Something has appeared in the car park at work that I don't recognise. It's got lights and grille very similar to a Bristol Blenheim, but the grille is more oval:  ...but it's a four door saloon. Checking on DVLA says it's a Lexus, I'd say it's ES size and definitely smaller than an LS, but I can't find any that look like this. I'll try and get a snap tomorrow, but any ideas in the meantime? It's on a K-plate, if that helps at all. |

I like llamas* as least as much as Jeff Minter. *And sheep and goats  Does this count as a car? I mean its Road registerd. Its a Groupil. It has 48v AC motor. Its quite an advanced little thing, seatbelts, stereo speakers, Webasto heater, heated front windscreen glass, electric tipper. Top speed 25mph . I'm repairing this one for someone. There's an internet supermarket here called Picnic and they have a huge fleet of these and they're part of their identity. |

It's probably a prototype, but man, it would have worked!! Looks like a Photoshop. I can't place what that rear side window is from, but it will be something like a C1/107/Aygo or a small Suzuki (Alto?). The building through that window doesn't match what's behind, and the door handles look exactly the same front to rear. One 5 door Ka was a concept though, the Turing Ka (or Ka Turing) in 1998  |

The edge of that metal panel is not continued in the quarter window and the handles even have the exact same light reflection dot.  I found a pic of that KA from a different view - with standard doors.  btw. that Turing KA estate would have been a lot nicer than the actual KA IMHO! |

Would a Canta LX count on here?
I know the thread is policed by purists.

They had banks of those in Paris as self drive taxis, pop in your credit card and money was deducted as you drive. |

Rather unusually for the 'expert' there, he initially describes it as a Fiesta at 13 seconds into the walk-round video! |

Cadillac Catera Does it fit or count on here? Of course we know what we know it as……. Omega?   The Cadillac Catera is a four-door, five passenger, rear-wheel drive luxury sedan marketed from 1996 until 2001 by Cadillac over a single generation in the United States. As a rebadged variant of the Opel Omega B, the Catera was manufactured by Opel in Rüsselsheim, Germany, shared GM's GM V platform and reached a production of approximately 95,000 over five model years. |

The Cadillac Catera was such a weird fever dream kind of car even when they were new here in the US- at the time they tried to use the slogan "The Caddy that Zigs". Nevermind that literally no one who was buying Eldorados, DeVilles, and the rest of their lineup wanted ANYTHING that even remotely "Zigged". The adverts were hilarious though, I'm partial to the one with Cindy Crawford: Note that despite them being genuinely hateful cars in a lot of ways, I would still give one a home if I could find one  |
