    And what's the relationship between "Rover" and Land Rover? And isn't there also something called Range Rover?
    Range Rover is a model made by Land Rover, seen here:
    88 Town Car (wrecked, for sale)
    Walker OEM duals with muffler deletes

        Opel Omega :p That ain't no car tho, that's a freakin tank - all the offroading shit we put our sedan though, and still ran like a champ
        1993 Vauxhall Calibra 2.0 (same chassis as that Cavalier GSI on the first page)
        You sure it's the same chassis as the Vectra? Cause they sure handle like way different cars...

          Now that's what I call a car, one of my all-time favorites

          1996 Vauxhall Omega 3.0 Elite ( Cadillac Catera in the US)
          newer Opel Omega, decent car... older ones were better tho, and the Caddi Catera is just a POS, go figure

            Vauxhall is now ran by GM, but all the models he posted are actually re-badged german Opels, including said Nova that ain't nothing but an Opel Corsa.

                You guys have some strange looking cars on the other side of the pond, Festerfly. I have enjoyed your pictures so far and I hope you post more. Some of them are kind of ugly by American standards, but I guess some of our cars are ugly by your standards as well. Do you, or have you, own(ed) a Panther yet?

                BTW, you guys bet the coolest Volkswagons in Europe. They only send us weakened, watered down versions. I love VW almost as much as I love Ford, though I have not owned a vW yet. Not sure if ownership would strenghthen or weaken my feelings toward them.

                      The Gremlin and Pacer look strange to us too. Mostly everyone thinks those are weird.
