Just found my previous post.
Scion Opendeck .
I've never heard of it or seen one before, so I looked it up (as you do). I like it, the passenger side has a rear suicide door and no b pillar like an RX8, that's probably the only way it's like an RX8 Scion Opendeck .
. As 4 seat pickups go it's great, and it's RHD.Edit: not just suicide doors... The rear window and bulkhead open up

Not a car that I have never seen/heard of, but I had forgotten completely about them until last weekend when I saw one:
There was a GSI version of these sold in South Africa as well.RobinBanks said:

Wasnt the previous version of these called a Belmont
I said it first!Anecdotally someone in my year at school had a Belmont. He wrote it off after he removed the key coasting downhill and the steering lock engaged. He said he did this by mistake because he was laughing so much because his passenger had thrown a banana out of the window which struck a pedestrian in the face.

Since living out here in NZ, I've come across quite a few (I presume) Jap imports which we don't get back in the Uk. I don't really think we've missed out as they all seem pretty dull, but there are occasionally some really interesting ones (not necessarily below)
There are quite a few old Kei cars about like the Subaru Ace/Rex:
Hadn't come across a Nissan Lucino before one of our friends bought one
Delica's seem very popular, I knew about the older model you occasionally see in the Uk but not the latest model. Looks a bit like a hummer H3 mashed up with an old Ford Galaxy - pretty ugly!
The Ssangyong Actyon wins in the ugliness stakes though, god knows what they were thinking when they came up with this:

Oooh, I never knew that. Today's something new: tick.
