Cars in our city We have a lots of different cars in our city called Vologda. There is new and old cars, sometimes very old. We have cars manufactured abroad and cars manufactured in our country or only assemled in Russia. It's very hard to have a non Russian car now days. Spare parts is very expensive. If you are the men with an average sellary, you better have "our" car. It's not so relayable, but spare parts is very chip and there is many shops where you can buy it with no problems. There is many cars with manual gearbox in our city, because the traffic jams is not so usual and lasts a few kilometers. Technical status of these cars is not so high, because inspection is very bad. It's especially about buses. They have a very black exhoust gas sometimes.
