A private constructor will prevent anyone (outside the class) from
instantiating that class

Car c = new Car(name, type, ID); // won't work outside the class
Car c = new Car(); // won't exist, since you have another constructor

if you add

public static Car Nissan
{
        get
        {
                return new Car("Nissan", type, ID);
        }
}

to get Car c = Car.Nissan; to work;

Happy coding!
Morten
