Ignition

Welcome one, welcome all to a new blog about cars. This blog, though, has a small twist. This one is written by a person, who is an avid car enthusiast from Estonia, and one who loves to spot new cool cars in the streets. To bring some light to my own life, and to others, who would like to get any idea about what is what in the world and Estonia, I shall be reviewing new ‘supermodels’ of cars, and super-cars, and also try to find out if, when and at what cost they will arrive to Estonia. Lately, the car market in Estonia has become quite varied. Lamborghini and Brabus for example, have opened salons here. Also, next autumn, Premium Motors will be opening a new salon in Tallinn, where they will be selling one of my personal favourites – the Wiesmann, the car that inspired me to do this blog.
As I mentioned before, I hope to co-operate with car retailers to get the freshest information about new ‘exclusive’ cars.
The twist comes now: I will also be reviewing some cars that are not so cool, but have become legends in Eastern Europe. These are the Zhiguli or Lada, the Moskvich, the Volga, a luxury car, and other cars, which are fun until something falls off.
Links to co-operating retailers can be found on the right hand side, as soon as they confirm their willingness to be advertised for free.

About the author:
I am a 20-year-old media student, quite passionate about cars, love driving them, and when chance comes, love taking them to the limit, but no further. If I were filthy rich, I would have the Rolls Royce Phantom for going to the theatre, the Audi RS4 for everyday traffic, the Range Rover for trips in the country, a Wiesmann for sunny Sundays, and Jeremy Clarkson to go to the pub with. Since I’m a poor student, I have an Audi, which is probably one to survive the Armageddon along with cockroaches and Cher, and some good friends for the occasional beer. I love any sorts of car sports on TV, and on location (why oh why won’t the WTCC come to Estonia? Oh, yeah, we don’t have any suitable tracks..)

Anyway, enough about gibberish, I’m off to mail the retailers, and hope to see you here when new posts come up!

Yours, Karl

Sorry, I'm aiming for an international audience. Perhaps once when I have more time, I could make it bilingual..
