Ford Flex - didn't know they existed til I saw one ont the road yesterday.

I think it may be the love child of a Range Rover and a Bini Clubman?

Lots of these in the Dubai.
I've seen pictures on the US websites, never been able to work out how big it is.
Seeming Ford owned JLR, I'd imagine it's the RRS chassis with a Ford dress on.
Saw loads of these in NY last week. They are about the same size as a RRS (albeit, a little lower)
I have a Ford Flex. It has 3 rows of seating and all but the drivers seat fold flat with the tug of a strap. The middle row can the fold out of the way by pressing a burton. It's amazingly practical, but it's not a looker.

Whilst fawning over some Kei cars this week, I stumbled over this.



Apparently, it's a rebadged Mazda Autozam-1 (which I was aware of) called the Suzuki Cara (which I wasn't aware of).

Good bump - I've missed this thread.
There's one of those local to me, at first glance I thought it was some horrible Indian rip-off of an LR like that little Jeep* looking thing from the 90's. But it's seems they're a Spanish version of the LR made under licence.



  • Jeep as in Willys / Ford 'Jeep' not the Chrysler brand before all the Jeep nutters jump on me.

Axiom Mega Track:



Sort of giant, luxury off-road supercar. Think they only made a handful...slightly niche, so not surprising really!

That's an intriguing one in terms of platform sharing within the PSA group as it's obviously a Pug 206 with a Citroen face nailed on.

Yeah, why make that when they could have sold the actual Citroen C2 in China (or C1, or C3) ?? confused

Whoa!

Pretty sure I penned that on the back cover of my English Lit exercise book c. 1975.

Saw this from behind last night and thought it was the ugliest thing I'd ever seen. And it got worse as I saw more of it.

A Sassonyonggg something-a-rather. Got no idea who would ever look at that and think they might want to be seen in it.

Name another MPV that will carry 7 people AND their luggage?

Well, at least being in it means there's one less that your poor eyes are likely to see.

The VW Amorak, never knew these existed until one went past work at the weekend:

Great car, the most comfy pick-up i've ever tried.
Winner of the most under-wheeled vehicle ever.
