spartacus Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I reckon these are weapons grade, even the name is shite, I mean, what social circle do you have to be in to want to tell your mates you drive a 'Cam-Pro1.6 Gen2', the name is worse than the car.

davocano Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 If you have a spare hour or two, I wholeheartedly recommend a perusal of this guy's flickr photostream. He gets around a bit and spends a fair amount of time in unlikely countries such as the Lebanon. That's right, the LEBANON. The old 'shite over there is plentiful and quite spectacular. https://www.flickr.com/photos/worldcars/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought a gentoo was a type of penguin. Turns out the car looks a bit like a series 1 Renault Megane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartacus Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Ha ha, I never thought of that. I assumed that some marketing bod thought it might put people in mind of Evo 2, as in Mitsubishi.I don't think it's too bad a looking car, but there's something I can't put my finger on that shouts out 'I don't care what I drive'.

BorniteIdentity Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Nearly creamed my load when this wonderful Monty nipped in ahead of me at a junction yesterday. It was in really good condition. Pinstripe was missing from the offside rear quarter panel, but otherwise it seemed in very good condition. I followed it as long as I could. Giffer pilot naturally.

BL Bloke Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 took my camera out for a walk today and saw these. The Yaris is shown as being registered at the end of March 1999 so must be one of the oldest examples left.

BorniteIdentity Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 The garage in my small village has a small collection of festering chod outside. It was ever thus; I think they’re customer’s cars that have been given up on. Anyway, I must be getting older and more masochistic, because there was a whole cavalcade of shit there this afternoon. The 306 is of particular interest because purple and in VGC. It seemed to be full of car parts so might now be owned by the garage.

jamesC. Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Here’s a few I’ve seen over the past few months. This was parked outside a garage a few months ago. Haven’t seen it since so it’s probably been scrapped now.These are really rare. You don’t really notice because they’re so anonymous looking but these are the only two I’ve ever seen. Nothing compared to this thoughI’ve never seen another of these. Never even seen one for sale. Fairly obvious where this is headed. Shame but it looks rough and what sane person would want it I quite like these Hondas. This is mine Datsuncog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
