There's a 1600 wagon that gets around my area once in a while, I think it's owned by one of the guys who owns/runs/works at SSS automotive...

But not all Reliants were so crap.... the Scimitar had the 3litre Essex V6 (man & Auto), in a 'glass body, and went faster than Capri

Then there was the Volvo P1800ES..... very cute, and strangely it didn't seem to be such a nuisance on the road as other Volvos!

AND...... in my book the best of them all the Lamborghini Espada from 1970.

Displacement was 3929cc thanks to a bore and stroke of 82 x 62mm, the Bizzarrini-designed V12 producing 325bhp at 6500rpm. A compression ratio of 9.5:1 and six twin-choke Weber 40 DCOE 20-31 sidedraught carbs were used, (imagine tuning this!!) but even though this motor incorporated many of the period upgrades made to Miura's, output was slightly down because of the larger air-conditioning units and power brake requirements of this luxury GT. However, despite its size and 1625kg weight, Lamborghini’s zany new model instantly became the fastest full four seater on the planet.

If you look carefully the tailgate is 1/2 glass, cos the window is so raked that you only had about 6" to look through..... I could put up with it though.

Boasting a 155mph top speed, 0-60 took just 6.4 seconds,

hey that's nearly as fast a Stagea.... :laughing-smiley-014:

AND we worry about economy!! haha

While we're doing ol' skool Japanese wagons, why not more Corollas?

This one's copping an SR20DET conversion:

Apparently this one's a bush taxi:

And how's this recent one? Looks like an AE100-series.

Awww, Dale, that cuts me to the bone! I love my 'Rolla's. Not as much as Stagea's, obviously, but they do hold a place in my heart.

Huh, where?

I have no idea what it is, and I think I like it that way....

Me thinks that's a Chevy Impala or one of its stablemates
