supposed to get together at Autodrom in Most in order to create the biggest reunion of sports cars in the same country mentioned before.
This year because of the lack of financial resources the owners of such cars : Aston Martin V8 Vantage, BMW Z8, Bugatti Veyron, Caterham CSR260, Dodge Viper, Ford GT, K1 Attack, Maserati MC12, Mercedes Benz SLR, Pagani Zonda and Porsche Carrera GT - were not able to find enought resources to buy some tyres for the rainy wather and again we hope that maybe next year Mr. Radim Passer will be so kind to show his ecological Bugatti Veyron .
Anyway there were some cool wet cars like: Ultima GTR , Wiesmann GT , the new ZA BAKKY , S1 AKUNA and Mansory Continental GT.
Some photos here and from the circuit here.

This weekend F1 drivers are resting a little bit, so we decided instead of them to try out the racing atmosphere on the longest kart track in Europe. There are more than 30 curves and average speed reaches as much as 50kmph. Track is situated in a glasshouse somewhere in Radotin, which provides great light conditions and even is air-conditioned.
Tomorrow I will put some photos here.

The biggest event concerning the meeting of the owners, adjustors and fans of tuning cars in Czech republic and Central Europe has been changed to the “The biggest international event concerning how many beers Czechs and their neighbours can drink during one weekend”. In comparison with last years there was nothing to see except bottles of beer, beer and of course beer and some nice people.
