Having driven LHD all my life in the united states it’s the shifting of a manual using the opposite hand that takes some getting used to.

Coming through a roundabout they got T-Boned by a 79 series dual cab with a 5 poster doing 70km/hr through the centre of town. The little Baleno took it like a champ, everyone inside got out without a bruise, and it even would've driven back to the dealership under its own power if the cops hadn't called the tow truck. Suzuki know how to build a nugget - tough, economical, and just enough cromulence inside to make you appreciate the little things.

In the west, most cars like Tony (tiny, first-time car, post-rationing, with the multi-stroke tiny engines and so on) were built in the 40s and early 50s. Tony's body shell is definitely a bit more modern, but the engine is really still postwar type tech. And that's not a dig at Soviet Poland. The VW Beetle and Citroën 2CV were also sold well into the 90s in Western Europe and were very popular first-time cheap-running cars, and they were also 40s/50s engineering with some facelifts! I'm not categorically sure how the Fiat Nikki compares to the postwar Fiat 500, but that's also a 50s design with a simple rear-engine and a cute modern body shell. I'm pretty sure the engine was more modern than in the Nikki though. Fiat were really good at making these things, and they kept iterating on the formula rather than selling the same car like VW and Citroën.

Yeah the rev limiter in park is mostly a modern thing (even in manual cars), this is probably the only car on the channel that has it lmao. I guess its to stop kids hard launching it from a stand still and completely shockwaving the torque converter/clutch.

Wouldn't it make more sense to neutral drop an automatic car if one wanted to "launch" it, instead of starting in park? Like if you were able to rev to 5k and try to get it into drive from park, wouldn't it just catch reverse on the way down?

@@RatBürgerSk8 both of them are awful for the torque converter, what you really want to do is be in gear but with the brakes on while you're revving-up. Handbrake if proper manual, if it's an electronic handbrake you'd apply it but then keep your foot on the actual brake pedal to keep it applied until you let go.

That's the equivalent of 59mpg, holy hell. Did you secretly unplug two of the spark plugs? EDIT: and these things are officially rated at 5.1 L/100km, or 46mpg. This is one efficient nugg right here.
@kaitlyn__L Жыл бұрын
Haha, it feels even wilder in UK MPG because then 4L/100k is 70 freaking MPG! It's probably because most of this test route is on fairly large roads, where the official rating comes from a mix of stop-start city driving and this type of driving. Being able to get an extra 25% over the rated efficiency if you hypermile it on fairly smooth-flowing traffic is not at all uncommon with these modern tiny turbos. Edit: I’ve been told that the engine in this car isn’t even turbocharged, which is even more impressive! Not sure if that’s just a turbo-less option that exists or if this exact model 100% doesn’t have it, but it’s impressive either way.

My dad and I we’re changing the sparkplugs on my moms 2011 bmw x5 and we found out they were still stock. We’ve used it every year on a 2k mile trip up dirt mountain roads with a boat in tow. I think the battery is still factory. But some water somehow got in with one of the sparkplugs and filled a cylinder with water. It’s still alive and doing well, but I think the turbos are on the way out.
