Skizzer Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 My, that WAS quick. I reckon it was Trigger, especially if he's christened it with a cheeky air biscuit. trigger and Angrydicky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angrydicky Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Haha! That's Mr EssDeeWon on the left, and myself on the right. We were sharing local shite spots, he was telling me about an A reg Laurel which I haven't found yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 A bit on the late side, but here's the one I had, 30 years ago.Bought almost by accident at a local car auction. It was the last thing through and I kind of took pity on it. It'll be long gone now. Bren, Skizzer, Dick Longbridge and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormee Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 That car looks like an Opel Rekord D on Psilocybin. Amazing! John F, chaseracer and Skizzer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bren Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Coming to a trader near you soon - in front of a white background and priced at £5995. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaseracer Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The FE and the Rekord D weren't too far apart... stormee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormee Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The FE and the Rekord D weren't too far apart...Not at all, I know. Quite pricey for GM to sell almost the same car in such modified looks in UK-typical numbers, Vauxhall had a very limited export market by that time. Never seen an FE on the continent.

Angrydicky Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 That car looks like an Opel Rekord D on Psilocybin. Amazing!Floorpan is Opel, but the FE was (I believe) Vauxhall's last independent effort with no outside input into the design from GM. Oh yes, the wheels are stamped "REKORD" with the Opel logo. stormee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaseracer Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Floorpan is Opel, but the FE was (I believe) Vauxhall's last independent effort with no outside input into the design from GM... Styling-wise, possibly - but only to a certain extent. The use of the Opel floorpan dictates other critical structures and hard points, which in turn limits the scope of the outer design. I've always liked the FE, but Vauxhall expended much resource to end up with something that looked similar to the Rekord D anyway. stormee and Angrydicky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
