chris40 ◊ 2013-03-04 12:31	I can understand that ... but I grew up with them, and maybe nzcarnerd did too. (Doesn't mean he's as old as me - cars last longer in NZ )
nzcarnerd ◊ 2013-03-06 04:34	Ha ha Chris40, even though I was born just a few years after this car was new there were plenty of them on the road as I was growing up. Until the deregulation of the economy in the 1980s and the loosening of import restrictions they were a common sight.
