Scratches are quite unpleasant, but in any case inevitable. The main negative impact of external factors on the colored part of the car body are moisture, temperature, sun, acid and alkaline solutions, the sand flying from under the wheels, small and sometimes large rocks, prentice riding of other drivers (which often leads to scratching), substandard washing, etc.

Consider a specific example. You purchased a new or used, but completely repaired and re-painted car. After one and a half or two years in good daylight you begin to notice many small and rather deep scratches, chipped stone, matte mesh of fine scratches after bad washing, as well as the burned spot on the bonnet and on the roof - traces of sun and acid rain. Of course, hardly anyone would like that. Seeing this, let’s say, unpleasant picture, you’re already starting to count how much money you need to fix all this. Is it because even a few fairly deep chips on the bonnet will make you to re-paint it? Can I just pick a color? How long will it take? Let us say clearly – you can do all of this, and even with quality, but the cost will be expensive and will take time.
And yet this situation is a simple way out - Turtle Wax products. Let’s try to separate small-scale damage to the body into three groups on the complexity of their removal and types of products.
Group I: deep scratches and chips to metal - the most difficult to remove. This type of scratches and chips are almost impossible to remove by cosmetic products. In this case, we recommend using wax crayons from a Chipkit ™ kit from Turtle Wax. Suitable by color pencil Chipkit ™ helps to hide the defect and special glue in it will stop development of a corrosion.
Group II: Scuffing, tarnishes and paint matting - the most common and challenging type of injury. Why is the problem? Because deep scratches to the paint often push us to take more drastic measures, such as re-painting, and surface scratches - like there is nothing to paint, but are looking just as ugly as deep scratches. In such cases, and a preparation Safe Cut ™ Scratch Remover – new product this season from Turtle Wax. This product removes the surface scratches, tarnishes and persistent pollutions. Removes painting defects – dust or small painting unevenness - either manually or by the use of grinding machines. Suitable for all types of paints, including metalloeffective.
Group III: microscratches and lines left by improper cleaning or polishing the body – is also a common problem, which makes the paint dull. Could be eliminated by grinding pastes of different types, but in their use you can overdose it and do even worse. Turtle Wax Inc. Company developed yet another new season - Scratch & Swirl Remover - special milk to remove microscratches. Suitable for all types of paints.

Teenagers in Florida, who like tuning their cars, have a new fetish. Instead of boosted engines, expensive rims and powerful sound, they are now mad from the locomotive beeps. A good set of equipment gives more than 150 decibels. The machine equipped with such a retro device, can make the make the whole neighborhood crazy. What young hooligans from Miami are actually doing.

The highest pleasure for them – ride on their car to the bus stop or to the other vehicle, in which unsuspecting couple is making love and make a beep from all the “trunks”
Fans of extremely loud sounds have argued that the fashion for them came from the vehicle owner in Miami Gubb Justera. That guy seems to be the first to put on his pickup truck horns from the locomotive. His idea was picked up at a local Red’s customizing studio, and then in the other workshops. A set of five locomotive «horns» from a Nathan Manufacturing Co.,producing these devices since 1940, worth $ 2500. For $ 950 you can buy a triple chrome «pipes» made in China, but actually, they are triple weaker than from the previous manufacturer. Customizers do not treat Chinese ones well, because they are very cheap plastic sets with compact compressors. «They are useless», - says a guy in the Red Workshop. We put «pipes» on any car, starting from Honda Civic to the huge show-tracks. The larger the machine, the more beeps are asked by the owner to put there. «On one track, we have put 15 horns », - said 27-year-old Steven Menendez, working with Red.
The public, of course, constantly complains about the mob to the police. Victims of attacks compare their sound with a strike on an iron sheet - after that, they say, they are feeling deafened. The police regularly fines hooligans, but it does not stop them. 20-year-old Lino Alvarado, especially with his unique ring back tone who get used to frighten an elderly audience, confident that the entertainment worth hundreds of dollars that he spends each month on the fines. «When I meet another guy goes on the truck, he gives a hoot, and I answer him. The next time we meet, this guy makes no signal because he knows that I have a horn louder than his», - the young man boasts.

The famous Company General Motors has celebrated its centenary by producing a perfect present Chevrolet Volt. This hybrid auto was presented in Detroit. GM president Rick Wagner claimed that General Motors Volt concept car would become a symbol of the company and would open the new era of hybrid cars production.
Such cars are unique by its unusual hybrid drive that combines the electric motor and internal combustion engine work. This engine working either on gasoline or on bio-ethanol charges the generators and the wheels are driven by electric motor. The last also gets the energy from lithium-ionic battery that can be charged by 3 ways: with the help of socket (it needs 3 hours if the voltage is 220 volts and 8 ones if it is 120 volts), with the help of internal combustion engine or regenerative braking.
Motion reserve while using only electricity is 64 kilometers. It’s enough for daily city traveling and therefore Volt owner can completely refuse from furl use. But if one needs to drive far away Volt will overcome nearly 1024 kilometers with the whole tank of gasoline. The maximal speed is 160 kilometers an hour. Other dynamical indicators are kept dark.
General Motors Volt concept car work scheme is easy. Electric motors getting the energy from the battery make the wheels move. Internal combustion engine contacts only with the generator. The average fuel expense is near 5,8 litters per 100 kilometers.
Aside from that the car is rather traditional. It is built on the global GM Delta II platform. Wheel base of the front-wheel drive vehicle is 2685 mm and its general length is 4404 mm that is similar to hatchback Toyota Prius size. The front has McPherson studding, the backside does the torsional spring. The car has also a small trunk 301 litters in volume.
Besides the fact that car manufacturing date is undefined the developers has counted that Volt owner will save 2200 euro yearly if comparing with the traditional auto with internal combustion engine.
This statement will be faster checked by the USA habitants because the USA will be the first Volt sale country. The hybrid will be produced at Hamtramck factory, where big sedans Buick and Cadillac were once assembled. The prices are not defined still but the car won’t be sold for the sum cheaper than $35 000. Its main business rivals are Prius and Honda Insight new generation. The competition will be severe. But it can’t be other way. Let’s paraphrase the latin saying «si vis pacem para bellum» to “if you want the green peace get ready to hybrid war!”

Forbes has recently defined the cheapest cars on the 5 continents. Many consider Tata Nano to be the most available car from India. But the Indians haven’t agreed to make its production line yet. And for the present time there are other leaders among cheap cars.
The journal Forbes decided to make the statistics but it was difficult to do that because of the difference of countries income and courses. That’s why they’ve divided the world into 5 parts; take a country with the most available auto prices in every continent. So it was Russia in Europe, China in Asia, Mexico in northern America and Chilly in the southern one. The battle between Australia and New Zealand was won by New Zealand.
The Paradise for auto miser is China that provides not only its habitants with cars but the entire world. Here is the list of China cheapest cars:
The 5th place was divided between six-seater minibus Hafei Minyi, hatchback Geely Haoqing and Suzuki Alto. The price of the cars is from $4370. The forth position was taken by FAW Envoy ($4235), the third one Hafei Zhongyi ($4080) won. The second step was Byd Flyer’s ($4080), and the cheapest car is located in China Jiangnan Alto ($3785).
The most wonderful situation is in Mexico. The country where old “Beeatle” was the most available car has now “Europeans”, “Koreans” and “Chinese” companies in Mexoci car market.
The fifth place is given to Ford Ka of the first gap ($9210). Hatchback Volkswagen Pointer ($8860) is a little bit cheaper. A strange Korean offspring Dodge Atos ($8075) costs even less. And the most available car in Mexico now is the Chinese hatchback FAW F1 for $7300.
But Mexico is not the only country that lets the guest set foot on its threshold. Chinese cars one can see in Chilly. The rating of lowest Chilly cars is open by Hafei Lobo ($7919) a hatchback from the Celestial Empire. The forth place belongs to a car with an intelligent name Chery IQ ($7512). Its original version Chevrolet Spark has the same price. After it Suzuli Alto ($7105) comes, and the head is Alto of the previous gap called Maruti ($5697).
Against the background of all this absurdity New Zealand market looks like a real stable of super cars. Just judge!
Suzuki Swift ($13 480) of the last gap closes the five. The lower price is charged for Suzuki Jimny ($13 090). The third place was left for Kia Picanto ($13 090) and the second position is given to Holden Barina ($13 090), known as Chevrolet Aveo. The cheapest Earth dormitory area’s car is Daihatsu Sirion that costs $12 315.
Russia. According to Forbes and JATO Dynamics data, the first line is occupied by the well-known “Oka” that costs $6440. The second and third places belong to classic Russian “Vaz”. And only the forth and fifth places are shared between Korean bestseller Daewoo Matiz ($8260) and Chinese Chery QQ for $8715.

BMW Company has presented a new type of future transport – a three wheel motorcycle that can lean and works on liquefied gas. It is the motorcycle to save Europe in the future.
They say three wheel motorcycles companies at once began to work on that project. Renault is creating Clio V6 now, Volkswagen began the project under the name of Lupo 3L. Lupo has become a record breaker. It needed just 3 liters of fuel to drive hundreds of kilometers. Renault and their fans were not losers: they’ve got “a mad stool” with 225-power engine. The experiment was successful.
For BMW 3 liter volume engine is usual. But the Company never aspired to economy records. BMW Company carefully experimented and adhered to traditional trend: turbine, steam turbine… That’s why it’s very brave of BMW to make three wheels, and probably they wouldn’t make up their mind on the project CLEVER if the whole Europe hadn’t supported them. The European commission considered the compact double car to be rather safe, efficient and ecologically clean, necessary to the future Europe streets. That’s why EU has done €3,3mln for this motorcycle development. The best European engineers from Germany, Austria, France and Great Britain will take part in project development.
Europe had once tried to seat its habitants to the car a few square meters in size and it was rather comfortable. Just remember the turning up Smart.
But the reason of its market failing is not a technical or economical question though the auto costs much but psychological one. Smarts sensified the feeling of incompleteness, halfway policy. It was difficult to understand either it is an incomplete car whose creators had economized on metal or a big wheelchair.
Futuristic CLEVER capsule, not shaming of its likeness to three wheel motorcycles will be appreciated better imagining that it is just a superbike.
СLEVER, decoded as Compact Low Emission Vehicle for Urban Transport has a real motorcycle engine, 230 ccm. Institut Franсais du Petrol modified it to the work on natural liquefied gas. The motor gives 17 fractional horsepower and allows gaining the double capsule up to 80 kilometers.
Moreover CLEVER spends 2,4 of fuel for 100 km. The gas is kept in two demountable tanks, whose capacity is enough for 150 kilometers.
