I could be wrong but I think all the "+E" cars were badged "Formel E".

4+e boxes are generally regarded as more economical as they have longer gearing so make ideal motorway cruisers, but acceleration is usually slower.

I fitted one to my Scirocco as I was doing a lot of motorway miles and it increased economy as doing 70ish on the motorway was about 3k rpm instead of 3600rpm .... The thing was you had to rev the hell out of the engine to get decent acceleration. Changing it back to a close ratio 5spd is still on my to do list.

Richard - they fitted 4+e boxes to various things without badging them formel-e

When I first met my Spottieottiedopaliscious Angel

I can remember that damn thing like yesterday

(Look great with the small bumpers these things)

The way she moved, reminded me of a Brown Stallion -

horse with skates on, smooth like a hot comb on nappy ass hair

I walked up on her, & was almost paralyzed

her neck was smelling sweeter than a plate of yams, with extra syrup

eyes beaming like four karats apiece just blindin' a nigga

felt like I chiefed a whole O of that Presidential, my heart was beating so damn fast!

never knowing this moment - would bring another life - into this world

Nice bin-bag styling accessory there, how on earth could anyone think that looks good?

That Taunus is an oddball.

Looks like the bastard child of a Hillman Hunter, Audi 100 and an Opel Rekord.

I've always liked that generation of Taunus. It was a fair bit bigger than the Cortina, IIRC, so perhpas we should have got that instead of the Mk4 Zephyr? I think both were replaced by the Granada. As for being officially imported, I think not. I'm pretty sure it had to be a special-order. Look at the big Opels of the period too: Germany was actually getting it right.

Freddie: couldn't agree more!

Summer of 1982, and the car is HWM 916F, the first automatic I owned and was able to actually use. 1725, single carb, and doors in an assortment of colours.

Yugos are bloody rubbish. A family friend was a franchise holder for these in the 80s. He used to count the days off on the calendar until the warranties were up. My next door neighbour bought a new one from him, and the engine seized in a week (oil pump failure). It shed its passenger door on the M2 Belfast bound, the sunroof blew off. It was killed by an electrical fire.
