Another Acclaim, however an auction for a slightly more rusty (but more beige) 1984 L.

That CD is great. Hnnnggg.

 

The number plate means you'd call it ROHY.

 

electric rear windows in 1983, man!

 

I'm thinking about using G101 on that front door card already.

Perfect for doing your bit in making England's motorways look like they did circa 1991. Mk3 Granada Ghia automatic with no bids so far.

Q) Can you actually buy a car that looks like your jeans after they faded in the wash?

I had to Google this.

The spectacularly unsuccessful rotary engined Mazda Roadpacer Anti Pollution from 1975.

A 1.5 ton 1300cc car which did 9mpg.

Based on the Holden Premier, looks a bit like a FE Victor if you screw your eyes up and look at it from the next room.

What a find :-)

 

Wonder what they were like to drive. Reportedly very little torque so must have just been all revs all the time. Nice. Automatic trans too. Presumably (hopefully) 3 speed rather than 2.

At one point someone with a lot of power must have said "Hey, stop what you're doing, let's build these instead".

 

Asking price is $59,950 NZ dollars. Is that a lot? Fuck knows.

 

Quote from Wiki

"Most were sold to government departments and were later crashed, meaning Roadpacers are rare nowadays".

Sounds like a fun job for a Monday. Gizzajob, I can do that.
