Practice:
1: It was a pleasure to meet with other Vento owners to discuss our cars.
when you aksed us to think about the car, the first feature we took consideration was the design.
We all quickly agreed that it made us feel nostalgic for a time in the past when we were younger.
It was easy for all of us to reach this consensus about our feeling toward his beautiful car.
I know people these days like things that remind them of the past, and the retro look the Vento is
appealing even to my daughter.
2: Recently, with the cyclical nature of fation, eveything from the 1960s seems to be repeating itself again and again.
There are many things, like bell-bottom pants, that I didn't want to see come back into again, but reviving the Vento
is a good idea. The Vento was the first sports car that was sold in the European market. That was back in 1960s.
The Ventro is respnsoble for setting it in motion. The high quailty(and the high price) of the Vento made it a
luxury, but it was one that you coun't live without.
3: I used to drive my Vento to beach every day to impress my friends. Some days I would get into the car
and just start cruising, with no direction in mind. The way I lived in those days was unusual, and the Vento
reflected my unconventional image. It fit perfectly with my carefree lifestyle. This sport car represents
the fun that people my age had when they were growing up. It is an autootive icon for my age group.
4: I like the speed of my Vento. At the time it was first introduced, it had the newest technology of all sport
car. The Vento was equipped with a state-of-the-art engine. DiPrima built the best cars around
because they really had the know-how to produce a powerful sports car.
It is no surprise that the Vento made inroads into the French market when I was young.
Everyone wanted one because we were all ready for a stylish car back then.
If the admiring way people look at my old Vento is any indication,
I think you will have a lot of success reestablishing this car.
