sloth Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 gents, after reading mr bollox's thread on the seat malaga, it made me wonder, what prime autoshite is now extinct, at least on uk shores? feel free to post pics.
Split_Pin Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 To me, there's loads of cars that might as well be extinct, never mind any 'facts', as I haven't an an example in years, not even at a show or on ebay.
Formula Autos Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 According to HML there is another contender - the Fiat 133. T'was a SEAT built thing briefly sold in the UK in the '70s that was basically an 850 rebodied in a vaguely 126/127 style. A relative of mine had one in the mid '80s, which is probably the sole reason I knew they exist. I've never seen another, and I was a right car nut in my youth - I'd have noticed one a mile off. None roadworthy, but 3 on SORN, apparently. eddyramrod 1

dollywobbler Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Nissan cherry Europe?Hardly. Pretty sure one member of this forum owns two of them.
sierraman Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 What are there no Malagas left at all? What about the Seat Ronda? Hml shows there's 2 or 3 Lonsdales left, but where are they?
