I must say that this is so far the best car to drive what I have experienced, the ride is very smooth and comfortable.

I was supposed to have this car for the whole weekend but on Saturday morning there was unpleasant surprise waiting for me in the parking lot. Two other cars also suffered the same and I had to take the Range Rover back as it wasn’t in the driving condition any longer. So sad that you wait for about three weeks for something and then you have only about nine hours time to actually enjoy it instead the full weekend.

Edit: Local newspaper Aamulehti wrote an article about this case (unfortunately, only in Finnish).

It was arranged in the Nokian Tires test track nearby and offered excellent environment for some serious driving skill learning. The usual “Avoid the moose” and break on the slippery road was included and I must say that after you try to break hard on the slippery road and also steer the car and your speed is above 90 kph then it gets a little bit difficult.

We had also a nice collection of different Honda cars in there including both Civics, both Accords and CR-V. I must say that I was surprised about the CR-V, it was handling very nicely for being a SUV.

Guess who forgot to bring his camera with him? Yep, me. I brought the camera with me to the office but left it there. Silly me but of course I was driving most of the time so I wouldn’t be able to take so many photos anyway.

It wasn’t the most sporty one but it was pretty nice to drive anyway.

I specifically wanted this car – Lincoln Aviator, suitable for 7 persons but I was driving alone. It was very nice car after I got used to it. Lots of space and quite powerful.
