Let us begin our third interview!! This time we have our good friend Mc Scraach a very pasionate person of the extreme sports and his ride, a Kia pro_cee’d 1.6 LX in which he has dedicated a lot of time to imprint his own style and without a doubt, makes jealous more than one person while he rides around town.
I havent had the opportunity to meet Mc Scraach personally, but its not because he havent tried it, because he has invited many times to his regular meets he organize in Romania. Kia fanatic and extreme sports, Robin is the founder of the Romanian Kia forum, FanKia, and his other website about extreme sports, Extreme Wheels, one of his biggest hobbies.

When I saw kia Pro_cee’d instantIy felt in love, I like the car design and I was amazed that Kia made out a car so beautiful. I was very puzzled about the car that I bought, also i got positive feedback for the OpelAstra, VW Golf but i was limited in money too.
