love my cars!

I have two cars, one is newly bought and the other one was bought 2 years ago. I have a huge interest in cars that is why when I was in college, all about cars is the topic I picked for my research paper. I've decided that if my cars are not in the demand at all, I will never ever sell them.

I want a CAR!

I've been working for ten years as an architect but until now I don't have a car yet. I am quite thrifty and practical but I am not satisfy of what I have now, something is missing. I think I should get a car now, I have savings in bank and I think that would be enough to have a nice car.

It’s a terrific advertising campaign (click… Continue
