I had one Ford Fiesta, a mk2 XR2 in white, was a nice car, was a trade in car on a faster car that I had for sale, sold it in a short time, those cars were desirable those days.

I have no idea anymore how it felt during the time I owned it and drove it till the sale was done.

wow, another model car I did not spot with those rear lights, I guess there are at least 7 to 10 car models (also different brands) using those rear lights, ala de Tomaso Pantera (bad memorie here) and many many other cars I've seen the last few years with such.

I’m trying to work it out, several of those are not like the others; are we talking about Celica’s, Lancia, Honda, Datsun, we need a clue.

It's a Maserati, not a Lancia, and it's Italian not Japanese which, I suspect, is the difference suggested.

I accidentally mistook the back end of the 3Rd Gen Toyota Celica for a Lancia Beta Montecarlo.

Doofus's car nerding is like having Brian Lara on your Sunday pub team! Has he ever been defeated?

That yellow Datsun roadster on the left is fantastic!
