The 206 GTI seems like a fun small family car, but this one might be a bit of a project. The vegetation and the tow strap are signs, although te car still looks pretty decent.

Pure Lancia DNA from before its recent takeover by Fiat was evident in the boxer-engined Lancia 2000, an evolution of the earlier Flavia, sold from 1971-5. This brochure shows the elegant fuel injected 125 bhp 2000HF (High Fidelity) coupé, designed and built for Lancia by Pininfarina. #carbluesky

The Mustang is Ford's best known coupe, but they've made some funky FWD coupes too. For the aquired taste...

The Renault Farma was unique to the Greek market, where locally-made utility vehicles had a tax advantage at the time. Launched in 1979, it was built by MAVA, the Renault importer for Greece, and based on the R4. With 845cc power, the model came in 2- and 4-seat versions. #weirdcarbs

I’m a bit less active as I crashed my MTB this weekend and ended up in hospital. Was out for about 3 minutes, broken rib, collar bone dislocated and all bruised, but luckily home again.

The US-built Plymouth Horizon was developed alongside its European Chrysler/Simca sibling, but ended up significantly different.The Plymouth (and its Dodge Owni twin) in this 1980 brochure had a 1.7-litre VW engine, typically American trim packages, plus its unique coupé version. #weirdcarbs 🧵

Poverty spec Saab 900 NG, with black bumpers, no windscreen wiper and close to no optional extras. These were quite a common sight here, but most have been long gone.

The Renault 5 with different logos 1. Early pre production 5 with classic logo. 2. First production 5’s had the Kent logo, quickly abandoned by Renault when Kent sued them for similarities to their logo. 3. Second attempt for a new logo, this time successful. 4. R5 Turbo 3E concept with current one

The 360 was quite popular for racing in the Netherlands. In the 2010s it had its own racing series, the ‘360 no Modena Cup’, providing low entry to racing. It did however had an impact on the number of 360s left and their prices 🙃

The Daf 400 was quite a common sight in the Netherlands when I was young. Always like these Sherpa-based vans, they look so much better then the less wide Sherpa and Daf 200.

The Citroën Type H (most commonly known as the HY) is one of the most recognizable vans ever made. Thanks to the corrugated body panels, the panels could be thinner and lighter without sacrificing strength. Front wheel drive meant huge and practical loading space. It was made from 1947 to 1982.
