M'coli Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Special sky gazing night tonight, it's a full moon with Mars in the sky very close to it, so let's have some Astro-shite. First up is a Toyota Space cruiser with the usual Moon roof. Then a Golf estate in Mars red Then there's a Saturn Also with rings, this is usually driven inches from Uranus How about a Mercury? A Jowett Jupiter And finally, the Transit of Venus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIH Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I can't decide on that green Sunny estate. Maybe low on slot mags & a noisey exhaust ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 They probably wouldn't suit that Sunny at all being RWD fitment, but I have a set of 14" slot mags for sale, as you probably know... It's in the cheap tax band too. I love how the long roof and fastback tailgate transforms the looks, I reckon they're much nicer than the slightly hump-backed coupe. BTW, did anyone see what the '76 Galant 2dr went for? Off road for 20 years or so, no MoT, £1171 reserve not met. 1600 auto powerhouse too! Lovely looking car though.

I'd think there's plenty of cars earlier than '62 with rear discs. Maybe it was the first small economy car with discs all round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
