My old car...
 

Here is the photos of my old car...

This is a VW Santana GLS 2000 1989 alcohol engine (2.0 liter and 112 PS)


















Enjoy! :cool:

nice ride!

2 door Santana, cool!!!

Thank you, fellows...! :cool:

See ya! :wink:

maybe a rare question for you brazi people...

wtf do you mean by alcohol engine?? Is it runnin on wodka or somethin' ??? :D:)

I think somthing like: It drinks just as much as the driver does... ;) :D

*oops, I read alcoholic engine... :redface: *

WOOOAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If my Santana had looked the same as your old one I never sold it!!!!! Really like the car :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

Alcohol engine means ALCOHOL ENGINE... more especific Ethanol Engine....
Here is an interesting link that explain all:
Click ME!!! :D

Its an brazilian fuel that was developed from sugar cane (that is a renewable source) and is more eficient than gasoline (an 2.0 Gasoline Santana has 99 cv and the same car moved by alcohol has 112.... ).
The only problem was that in winter it was almost IMPOSSIBLE to start the engine..... WAS, because nowadays electronic fuel injection can solve this problem.... ;)

Man, I STILL love those 2-door Santanas!

I like those wheels, what are they?

Thanks, FDL...

But remember... Only cars WITHOUT regular maintenance is almost impossible to start the engine in winter. My alcohol engine cars never shows this problem in winter. ;)

See ya!

In Brasil we have Pinga or Cachaça, from sugar cane too...it's our version of vodka...

Thats because you live in São Paulo.... here in Curitiba in winter the temperature goes to -2ºC, -3ºC..... and my father had a Parati Alcohol 1984 (Fox Wagon), that thing in winter was REALLY hard to start.... (it didn't had the gasoline reservatory..... )

Geeee!!
You really had that sell that car?

Petrobras pumps amaze me, still find it weird to see a big pump with ALCOOL on it!
Nice Santana Coupe :p

In the near future, cars will run on alcohol here as well (as an additive to currently used fuels)

our gasoline have 20 to 25% of ethanol as additive...
