They did not. We did get the original version, the Eclat, for a couple of years, but they didn't send many, so they were rare new, and extinct now.

yep, that's the one i was thinking of . I just assumed it was a coupe version of it .

Thanks for the ID
We got Hyundai, Microsoft , Wrigley but no Lotus Excel

Stateside, the Wrigley Excel Gum is called Eclipse

Someone really must've wanted to own a unique car, since this guy parked in his garage an old Triumph and... a Skoda Octavia???!!

And it's RHD!

night cub you live near my finance!?!?!? She lives off Robert Best in EHT.

I am down there every other weekend. We just toured Tomasello Winery & Banquet Hall in Hammonton for our ceremony and reception. We have a tour in 2 weeks at Renault winery and the Carriage House. Also, we have a tour at Smithville the following Sunday.

If you see a Silver Mirage G4 with PA plates more than likely that is me! Unless I have the CB7 then you will undoubtedly know it is me. (who else has a 1993 Rosewood Brown Metallic CB7 in 2023 with limo tint, hood bra, USDM window visors and a rusty hood).
I don't normally like to drive the CB7 because she is easily stolen. Basically if you know how to steal them all you need is a screw driver and a jimmy.

Does it works with a Blazer too ? ..

In Japan are -as elsewhere, too- many of such collectors.
Recently my friend Hiroshi from Yokohama send me pics of a guy, who owns besides a VW K 70 as restoration object a Hino 4 CV in perfect condition.

Hiroshi himself owns a 1989 Porsche 911 -used imported from Germany in 1991- in absolute mint condition with only 14.000 km on the clock.


Yesterday I had a real rare sight - a

with Ukrainian plates.

When I told it ZLAT, he was impressed, that this clunker made the way to the far West of Germany.

seen today : Fiat 500 ( Ye Olde one )
not sure which one i saw exactly, i know there is many versions but i can't tell the difference..

VW Passat NMS with Beetle's Classic wheels .. that looked really strange..

forgot, also saw what i think my first ever Eunos Roadster ( well, it is one but i don't remember if i saw some before .. )

Spotted at my area:

1996 Chevrolet C-1500 Silverado [GMT400]

i thought the Fairlane was the thing to look at..

Two-minute crash course, introductory level:

For normal saloons (estates were different) it's a game of 2 halves
- 1957-65 - rear hinged doors (Nuova 500, 500 D)
- 1965-73 - front-hinged doors (500 F, L, R)

Other big clue when present is that 500 L had tubular bumper guards. No idea what if any 500s officially hit CDN, but US got several variants of the first half early ones, all with strange goggle-eye headlights

I'm not the most expert about 500s but the R was produced and sold, at least in Italy, until 1975

Thanks dsl for the 500-cology class

so, would be a L

For us HEMI-fans it would be the RAM

Today, on the short Autobahn-trip to the Doggie-swimming in the next town, I saw on the oncoming lane annother Durango (quite rare in Germany) - and 20 seconds before over 1 Milion € in Benzes
- two 300 SL Gullwing
- one 300 SL Cabriolet
- one 300 SE [W112] Cabriolet

That one has the Cummins diesel engine C fender badge but since most do have the HEMI, i guess you're right..

Yes, I know, that political intent is not welcome here - but the sound of this Cummins Diesel at 8:00 went around the world:

There was a good UK news clip on BBC a few months ago where they blocked an M25 junction. Bloke got his full kit of bagpipes out of the car and blasted them at full pelt in the faces of the protestors. Then the police told him to stop ...

Also a picture - I don't think UK, maybe Germany? - a protestor glued his ear to the road. So the police cut out the bit of tarmac and arrested him still with it glued to his ear when they took the mugshot at the copshop. Presumably they didn't use a roadmender's pneumatic drill ....

i'm an absolute zero when it comes to climate stuff but.. are they really sure that creating a i don't know how many miles traffic jam is actually helping the climate ?

Helping them getting visibility, yes .. but other than that ?

Yesterday I saw an AMC Gremlin (green, of course) here in Melbourne Australia. This is the first one I've ever seen in person.
