You may not believe it, but there are not just single Dacias in use now, Logan MCV, but Logan Sedan, too. P.S.Yes, French cars and Fiats, too, except Diesel-cars often LPG- or natural gas-powered versions. A few Hybrids, too, mainly Priuses. One exotic Lateef-car is still running in the next town as a taxi: a Ford Scorpio MkII -- Last edit: 2012-09-29 00:00:38
