The OP kicked this off with a Mitsubishi Colt... Just remembered I saw a video where Hubnut reviewed a Mitsubishi Colt (aka Mirage) with the Mitsubishi Super Shift transmission.
So, a late 70s small hatchback with an 8-speed (4-speed with a range splitter) manual; rare edition?

That's amazing! Modern car designers need to take note how crisp, clean and clear that dash baord is!So, a late 70s small hatchback with an 8-speed (4-speed with a range splitter) manual; rare edition?

Naturally aspirated, I expect. Non-turbo (i.e. mega slow) diesel.The Gordini got a 106bhp 1.5 DCi Turbo diesel with a 6 speed box. It’s a great engine/box/car combo.
Renault haven’t put a non turbo derv in a car since the 90’s I think.

Probably twice the cost of a normal funeral/burial. My godfather had an eco burial (woodland, cardboard coffin) - worked out significantly cheaper than a traditional burial (coffins are expensive).

Don't know if it's been mentioned but Toyota Yaris grmn
1.8 supercharged
6 speed manual with lsd
4 pot front brakes
17" forged BBS alloys
Sachs suspension
Gr bucket seats, gt86 steering wheel
Rear exhaust based on wrc rally car
All came white with red/black gr graphics although I removed all of mine so it was all white added even more to the unknown nature of the car
1150kg kerb weight iirc
600 world wide 100 came to the uk
I had one last year I think had a thread on here. Genuinely great to drive and being Toyota was reliable (did need a clutch at 13k miles but down to previous owner riding it)
I enjoy it more over a b road than my a45 I got to replace it with.
When used car prices soften I'll prob grab another one
