PH car detectives

[davemac250]

I'm looking for ideas on a car I'm trying to track.

It is a people carrier, the only clear view I've got of it is from the rear

It has light clusters up the sides of the rear window part of the hatch and a fully squared off back.

Looks (from the very poor side angle) to be an older car not something like a Mazda 5 or s-max.

Bigger than a Mazda Premacy.

Ideas anyone? It has an air of a jap import.

I can't put the pics up.

It's easy, you might want to figure it out. Likely to make a world of difference to your thread

[davemac250]

No.

I cannot put the pics up.

Not, I don't know how to put the pics up.

Still, nice try.

Little up date, the rear looks similar to a C8. However the front lights are horizontal not like the C8 ones at all.

Mitsubishi Grandis?

What's preventing you?

Its not an Espace is it?

[davemac250]

Ongoing investigation and the fact that the footage from CCTV is on a format the standard work computer won't work with.

I can't even post on forums from them so have to use my phone.

Someone has suggested a proton.

Honda Stream?

[davemac250]

Looks like the stream but has square windows at the rear.

Proton made something called the exora. Can't be that the front is wrong.

Front end looks like an American thing I used to see that had sliding doors. Wind star? Or something.

Can't say I'm up on people carriers!

[davemac250]

No. Not a full glass back

Is like the Honda stream but with square windows.

Also have just found out it is a RHD. Suspect seen getting out of the drivers seat on that side.

Sorry this is pretty much being updated constantly.

Take a picture of the security camera monitor with your iphone?

Do it a couple of times - tap on the screen before taking the pic to get the focus.

Email photo to yourself, upload to PH.

[davemac250]

Yep.

Not much luck with pics of the arse end though.

Hopefully I'll get some stills at some point today.

Town Ace?

Round our way the popular Jap import people carriers are the Mazda Bongo (i kid you not) and a Toyota that looks like a Previa, but a bit different.

Might be worth finding out who the local Jap import specialists are in your area and seeing what the most popular models they bring in are.

Mitsubishi Grandis?

Honda smx.
Or Stepwagon

[davemac250]

Close. But it's bigger.

Think of a mitsubishi space wagon front end with the rear of a Citreon C8 but longer and lower roof line.

It has rear 3/4 windows like the stream, but squared off not oval to the rear.
