Test Drive Alfa Romeo Brera since 2006 coupe

Passion by Andrei

Nepic Tikhonov and Brera Bravissimo
It is worth a long, stuffy Moscow traffic jam, and the eye is nothing to cling. But then scattered attention is caught on the black coupe hook: the view follows the elegant lines of the body, licks the forms of the sports car and stops on the face of the one who is driving. And instead of a spectacular blonde surprise, Surprise sit there Andrei Tikhonov.

Andrei Tikhonov: From 1992 to 2000 he played Spartak, in the Russian national team made his debut on February 7, 1996, on October 19, 2000 he signed a contract with the wings of the Soviets, and already on October 20, he was leased to Tel Aviv Maccabi, where he spent a month . Since December 2004, Captain FC Khimki.
Most recently, the half is so closely followed the movements of his legs (especially right), which and supermodels would envy. He's running into the presidents in 1996, it would have been not less than Zyuganov's votes. Even in a quiet Chukotka village knew that hitting the right to the nearby goal. And therefore almost every week is full of victory shocked fists. Andrei in Spartak, Andrei, in the national team, even Ksyusha Sobchak dreams about such an number of esters on the central canals. But Tikhonov came not for glory, but for football, and therefore even now, when he is not in Spartak and not in the national team, he loves and respect him. Rare gift.
We also decided to express our respect to a large football player, having gone to his right foot. In my style, of course. We put the gas pedal from Alfa Romeo Brera a bright model, which in an extravagant dress jumped right from the podium to the Moscow street. No wonder the creator of the novelty Georgetto Judjaro received the main prize in the field of art, and at the 21st International Automobile Festival in Paris, sports car is named the most beautiful car in the world. Although people responded in traffic jams, raising the thumb up the thumb up on a fashionable voice or football star to say difficult. Most likely on the other.
After all, Alpha in Russia is still rare. A little more than six months have passed since the return of the brand to the market, but the machines with a stylized shield on the nose noticeably did not become. So Andrei not only got acquainted with the brare, but also introduced others. Tikhonov can be seen on the streets of Moscow early the next day the exhibition in Guma was made in Italy. Almost right: everything is done on the Pyrenees in Krare, with the exception of the motor. V-shaped sixmaking on the GENERAL MOTORS factories in Australia.
 
After a few days, after a few days, all 260 horsepower from this motor with a volume of 3.2 liters, Andrei sounded confidently and did not doubt a second: quite incendial. Full youth. It's easy to light, but the main thing is not to inflate the fire and not burn alive. Gambling, I was hard not to succumb. But Tikhonovaya antipyretic so did not need. Moreover, after a few seconds he said this, from which even flewing past the pigeon crashed into a bar.
 
There would be another turbine ... or compressor. This second we finally become clear to us: Andrei is our person. Does not ride goes. Because we noticed that Brera with the Australian Six, this is no longer an old alpha on the foursome, there is no stall, passion, character. The compressor would be here or. Turbin would. And even admitted Andrei that the dynamics of the coupe was quite adequate to 100 km / h, the car accelerates for 6.8 with a sense of an underwater fairy tale remains.
 
If Andrei Tikhonov has no growth in 179 cm. There was no complaints about the salon, then, for example, a teamwork partner, Roman Berezovsky's goalkeeper, rising higher, hardly would hardly restrain his head in a rack. And the driver with a thorough complex here will be very closely. But I'm not fat, it is convenient for me. And the panoramic glass roof gives a feeling of space and light. I liked Andrei and the driver's landing, he was pleased with the informative of the instrument panel and the quality of interior design. The appearance of the car, of course, extravagant, but inside here everything is a restrained, absolutely nothing, all to the place and at hand. I like this layout of the middle console, which the devices are deployed towards the driver. Who is the main thing here immediately!.
 
With a salon scheme 2 + 2 places on the rear seats purely nominal. It is said that they are intended for children, but even my nine-year-old son here's legs have nowhere! Okay, at least that he after training from these wet legs and is not against. He is even useful, Andrei smiles. He is obviously not completely bad and the place is enough and everything is in order with handling. Italian beauty of the stack, helpful and obedient. The steering wheel is sharp, and the car reacts instantly! But at the same time gently and without nervousness. Class!
 
For such a thing, it is possible to forgive the properties of a tough sports suspension, besides to endure the features of Russian roads, Andrei, and on our machines. Roman at the speed of Tikhonov began fourteen years ago. In 1993, he scores his first goal in the Higher League and buys the first car hit the beginning of the ninetieth black nine. But in the caste of the elected owners of the front-wheel drive Vase, Andrei consisted of only a year. Arriving once from the training charges in Turkey, in the parking lot of the Spartak base in Tarasovka, he did not find the nine of the nine. Then there were other machines, and the criterion of choice or evil and fast or kind and large and large. Among the most memorable Mitsubishi Eclipse, Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and Land Rover Discovery 3. Its current fleet is fresh Audi TT and the Infiniti FX crossover.
 
Despite the aggressive ride manor, on the road Tikhonov, on his own admission, remains a gentleman: I do not cut anyone, I try not to break, although I go very quickly. So it can say about myself and the most awesome street passer, but Andrei man is serious, he can believe. I can not tolerate traffic jams. We are not in order to buy dashing cars to crawl in one row! Andrei says calmly, with his branded cunning smile, passing gas along the way. Accelerated outside the Khimki window. Alive me only traffic jams and traffic cops. The first kill morally, the second brakes in the midst of excitement, as if judges on the field, they are not fined not with cards. If on the field he is a recognized player-universal with a wide range of actions, then on the road he has one amplua striker. Brera is very like me, I love quick and small coupe. Plus, of course, appearance. Italy, Milan pops up in memory immediately. In Khimki, by the way, with a Milan, the form is similar, black and red stripes ... In Brere, as if in a time car, ahead of all for a few seconds. And in order to win, just need to be one step ahead! But if you choose, I would prefer the open option, Spider. Is not supplied? Then, maybe Audi TT Roadster. Also because a good option.

Light on the brother is easy, but the main thing is not to inflate the fire. Roman at the speed of Andrei began with the purchase of black nine.
