Don't know car technical details.http://carakoom.com/blog/15897 The basic gist of the story translated here ↓https://themoscowtimes.com/articles/reinventing-the-wheel-belarus-artist-still-driving-his-home-made-soviet-car-44290 or google "Russian home made car 1968" if anyone can be bothered.

JeeExEll Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 ^^ That rear arch shape.Get Kowalski-ski.

Vince70 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 That's exactly what it was. Convertible SUVs are a thing now, don't ask why as I haven't the faintest idea. It's one of those cars I do know exists but wish I didn't. Have the eye bleach at the ready before looking at this picture.It’s so desirable in cabriolet form that owners are trying to convert them on the cheap.

Frogchod Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 What's this ?v1.jpgAnyone know ? It's really bugging me. It'd gone by the time I'd went back for a second look.There's a bit of Spitfire and Fiat 124 Spyder in there, maybe it's a kitcar ? It looked too "right" for a kitcar though.

Vince70 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I guess everyone knew about this one apart from me, but I saw a Mercedes Vaneo a month back and didn’t know it existed.It looks like an very early A class with a sliding door on the side, I can’t imagine there’s many about.

A friend's parents had one as a family car, they all hated it and it was constantly falling apart, worse than early Citroen C3s for build quality. egg and Nicola H 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chodweaver Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Vaneos were utter shit and most are dead now for very good reason.I was trying not to let my utter contempt for the early A class to colour my opinion of the Vaneo.

Ghosty Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Looks like a next gen Mokka, which we probably won't get now PSA call the shots Same platform as the Mokka. Mokka is also badged as the Buick Encore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bergerac Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Looks like a next gen Mokka, which we probably won't get now PSA call the shots It's a current generation Mokka underneath, they were sold here alongside the Mokka for a year or two before Chevrolet withdrew from the UK market. On a related note, Vauxhall now offer the Korean descended Mokka X and the PSA based Crossland X both of which seem to be competing for a similar customer.

Aston Martin Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Back to Brasil. The pickup looks amaze. Bonus from Peugeot, Citroen, weird Fiesta bumper... and a 2012 Fiesta. oldcars, egg and Supernaut 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Snipes Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Old gen fiesta with current gen style face? Seems stingy to me. Why not just give them the current version? Granted they're probably not so different anyway..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aston Martin Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Let’s head to Iran and travel back in time and buy a car based on a Kia Pride. The Z24, which started out as a Nissan Junior in 1970 and is still made today by the Iranians and it looks really cool. http://www.saipacorp.com/en/allproducts bunglebus, Lacquer Peel, egg and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernaut Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Kia. Pride. Pickup. *faints* I remember reading about that Z24 on Jalopnik a while back. They are indeed very cool. oldcars, egg, Aston Martin and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somewhatfoolish Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 That Z24 is like a pick-up Canyonero. I want one. The Shooka not so much although the interior looks to have a high velour content for a working vehicle. Sudsprint 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egg Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I guess because Iran has 80m people, they can sustain their own home grown* industry. I hadn't realised until today that the 'pretty' 3 door Mazda 323 was sold in Australia as the Ford 'Laser-Lynx' GrumpiusMaximus, Vince70, Aston Martin and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
