Shite Brochure Scans - Civic, Quintet, Cherry, Urvan, Vanete

That Falcon S... Mmmmm.

[STUNO]

I have had 2 Falcons of that model. Big lazy barges, mine were both carburettor engines and were lovely on a long trip, one had LPG so was reasonably economical too. Also had the Mazda 323 same as the Laser, went well in 1300 manual form, even with a small boat on the back.

I loved my Falcon, it was so shit it was awesome.

 

Nice to see you back on here btw

1985 Citroen range. If you're wondering what is going on with the front cover, it says "Wooooosh" across 3 pages, which was a bit pointless to scan in. Not enough dashboard shots for my liking, although you do get a handy MPG chart.

WHUT? A 2CV CANT DO 75! LOLZ!!1!!

 

 

 

Next we have the Chrysler/Matra/Whatever they were called that week Rancho. Not much info here, but it does fold into a 3 part poster. Which obviously would look great on your wall, hence its position below my 1985 Nissan poster/brochure, whose fold out nature has thus far precluded a successful scan

I never knew the facelifted Visa was available with the 652 engine. I wonder if any survive?

[Negative Creep]

Did they even sell any?

I never knew the facelifted Visa was available with the 652 engine. I wonder if any survive?

Yep, called the "Visa II Special". I own one, and we (on the Visa Forum) know of 9 to survive - you can see them here.

Ok, time for an update, starting with the Civic. Always liked this shape and they can still be picked up for relatively little. "Great" colour selection as well

 

 

 

Now the Quintet. I can only presume the name refers to the number that were actually sold in the UK. As with the Civic, GR8 colour selection

 

 

 

Now some more Nissans, starting with the invitation to pick up a cherry. It's a very subtle play on words, since the Cherry is the name of a fruit and the car, and you pick fruit ROFLZ!!! Get it? Pick fruit, pick a car?

 

 

 

The Urvan, which must have been a rare thing even when new

 

 

 

Finally the Vanette. Having owned one they were very handy, although only designed for people 5 foot tall

These are great, thanks for posting!

 

Do any of those Urvans still exist? I haven't seen one for years...

There were a few around back in the day, I suspect those that survived abuse and rust were exported - the similar size and era Toyota makes silly money due to popularity in South Africa.
