Datsuncog Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Some nice spots from Saturday... Volvo was very clean. Ex GB car, with the original B-reg plate stencilled onto the windows (and which I now can't remember, obviously). Black dash with dark blue seats, and autobox for effortless waftage. But this was what really gave me a Looney Tunes moment: Hoo boy. Original ROI Series 1 injection example, and pretty much spotless. Sorry, but the Dolly just couldn't compare... danthecapriman, Amishtat, worldofceri and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've only just started production, after the Chinese bought a controlling stake. Possibility that Borgward might start selling RHD in Britain by 2025 but they're going to have to invest heavily in hybrid and full-electric if they're going to avoid being a flash in the pan here. Not sure SUVs are the way to go though - I'm already having difficulty reconciling the name Borgward, knowing its history, and bloated 21st century 4WD lumps. I'd have thought they would try to make more ordinary cars, just like the original company did. Roobarb and Angrydicky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have thought they would try to make more ordinary cars, just like the original company did. China seems to be full of hybrids, electric, methanol and gas transport. Seems like everyone wants an SUV here too, so I’m not surprised the first Borg car is an SUV. You will be assimilated! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk That colour is probably the front runner if I can ever justify spending the money to have the Activa resprayed. It's either that or proper Ferrari red (well, BX GTi red actually as my OCD would insist on it being a Citroen colour)...but that deep yellow is such a great colour. Remember we had a Saxo West Coast in that colour, a Seat Ibiza Cupra in lime green and a 306 GTi-6 in that gorgeous metallic copper lined up next to each other between the two workshop doors right out front of the garage. Was a contrast that could detach retinas from 500 yards. Seem to recall we had something pretty bright flanking them between the workshop and wash bag on one side me the office on the other too... can't mind what though.

I can’t wait to see it! (Even if it’s waiting a decade) I love cars that are in entirely inappropriate colours, they always look 100x better than the standard brochure colours. I’d have loved too to have seen those 3 parked together, there’s not enough colour in cars anymore.
