martc Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Any ideas? It looks familiar, I can't get Peugeot out of my mind, but that tends to spelt horizonatally, not diagonally, and that flourish above the letters.... Grandma looks happy.

Given that most other stuff was rusting BL stock then they cleaned up. Corollas there had no badging other than on the boot. No heater either - just a fan and, if you was posh, air con - so the 'heat' dial had no red segment. DSdriver, MiniMinorMk3 and sdkrc 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian_pt Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 UK Embassy in Bucharest, 1958. All familiar stuff apart from the vans, which look like Austins - are they? RayMK and Dyslexic Viking 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's interesting. They do look Austin-based, but clearly not the usual Papworth woodies. I'd guess locally-bodied in Romania, but I can't find anything online about Romanian Austin estate cars, funnily enough. Adrian_pt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't have the same tail fins either. Quite odd. Also the headlamps are slightly recessed from the very front. Its a bit like a Renault Floride but it doesn't have anything to show its rear engined, plus looked a bit smaller than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
