Dacia Duster Photos and features

Renault’s low cost Romanian brand, Dacia, will be unveiling its very first concept at the Geneva Motor Show this week.

Called the Duster, the concept features a crossover-style body with some very interesting styling elements like headlights that trail off across the front fenders and rear tail-lights that stretch forward across a flying buttress of sheetmetal above the rear wheels. Kudos to Renault designers in Romania and France for penning such an interesting shape.

Contained within is an equally useful interior with a neat modular trick: The front passenger seat slides underneath the driver’s seat on rails, creating enough room to carry a mountain bike inside the car rather than on top of it. Of course, there are those concept car elements that have to be included like ridiculously large 21-inch wheels, an all-glass roof and rear-hinged back doors, but the Duster’s powertrain is anything but fanciful.


The concept is powered by Renault’s 1.5L dCi four-cylinder diesel engine that produces 105 hp and 177 lb-ft of torque. Dacia says that’s enough to push the Duster to 62 mph in 9.6 seconds while returning 44.4 mpg .

Classic Wheels – New Fashion Car

Your car wheels are so important in terms of aesthetics and practices that you can not afford to overlook them so easily. Of the thousands of parts that make up a car, with tires, 4 pieces of alloy round put you in contact with the tarmac and we send each driving sensation.

The new wave of light-alloy, which combines the visual with the practical, they took possession of the world market. Offer more variety than ever, with sizes, designs and different finishes. In recent years, light alloy wheels market has greatly expanded, offering huge size wheels, 34 inches or more composite materials that can make a wheel and only weigh 4 kg, with hundreds of models ranging chrome finishes to custom dyed. And the latest innovations in terms of hardness and weight are a carbon wheels, available even in Romania.


I noticed lately that car owners tend to retain their original look, classic and clean as is increasing. From here, and the success of traditional rims trucks, which have increased demand.

We will try to bring under the same umbrella of words and pictures the most famous and popular classic alloy wheels. It’s about those who contribute a lot to look clean, old-school, vintage, part loving and increasingly adopted by owners of cars of 80-90 years.

We can not overlook the German brands which constitute the vast majority of cars in search of classic wheels. So start with them. Mostly, cars with most models of wheels “dedicated” are BMW E30, E34 and E36, followed by 2 and 3 VW Golf, Corrado, but some Mercedes models. To these are added and Japanese cars that put more emphasis on classic JDM wheels.

JDM Style

I wanted to start with external styling of a single reason – as it is to meet and popularity, is so large and complex. It is so complex that it can be divided into specific styles, well defined, which facilitates the framing of personal car in a stream of tuning. We will discuss styles JDM, Hot Rod, Pimp, European and Sleeper.

We will elaborate the most important features of JDM style. I mean Japanese Domestic Market. Specifically, translate free, Made in Japan. Refers to the tuning of the machine aesthetic of Japanese, mainly the large and flat 5 brands that are subscribed to this style – Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mitsubishi and Mazda.


External tuning is a well known, perhaps the most widespread, thanks to the notoriety enjoyed by Japanese cars in the United States, but also in Europe. And to be more specific, and Romania. Basically, the cars came with the JDM style package. Unlike the Hot-Rod the main feature of modified Japanese cars are found at the videos – extreme body kits, wings flared, generous air intakes, spoilers, wings and bonnet, large ailerons impressive, live painting and paint, wheels of normal size, not oversized, with regard to large etrierele perforated discs.

It’s pretty hard to define precisely the JDM style, by the fact that has much in common with the world’s rally and racing, except to say clearly what it stands the best of Japanese cars. Not like i sit well with some “Spinne”, right? Like not sit well with an elegant interior, with leather and velvet, as Snoop Dogg in his car, right?
