davocano Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Followed a funny looking rear end today; when the traffic jam intervened I was introduced to the Suzuki Kizashi. No photo but LL13XAA for proofs it happened. Datsuncog, Slappy, Skizzer and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Kizashis are 4WD and have 185bhp, six speed manual or CVT. They're ace Q-cars but very very rare. Aston Martin, Nicola H, davocano and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datsuncog Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 ^^^ Absolutely under my radar. And, even rarer in my biased view, a Suzuki passenger car that actually looks quite neatly styled. 24-carat futureshite, for sure - rocking horse dung rarity combined with surprising performance. A Colt Cordia for the 21st century... stash now. chodweaver, chaseracer, Ghosty and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SierraMikeHotel Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I have form in this thread for spotting really ugly 4x4s. The other day (not far from Goodwood) we spotted what appeared to be a Rolls Royce SUV. Or possibly a Victorian fireplace towing a Range Rover. It was spectacularly ugly.

kinkersaab Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 As far as i am aware we only got the auto Kizashi in the uk. I have had 3. Fantastic cars, other than the £500 odd road tax band. egg, Aston Martin, davocano and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lesapandre Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Gradually the Bentley and Rolls brands are being devalued. If is not an original Rolls they should go after them for copyright. IMHO there is a place for a Rolls offroader - but it should be the ultimate in engineering and usefulness - not some gin-palace. Here is T E Lawrences 1908 Rolls used in the desert - so there is a precedent for one... Lacquer Peel, cros and adw1977 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Bo11ox Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 This car has been mentioned on the thread before, I saw a real one! MPM PS160. It looks a bit unfinished in this colour scheme.Great spot! Where'd you see it LP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadworkUK Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 You may want to get your IT guy(s) onto that, you have three comments all of which are spam and/or dodgy links. Cheers, deleted now. Problem is that the site was forced to move over to Disqus when Intensedebate went all doolaly. It's a bit of a spam free-for-all on older posts that escape moderator attention. Not like this place, where such behaviour is swiftly and robustly dealt with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulgalour Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I knew about the later 90s Ford Tempo. I didn't know about the earlier 80s ones. What's weird is the four door sedan versions look like a really chunky oversized version of our native four door hatchback Sierra.
