Dacia Sandero

Good news! It's the Dacia Sandero! If you haven't heard of it I honestly don't blame you. It is most likely known for  being seen as a running gag on the British motoring show Top Gear for a short time. Originally released in 2007 in Romania, it boasted a fuel tank that, under some conditions, was more fuel efficient than the Ford Fiesta, the Fort fiesta, the Ford Focus, the Ford Focus RS, and the Volkswagen Up! You have the choice of one of ten engines with this car, the most powerful one, a 1.6 liter 16V, giving you a total of 195 kmph (121 mph) at best, with a zero to sixty mph time of 10.8 seconds. For an extra fee in the UK, just like the Fords of 2013, you could have the car fitted with a turbo charger. But when you think about it, what is the real point? The type of person who owns a Dacia Sandaro, isn't likely to be a person who cares all that much about speed. No, the type of person why buys a Dacia Sandaro is the type of person who is looking for a fuel efficient family car that is also a subcompact, and doesn't mind too much if it looks like a slightly bloated baby hippo with wheels and headlights.
