Cities are notorious for their limited number of parking places. But during the winter things get even more complicated. The main problem is not finding a place to park your car but actually getting out of the parking. Here is a video that illustrates these words. In fact, this is not the toughest case that I saw out of my window. A couple of days ago a few guys spent half an hour trying to free up their entrenched friend.
This Sunday I went to a car show that was taking place in the ice hall near Olympic stadium. I was at a car show in NYC a few years ago. The purpose of that show was to demonstrate that year’s models and attract the customers. The purpose of this show was quite different. People were demonstrating their skills in tuning the cars. Many people have decorated the interior and exterior of the cars, for example with nice pictures.
Also, classic sports cars were present, for example Porshe 911. There were a few very old cars made in 1920s. There was even one dragster. Overall, there were over a 100 of cars, I was really impressed. Most of the cars were from Helsinki area including Vanta and Espoo, but there were a few from Tampere as well.

While walking from home to office this morning I saw a very interesting car. Any idea what is this? An engine or a boiler?
