It was taken while I was driving through the North York neighborhood of Toronto, which makes it especially uncommon.

Aren't you from Akureyri? If yes, do you know, if Mr.Gudnasson still has his K 70? Probably not. We got his adress in 1989 or so and have never heard anything from him or his car again.

Hello!

What is a K70??
And who is that lol.

And yeah, here is a MMC lancer '91. I took the photo in June 2011. :sad:

It has been scrapped since. :cry:

Something that I did not recognize; from the sticker on the windscreen I guess Asia Motors. For the model I suppose it is a Rocsta like the few listed on the site

It is an Asia Rocsta (unless the name in Spain was different from here).

More here : www.k70-club.de :wink:

It was an owner of one, according our address-list. O.k., this information is around 20 years old...

I'm sorry, Never seen any here. :sad:

If you can give me a full name, I can try to search for it.

Did Nissan buy Ebro?

02/11/2011 @ 15:14:33: antp: interesting/funny/special cars sightings

Yes, hence why we have in Europe some Nissan trucks which are not sold outside Europe (I think).

The badge on the front says "JIMMA"--ever heard of that make? I can't find any information about it. :heink:

(not jiNma like the tractors)
It was behind a fence so I couldn't get a closer photo with my phone :disapointted:

but if some 3-wheeler fan wants a better photo I can go back with my camera.

19/11/2011 @ 20:32:23: kegare: interesting/funny/special cars sightings

It is from China nonetheless.

Was the R4 GTL "Clan" a rare model? I've seen it today on a markt in Holland, IIRC for the first time ever.

It was the only complete car, I took pics of. The show-area was about Hot Rods and modified US-cars, so not my cup of tea. On the backyard, where the cars for sale were placed, other cars were standing, too - an incredible bunch of terrible prestolith-bombers, yuk! Many cheap imported (in NL cars older than 25 years are tax-free) bigger cars, Benzes, BMWs, Citroen DS etc. Worst junk! I really fleeded back inside. Fortunately I took the door to the restaurant. In the past (during the last 15 years I've been a few times in Rosmalen) I've never been in this room, so I've discovered today these marvellous sights:

These neat little things I've bought, because I thought, that maybe soneone around here has an interest in them :wink:

One of the numerous special series they made, but I do not think that it is especially rare.

That was in June?

In any case, I just found a rare mini-travel trailer on the Tin Can Tourists forum, made by none other than U-Haul!

Yet another website by a company dedicated to towing and/or delivering trailers:

Among the trailers they claim to be willing to tow, Flight Control Tower Trailers!
