That G63 is the most pointless thing ever, why not just buy a Mack truck, at least you can put a nice haulage behind it if the need arises.

A month later and I finally have a moment to go through some pics from Vancouver, I'll post more as I go through them

The owner of that Tesla S 85 dropped to my place today.
I was surprised to actually discover a nice car. A lot of room. Very nice interior. The screen size still baffles me, but why not. It does its job.











Quick video too

Looks live a extra large tablet stuck to the dash.

Quite a few raptors and big pick ups around where I live, surprising because the fuel prices are high. Wealthier country I guess.

Ok, I'll bite. Where is it?

Is it a Dutch plate on the raptor?

shortys94

Netherlands, yes! Living here two years now and love the high end cars they have, especially the Teslas being everywhere, government bought a whole batch for taxis.

Other than that I do notice a lot of great cars around, big engines. Must start taking a few more for thread. The raptor is two doors down from me.

jozi

They never really did the big car small engine like over here, maybe that's why I don't think a 2I is a big engine

Hachiko

are second hand cars still very expensive in the nl? compared to say uk/Irl?

Supergurrier

08 or so 4.2 V8 XFs are coming down in price in the uk.

Interesting

Here's some cars I've seen so far in Brazil. Nothing crazy but interesting to see some older cars that are no longer popular on Irish roads. Lots of Uno's everywhere, older Opels (Chevrolet) such as Omega, Ascona, Kadett. Corsas are everywhere in various guises and with various facelifts. Small pickups are popular as are 3 door estates (with builders, farmers etc.). Lot of cars (esp. Bigger ones) have both petrol and gas (LPG?), and I think all newer ones take ethanol or petrol. Ethanol is cheaper and I haven't noticed any difference.

More pics to come probably.

Mostly phone pics as its easier and less obvious than a DSLR.





Lots of lowered cars around, usually awful little corsa's. This wasn't too bad.

Dord

First and last VW's are Brasilia's. The hatch in the middle is a Parati I think? The grey Fiat is a facelifted Uno.

Yea fuel and cars seemingly a lot more to run here from what I can see but again I think just because there's more money and they really look after the cars.

Never been no!

I see a lot of big vans too, the big Chevy ones which must have at least four litre engines. The hospital I work at has two Chevy trucks as standard ambulances, huge engines, seems nonsenicle to me

And this in a carpark in France. A Citroen C4 Saloon.

While on the Citroen theme, heres another yoke I saw there. Made by Axiam ad has a 250cc engine I think ( Very small anyway ) and it was for sale at a Stihl dealer.

C4 mini anyone?



With Peugeot 308 tail lights



Or a micro mini??

You could have just asked me!!! From the assumptive conclusions you have reached, am I to assume that I am not a sane person?
