Formula Autos Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 1980s Dacia 1300 sport - A privately-owned rare Dacia sponsored by Practical Classics magazine. Along with the IZH and the Yugos, this was, in my opinion, the most interesting on display at this year's Classic Car show at the NEC. That's owned by Sam Glover (occasional visitor to this Parish), isn't it?
skoda_fan Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Gosh! How many cars does that chap actually own!? Mind you, I always think his pages alone make PC worth buying. I was shocked to learn the other month that besides a fleet of this sort of thing he also has a fleet of Volvos. Not a make I had given much thought to before, but I can see the attraction. Good on him!
boobydoo Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 I always thought these to be a nice looking motor and everything about this picture is just right. None of the horrible, garish bodykits and side stripes that blighted so many of these. Plain simple wheels, a nice mudflap set and a complementary door mirror. What more do you need? I never liked those nasty cheap Yugo badges on the bonnet, mind. The Zastava grille one is perfect on its own.
Skizzer Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 ^^ That belongs to Yugo guru Ian Mac of this parish.

R9UKE Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Is it still parked there? Yup, and has been for about a year:
YugoLada Posted March 17, 2012 Author Posted March 17, 2012 Yeh, i know this is a relatively new car but i have a real soft spot for Protons.
YugoLada Posted March 17, 2012 Author Posted March 17, 2012 Wow a very rare find in my village. It was parked across the road of the Scirocco. According to HML there are only 5 currently taxed of the Model. I think older owner. I do remember seeing this one about 2 or 3 years ago. But I couldn't get a photo.
YugoLada Posted April 6, 2012 Author Posted April 6, 2012 I bet it smells of burning clutch and stale wee !It does actually.
