Toyota Camry Executive: Base model with automatic gearbox, air conditioning and power steering. You didn’t even get hubcaps on your “executive” car.

Meanwhile, the UK Executive was the fancy pants trim on Carina II, Corolla and Camry.

I prefer "your" taillights though. "Ours" look a but half arsed. Why did they change them?

UK/European cars required a redesigned taillight arrangement to fit a rear fog lamp and to accommodate your very long number plates. Australian and American cars use the original Japanese design.

Almost every caravan and camper van ever produced. 

Pioneer, adventurer, Swift, Ace, Diplomat, Sahara.... 

 

Should be : Damp, Mildew, Layby, Piss bucket, Cleethorpes, deckchair, powdered milk. 

I think the accepted protocol is to prefix every caravan name with the word "anal".

Anal Pioneer, Anal Ace, Anal Swift, Anal Sahara, oh...

I loved my Carisma, just a shame that the Renault diesel engine kept having the attacks of the random (and ultimately un-fathomable) limp mode.

It was a very well designed and ergonomic family and kit hauler.

I'd have another. Plus I love the curvy lines of the face lift, pictured.

is the green one electric or have they favoured style over cooling

Off topic but I really like the 110, but the rear wheels are in the wrong place. Needs a bigger arch 6" further forward

In fact now I look again, the whole body is 6" too far forward compared to the "chassis"
