Cars you didn't know existed until very recently.

[GrumpyCat]

Yeah spot on. It's a JDM Toyota Will VS (with optional bodykit).

 

Have a look at the Will Cypha, that's an odd one too.

S90, We like ours very very much, much better than the corresponding Audi,Jag, BMW or Merc. 

 

 

Front view is a lot better.

Excellent thanks, you've answered two questions, one of which I never even asked! I've seen a few of those Cyphas about but didn't know what they were. Now I do, thanks. They usually seem to be in some sort of dayglo shade.

 

By the way, you're avatar made me smile. Kevin Eldon as Rod Hull, that takes me back.

[Dick Cheeseburger]

I'm assuming this never existed. I like, though.

I've always had a soft spot for estate cars, particularly those of three door variety ..as in many of the more sporting coach-builts. Perhaps it's the overall proportions & balance of these cars, their seamlessness, or the longer (and seemingly more streamlined) length of the glazing ..as well as their inherent usability.

 

Accordingly I was rather taken by this very stylish Citroen CX  . .

Less weird than a Renault 7!

A Vauxhall by any other name is still shit.

[xkjagnz]

Saw this today so I know it exists but I still don't know what it is. A quick Google suggests it's a Toyota of some sort but I'm none the wiser. Some sort of JDM?

The WiLL VS loads of these in NZ (this is the good looking WiLL - looks a bit like Darth Vaders Helmet (ooer) or so I'm told)

The Ginger step child of the family is this

The WiLL VI

Lordy.

Pass the eye bleach!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sir Snipes]

Looks like one of those Yankee Grumman things with a Swedish facelift?

Poverty spec Rover 600's...

Saw this posted to a facebook page the other day, and I want it! 

 

Base spec for the win and all...

 

 

[Timewaster]

I would love to think that 600 has a giant clock in place of the rev counter, or even better a base allegro style cardboard target.

[Sir Snipes]

Or a simple plan drawing of a car with "rover" written over"Honda"in biro.

[Felly Magic]

Fiat's baby Rancho? That Fiat 127 estate in the ebay thread was a new one on me too. WOULD to both

[Bucketeer]

Mainland Europe only Nissan Trade.

I remember seeing a lot of Japanese mini-lorries when I was in holiday in Spain.

I was wondering ..

 

How come consumers in the UK, or perhaps vehicle marketing, don't go for crew cabs light trucks in a big way.?  They are very common indeed in Germany, Holland, and I'm sure other European & Asian countries, and are even common in the US as four door version of their pick up truck.  But here in the UK - they're pretty unusual.  Are UK work practices so different that the extra crew are not needed ?  or perhaps it is an insurance thing ?

[quicksilver]

Fiat 128 estate. This one is an import but the owner says they were sold new here.

They are unusual as work vehicles but quite common as a low tax option for company cars.

Must be at least 1 tonne payload to qualify which is probably why we don't get the cool east European ones like the Dacia

They certainly did.  September 1975 UK brochure:

I didn't know that Yamaha had ever made a car:

 

 

 

 

 

[Tayne]

You forgot the Yamaha OX99-11

 

[John F]

Nope, I didn't know about that either.

[Asimo]

Passed by one of these on the M50 'tother day. Guess this is what JLR has been up to instead of designing a new Landrover.

 

 

New use for an old (pretend) name.
