Talbot Samira maybe???

ianobrien · 26-02-2019 3:25pm

No I'm wrong. Talbot Tagora is what I was thinking of .

26-02-2019 3:41pm

Fair play ianobrien. I was looking for Talbot Horizon and 1510 pictures but they didn't quite match. There was something Chrysler about it and Talbot/Chrysler shared some stuff in early 80's.

It was the swage line that gave it to me and the hint of square wheel arch. The rubbing strip reminded me of 80's Ford's though, but the shape wasn't quite right.

Anyway, as I've nothing ready (and won't for a while) somebody who has something ready can take it

Opel Monza?

porsche boy · 26-02-2019 10:44pm

I'm gonna say Opel Rekord

I’d say you’re right.

Who?

it definitely looks like a Monza to me. Less curved lights than the rekord.

colm_mcm · 26-02-2019 11:08pm

Er... whichever one is right.

Tacitus Kilgore · 26-02-2019 11:10pm

Just a case of working through the mutations 'till someone found the right one...

Speaking of mutations, anyone want to tell me what this is

Corolla Saloon?

alias no.9 · 27-02-2019 2:22pm

Afraid not... embedding the image properly

colm_mcm · 27-02-2019 3:52pm

Door handle looks Toyota. Is it an Etios?

Actually... fuel cap on wrong side...

pablo128 · 27-02-2019 3:58pm

Yaris saloon.

colm_mcm · 27-02-2019 4:00pm

Could be a Kia Rio saloon too.

alias no.9 · 27-02-2019 5:43pm

Nowhere close with marques or market segment

ianobrien · 28-02-2019 9:34am

That door handle is annoying me. I first thought of that DS saloon thing that was for sale on the continent but now I don't think so.

I think that's correct. Look at the roof line and the shape of the quarter light window.

Tacitus Kilgore · 28-02-2019 9:42am

I thought it was a C5 at first, but definitely isn't, the DS sounds about right!

alias no.9 · 28-02-2019 10:14am

Well done, the clue was in the first post where I described it as a mutant, it's the DS5-LS

Not quite a saloon version of the DS5 but a saloon version of the DS4-S which is a longer wheelbase DS4.

It seems that when you mix the French and the Chinese, you get buckets of crazy.

ianobrien · 28-02-2019 12:40pm

Geez that's gas! It was a total stab in the dark and it worked!

I won't have anything until later on tonight so if someone has something ready they can go ahead.

Shocking like a Fiat 131 coupe... Escort RS2000?

PauloMN · 01-03-2019 1:21pm

It's screaming Ford Escort Mk II 2 door, but the Germany thing is throwing me....

Some escorts were built in Germany, including the mk2

I'm going to say yes as it's a 2 door Escort Ghia. I got lazy and took a picture of my own car in the garage. There's nothing to tell the 2 door Ghia and the RS2000 apart from that photo. The vinyl roof was fitted to both, both have tinted glass and the headrests were the same.

I knew the German built thing may throw people but that particular car was built in Koln, according to the chassis number (starts with GCAT....)

Edit, the full photos can be seen in the detailing forum.

The speed and accuracy of answers here always surprises me. This was the first time I ever saw one of these. Very stupid looking yoke.

Yup. Made me think why would somebody want to drive something that looks like a joke bodykit on a very normal little car. I read Aston Martin made it to meet average emissions targets across their range.
