In Aus the Telstar really came in to replace the aging Cortina. It is seen as a totally undesirable humdrum method of transport, but in its day it was exactly what the average Aussie needed. They were pretty much just a poorly built 626 though imo. lol However we did later get the Telstar TX5, which was a kind of luxury performance jobbie. The Ford Laser (Mazda 323) TX3 was a stormer though. Turbo 4wd - A scan is nowhere as nice as the real thing. Does anyone have any C110 and earlier Skyline stuff they want to sell me?

Look at those radios!! Cool, why didn't we get them? The radios are a great thing to see, a lot of double-deck stuff and there's usually a version with a microphone in case you need to do a bit of dictation while stuck in a jam. There's a fantastic one in the Celeste brochure, try to get a few more scanned in later this week. Nice to see that UK Telstar Zeus! Looks like Ford wheels on it? There's a Laser (aka 323) with what looks like XR3 wheels on it too, did these rebadged ones get different PCD? Baz, I agree Telstar nose does rather ruin the 626, think there's at least one other version of it. Rather envious of your Starlet brochures Snoozin! I always try to get a few on models I've had but they have eluded me so far.
