1993 Dacia 1310 .1400Break review from Romania
"Best for Romania (mother-country), smart daughter of Renault"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
-The front sole plate (down, between the front wheels and the front chairs) had to be changed because of the rust.
General comments?
Bucharest,12.12.02.To tell you the truth, you must buy only factory-made spare parts. I have an 1993 five doors Dacia. I prefer it to a 1999 Dacia, because after 1995 the car get rusty to soon. After 1994-95, the factory use black iron plate instead of treated iron plate. The engine is 1400 cc with a 5 speeds gear and for me seems to have the right power. I had an old (1978) Opel with 1200cc I the car was not alive enough, not to speak about the expensive and poor offer of spare parts. I painted every plate on my Dacia to protect from rust and the car is as good as a new one. I made it double-feed, both oil and ecological gas and now it's economical. I hate expensive cars. For Romania and for entire Europe Dacia it's a chance for people who want a good car without spending all savings. After all a car must be a good and cheap worker for a driver, not a sexy walking stereo.
