Can't be many places which got Vauxhall, Opel and Holden. ingo wrote New Zealand. The Opels there are used imports from Japan. And they have Isuzu and Daewoo, too. All these version of the GM T-Car I've seen there in 1998.

HD came as Standard (poverty), Special (middle-class) and Premier (stinking rich) versions. This looks basic enough to be Standard.
