Car is best thing from what becomes available when you celebrate your 18th birthay. Just don't buy french car if you don't want to be disappointed. BTW infrastructure of roads has nothing to do with age when you can drive. In most European countries roads are good as in USA, but I don't think there is any nation in Europe where you can get driver license at age of 15.

You are from Nederlands. Can you understand German? You know what means "K?nigstiger". Next generation Tiger tank a.k.a. K?nigstiger, Tiger II, Panzerkampfwagen Tiger VI Ausf. B. Was the best WW2 tank/panzer.

Not bad at all. T-34 is not so cool. Germans Tiger II "King Tiger", the most powerful series-production tank of WW2.
In terms of kills per losses, the King Tiger might well have been the most successful tank "destroyer" employed during the war, reaching an average ratio of approximately 16:1. This impressive ratio was primarily due to its extreme firepower / protection ratio, which gave it an enormous advantage when used in a defensive role. However, poor mobility and mechanical unreliability greatly diminished its offensive capability.
It combined the heavy armor of the Tiger I with the sloped armor of the Panther. The design followed the same concept as the Tiger I, but was intended to be even more formidable. The very heavy armor and powerful long-range gun gave the Tiger II the advantage against virtually all opposing tanks. In a defensive position it was difficult to destroy. The Tiger II performed very well against Allied and Soviet tanks.
Defensively, the heavy soviet IS-2 was unable to penetrate the front even at point blank. The M26 Pershing and IS-2 had to come within 500 m and 200 m to destroy the king Tiger respectively.
In any event, when the King Tiger could be deployed in a defensive role it was usually successful against Soviet armor; for example, the 503rd SS Heavy Panzer Battalion scored over 500 kills in the period from January to April 1945 on the Eastern Front, for the loss of 45 King Tigers (most of which were abandoned and destroyed by their own crews after mechanical breakdown or for lack of fuel).
It is reported that in early March 1945, the crew of Lieutenant Beckmann's Nashorn tank destroyer (armed with the very long PaK 43/1 88mm gun) destroyed a Soviet IS-2 at the extreme range of 4,600 metres, near Marzdo.

P.S.: Don't take it serious.
P.S.S.: Just don't kill your self. Everything will be ok.
