interesting/funny/special cars sightings

A Mahindra Pik Up 'DC' seen yesterday:

I didn't know that Mahindra's vehicles were sold in Europe. This is the case at least in Italy and in Spain, but does anyone know if they are sold elsewhere on the "old continent"? The corporate website doesn't give any information about it...

Just saw a dark green 1995-99 Buick Riviera, seen it around town a few times. Keep forgetting to grab my camera when I see it.

I just saw a beautiful silver 1998 Toyota Supra, it was stock. By the time I got my camera out it was too far away. :cry:

The Volvo looks like a 1976-77 242 model with the amber turn signal and diagonal grill stripe going from corner to corner

Spotted a Toyota Estima with French plates today. Plate was W-2?0-GJ for those who like to use the illegal site. :grin:

I didn't know that Mahindra's vehicles were sold in Europe.

It wouldn't surprise me if they were, because they are sold in the USA... but just the tractors.

I should get a picture of a nearby dealership that's selling them, but I think I'll post this video of a commercial instead.

There is a Mahindra Europe website:

http://www.mahindraeurope.com/

Looks like they started with Mediterranean Sea first.

I saw it again and the hood was back on, but the hood is black... :lol:

Thanks! I knew it was 70s (thanks to CHiPs) but didn't know anything else :grin:

I saw the extensive damage around the sunroof only after taking the pic.. but just the effort to keep it stock ( not to mention , when is gonna be another one ? ) is almost enough for the pic

No need for any illegal site :wink:
W means a garage's plate, meaning the car has just been sold and is awaiting its normal registration (sorry, I confused with WW) belongs to the manufacturer / a garage. The registration number is renewed each year but stay the same: this plate was therefore given in January 2015.
This doesn't mean that the car is a 2015 model: unlike the other SIV registration numbers, a W belongs to the garage and is not related to a specific vehicle, so a plate can be used on different vehicles as long as it used on one at a time.

[...] Looks like they started with Mediterranean Sea first.

Thanks.
"Mahindra Europe Srl since 2002 is the official importer of Mahindra vehicles in Europe".
Clearly not a best-seller in France, as I never saw any of them before this Spanish one :grin:


[...] Also this old Chevy pickup:

If with a genuine hood badge, then a 1956 only Task-Force. The medium bed (long footstep with only one small reinforcement above the rear wheel arch) makes it then a long ½-ton 3200 or a ¾-ton 3600.


Rare model: the Suburban Carrier is the GMC sibling of the Chevrolet Cameo Carrier, forerunner of both the Fleetside / Wide-Side bed style and the Chevrolet El Camino...
This said, this one is more likely a late 1955 model, as the "grille extension panels" (once more, if genuine) were removed for the 1956 model year.
