Customers Reviews  2010-01-13 Not Exactly Wetsuit The seat covers look nice but are not a "wetsuit neoprene" material. They are a water resistant man made material on the seat and seat back surfaces only. The back and sides are of the standard flimsy polyester found on all seat covers in this price range. MY MISTAKE Should have read the ad more closely. You get what you pay for. |  2009-11-12 Fits Great. I bought these car seat covers for my son's car but when they arrived I put them in my car. These covers doesn't cover the storage pocket in the back of my seats. I had a hard time finding seats covers like these. For anyone who is into water sports and have bucket seats with seatback pockets, these are exactly what you'll need. I am very happy with these seat covers. |  2009-05-03 Very cheap, but not cheaply made... No luxury seatcover, true, but worth every penny, and holds up quite well. Looks good too. Worth it. Fits a 91 celica quite well. A good buy! |

What Do You Know About Car Classifications: Size, Body type, Leading WheelsAt the moment there are way too many car classes and it is no wonder a lot of people cannot tell them correctly with this or that car. The cars are classified by size, body type, the number of leading wheels. A great number of people even don’t know what a “5-door hatchback” is. So let’s find out.
Cars: big and small
Let us start from the size of the car. In the widely spread European classification there are 6 classes of passenger vehicles (excluding sport coupe, 4x4 SUVs and so-called off-road universals) according to the width and length.
A B C D E F
Length less than 3500 3500-3900 3900-4300 4300-4600 4600-4900 more than 4900
Width under 150 1520-1630 1630-1690 1690-1730 1730-1820 more than 1820
So the lowest class A features such cars as Rover Mini, Renault Twingo, Daewoo Tico and Matig. They are tailored for city use.
Class B is more extensive. Cars like Skoda Felicia, Opel Corsa, Peugeot-106, Renault Clio, Fiat Punto, Volkswagen Polo, Ford Fiesta, Toyota Yaris, Nissan Micra etc fall into this class.
The most popular class in Europe is class C: Volkswagen Golf и Bora, Skoda Octavia, Opel Astra, Ford Escort и Focus, Audi F3, Peugeot-306, Fiat Brawo/Brawa, Penault Meganе, Alfa Romeo 145/146, Nissan Almera, Toyota Corolla, Daewoo Nexia etc.
A lot of cars fall into class D: Alfa Romeo 156, Audi A4, BMW 3-series, Mercedes-Benz C, Opel Vectra, Peugeot-406, Ford Mondeo, Toyota Avensis, Nissan Primera, Volkswagen Passat etc.
Class E is less multiple: BMW 5-series, Mercedes-Benz E, Audi A6, Opel Omega and a few more models.
The luxurious class F is represented by such cars as Mercedes-Benz S, Audi A8, BMW 7-series and a few more makes of cars.
The literature sometimes mentions old-school terms as “the smallest class” (includes classes A and B), “small” (C), “middle” (D), “big” (E), “extra-big” (F). The attentive readers will definitely note that not all the cars included by us into this or that class totally meet its requirements. For instance, Daewoo Nexia which had been included into class C must be in class D (according to its length – 4.48 m). The point is that the direct ancestor of Nexia is Opel Kadett was a hatchback which totally matched class C. The body type sedan (which is Nexia is produced in now) is a little longer, but all other parameters make the car close to class C.
Body is the face of a car
If the talk came to body types, let’s find out what body types are there.
The classic body type is sedan (in the US – Sedan, in the UK – saloon, in France – Berline, in Germany – Limousine, in Italy - Berlina) – closed 2- or 4-door body with 2 rows of seats with protruding cowling and boot (consisting of 3 capacities – 3-capacity body).
Another body type is also widely spread – universal (in the US - Station Wagon, the UK - Estate car, in France – Break, in Germany – Kombi, in Italy - Giardinera) – in contrary to sedans they consist of 2 capacities as the interior and the boot make up one single capacity. One more door is added to the side ones – the rear door. At the moment a number of automotive manufacturers produce sport universals, the dynamic features of which are not inferior to sedans or even sport car. Such models are: BMW Touing, Volvo V 70R и Audi A6 Avant.
In the classes A, B and C there is a tendency towards a middle body type – hatchback – a mixture of sedan and universal.
At the moment another body type is gaining popularity – 1-capacity bodies with no protruding cowling or boot: Renault Megane Scanic, Opel Zafira, Mercedes-Benz A.
All 4 wheels
To sum up, let me tell you about another group of vehicles which are gaining audience’s attraction at the moment – SUVs. These are 4WD cars which bear the name Sport Utility Vehicle – SUV. In the US it is huge 4WD pick-ups or off-road universal vehicles, in Europe - Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V and Land Rover Freelander.
