Since you requested that I do all garage questions, you're doing the same too
Do they know how to drive?
How long have they been driving?
The first automobile in Romania arrived in 1889, and I think he would have found the whole idea of driving quite interesting, but may have not persued the act itself immediately after (I mean, yeah, it's a cool metal box on wheels but horses are still around, he could still walk from point a to point b). I'd like to think he started driving somewhere in the early 1900s, though, so he has more than 100 years of driving experience.
What kind of vehicle do they drive?
Dacia Duster, and he's quite proud of it and the popularity it's gained.
Are they good with mechanics?
I'd say yes, at least to some degree. The thing is, if there's a problem, whether it has to do with his car or anything else, Horia will immediately try to fix the issue himself first. He's handy and a jack of all trades kind of man, and I'd imagine he's got quite a bit of knowledge on the subject. If there's something, however, truly baffling and which he can't entirely seem to figure out, he'll go see a specialist (but ONLY after multiple tries of his own).
Do they take part in any sports?
Definitely! Football/soccer is his favourite, but he's passionate about other sports, such as oina (national sport) and swimming and skiing. He's also really big on gymnastics and tennis, due also to the successful athletes his country has proven to have in these particular sports.
Do they have a need for speed? Or do they like to take things slow?
Kind of a need for speed. In Bucharest he'll try not to be too reckless, as the other drivers can also be absolutely hectic and Bucharest traffic is just a whole other thing on it's own, it's unbelievable but not in a good way. He'd like not to crash his car, but he's got a horrible road rage which can lead to him speeding past other drivers in anger the second the light turns green. May accidentally cut off other drivers too. As for when he's outside of Bucharest, he'll sometimes go over the speed limit and has had his fair share of tickets in his life.
