Heh, I've never seen any of these! Might have something to do with being Canadian...but still!
I can't remember having ever seen a Mitsubishi Starion in the steel before. Ever.
Mazda, Toyota, Nissan/Datsuns, Hondas....plenty. But I've NEVER seen a Starion. Which seems odd.

That was back when my old man used to have a renaul 5 le car 2, used to do hand brake turns outside school in it when he dropped us off, was the same as this but no boot and 3 door. Did we get any of these over here, I know that there are al ot of french cars that they have a saloon style one but we never get them like the clio Renault 7. I don't even think France got them. I think they were Spanish only.

I think they were Spanish only. That's right. They were built by the FASA Renault plant for the local Spanish and Catalan market. I wrote an anthropology paper on the embodiment of local characteristics as applied to man made objects from non gated communities I mentioned the Renault 7 quite a lot. Tutor didn't like it Then I was ill. No more uni for me.

mk.1 Sirocco km.1 or 2 Capri Vauxhall Victor Ford Corsair Ford Model T (doesn't get much more retro than that!) Fiat 600 Alfa SZ A pre R32 Skyline

even though I own one I can honestly say I have never seen one in use on the actual road (cept when I saw my first one being driven by my mate)
of course I have now edited this to include the type of car
Humber sceptre mk2

Citroen Ami. There was one owned by some tasty student chick in Scumdee about six years ago. Hadn't seen one before, haven't seen one since. Fewer than 50 on 2CVGB's register, and not all of those are on the road. On a damp day, you can HEAR an Ami rusting...

On the subject of Citroens....when was the last time you saw one of these? Citroen LN.....forgotten brother of the Pug 104/Talbot Samba, with a hogged-out 652cc version of the Deux Chevaux flat-twin.
