Also, how long has Japan been a Western nation?

Understandable, just changed it to "non-soviet".

Is the steering that vague that it needs a compass in front of the speedo?

I have a thing for mark 1 Cavaliers at the moment, especially with RoStyle wheels. I always thought that my mum and dad should have bought one of these in 1.6 or 2.0 form when in 1986 the Royale 2.8 had to be sold due to high running costs.

That one was up for sale last year, seems a bit off to me

That's in my village (Outwell) and has sat outside the local filling station (sellers are based out the back) for ages wearing a hopelessly optimistic £5995 price in the windscreen.  How they've managed to make it look roughly one colour in the photos I don't know; it certainly doesn't in the flesh!

My dad had one as a company car - hated it! Every time you drove through a puddle it conked out. He was over the moon when they came through with a Cortina instead.

Not vague, just unnervingly light. I had a long conversation with the previous owner of that car a while back, as he wanted to buy my 404. He is a Norwegian and that was his wedding car in Norway, he had it for 15 years or something and drove it to the UK when he moved here. I think it might even have been his first car which is pretty cool.

I'm no expert on these, but the image of a Badger's rear end has just come to my mind.

I hope you're referring to the terminally-rusty blue estate and not the carefully-preserved, aged-like-a-fine-wine 99% rust-free hatchback which anyone on this forum would be proud to own?
