They are more Granada sized, like a giant Avenger but your point still stands. For some reason some companies just couldn't shift big cars. Fiat Croma anyone?

Yoss Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 A Corsa C on its own is nothing to shout about (though they are getting scarcer). But two together and the same colour must be photoworthy?

I also saw a rather tasty faded red Starlet which was sitting alongside a Saxo in a very pristine front garden. Pure elderly lady spec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelandeth Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Have seen this about quite a few times but don't think I've ever managed to catch a photo of it before. Absolutely perfect example from the start of what I always think of as Toyota's "This is the only car you will ever need" era.

AnthonyG Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I didn’t manage to get a picture, but I spotted a very smart E reg Renault 25 in silver in the local Sainsbury’s car park. It had what I assume was special edition ‘Symphony’ labels on the C pillars so I guess maybe a mid range model with the benefit of the full-on Philips stereo from the top specification which was ridiculously large in 25s. From memory it took up all the space between the heater controls and the gear selector, easily the equivalent size of 3 normal radios of the era.
