Brasilian built Escort with minilites.

Whoa, an LX! The amount of Dinitrol it must have taken to preserve that thing… they pretty much dissolved like wet newspaper, didn’t they?
 

Renault engine as well, from memory. One of Ford’s weirder stunts.

They sure love their Subarus in northern Sweden

I feel a little bit dirty and I need to wash myself, but I just had to take a picture of this immaculate 240 GL from 1992.

[Nibbler]

So, back to some for me more normal photo objects.

A well kept Mercedes 123 limousine. New import by the looks of the registration number.  A rare sight here in Sweden, especially the south. 
 

Most of them had a hard life as school taxis, under 1,000,000 kms is considered low mileage. They often ended up as party mobiles in the hands of youngsters.  

Like this.

323 1,3 from 1995 and a Automatic Atos.
