MK 2 Alfa Romeo Alfasud.

I got very excited, then:

"A few tiny bubbles on the wings but 2 x Wings supplied. The photos speak for themselves . These is truly a rare iconic car. The engine that is in it is stuck and the previous owner sourced a brand new 1.5 Engine. The car is complete and has been sitting up for some years. It would not take much to get her back up to a stunning example"

Interesting. I don't remember pleather being fitted to any standard model, and the fwood (looks real, actually) dash is a new one on me. 

It doesn't look completely giffer so I wonder if this was one of those aftermarket styling house jobs...? 

Edit: Rover 200 VDP seats?

I would say boss-level giffer. Very probably forked out LOTS of cash for the various bespoke interior mods; the pre-73 plates, scale model on the dash, painted badges and extra decals by the front door jamb are hallmarks of the Giffer who Can't Stop Fiddling With Their Car.

I kinda love it.

That is fantastic. The first thing I thought of when I saw the wood trim is the Carnoisseur accessory books from the late 1980’s where they sold wood trim like this. It does not explain the leather though. I think someone has really looked after and loved this car. I looked up Carnoisseur and they are still going but nowhere near as fantastic as they used to be, I wish I knew where my old Carnoisseur catalogues are.

That is one hell of a find. Chevanne survivors must be in single digits, surely?

Now this is an unusual find outside the US, a first generation Toyota Avalon. Built in Kentucky but this one was imported from Japan where it was exported to.

Being made after 1999 would make it an Australian built example.

£2850 - Swift limited edition?!

I thought that might be a 'dealer special' so looked it up and it was. Bristol Street motors added the stripes and the sunroof. The actual car in the advert is on the internet page referencing that model

Do you remember the Ford Sierra Swift special edition? | Petrolblog
