rtsbusman1997 ◊ 2016-12-08 09:56	Datsun or Toyota, it appears.
the sad biker ◊ 2016-12-08 12:16	Corona or Cressida?

The plate looks like CPC/CPD/CPG/CPO with the first three being Guildford series with Y in 1983. The difficult thing is untangling what's going on at the C-pillar (1st thumb) - it's not an extra window behind the door and the quarterlight line is vertical - so Corona/Camry/Cressida versions don't fit. But the fiddly detail on the Carina (T)A60 with vertical corner piece and a shiny name badge does (I think) fit - /vehicle_141263-Toyota-Carina-TA60-1982.html , http://www.drift-france.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=133&t=17625 , Link to "www.banpei.net" along with the slightly forward sloping rear profile.
