I thought I'd seen it before. Will be in the audience for HIGNFY this Thursday.

That’s pretty terrible even for two strokes. What’s the mix 1:1?

Looks like the days after the Wall came down.

Note how the other side of the road is empty as the Ossi streamed West.

They wandered about for a few days looking lost, then started to drift home.

 

Normal smoke levels for Trabant's 50:1 mix of old sock oil and Ossi "petrol" .

They did put a version of the PRV V6 in the Tagora, but not many were made - not sure we ever had them in the UK.

Back then, whenever it was, I was working at a car hire company.   Alongside the usual Fords, we had Horizons and Alpines.  The Talbot rep. used to visit, and try to sell us more of these things.  The forthcoming new secret luxury model was talked about and was referred to as the "Savoy."  Just a code name I guess, never heard it elsewhere, but I was a bit disappointed when it appeared as Tagora.
