'The thoroughbred is born' trumpeted this 1987 British brochure introducing the Citroën BX GTi 16 Valve. The new model's performance figures were impressive for the time, with a 135mph top speed and 0-60mph in under 8 seconds. #weirdcarbs

Renault 16 - CAR magazine 1979 #OldCarGBU verdict: Interesting👍

For: Armchair seats, armchair ride
Against: Steering heavy by latest standards, lots of roll
Sum-up: We're fervent fans although it's an old trooper

The Dacia Duster name first appeared in the early '80s in a low-key way in the UK, after a poor reception locally for Romania's other auto brand, the 4X4 specialist ARO. It was decided to regroup under the Dacia banner and find a new, alliterative name for the ARO 10. #weirdcarbs

Please enjoy this dignified Easter bank holiday Passat, in posh blue, chrome, and on tan leather.

'Viktor' 1996 Volvo 940 2.3LPT auto.

Well, I had a plan to get something else ready for Rustival, but it didn't work out. However, I am somewhat confident I have figured out the running/intermittent non-start this idiot has been having. So as long as parts arrive in time, this car may end up there after all.

Glickenhaus road car in NOLA

lol. Here's one for you #weirdcarBS

One of my high school ex's caught a Glickenhaus on dealer plates just outside the French Quarter and sent it to me to ID for her.

I was unaware that they were delivering customer cars. Haven't seen one in Houston yet.

Also unexpected Colorado #carspotter action with the Mexican plated Nissan van!

Saw some cool cars today :3 #weirdcar #weirdcars #weirdcarbs

Rover 75 parked in front of Heckington Windmill, the only remaining 8-sail windmill left in the UK.

It's a bank holiday, the sun is out, so what better thing to do than take the #Rover to a windmill for lunch.

Also proven fact L400 > L300

But did see this rare hybrid bird. Rogue Hybrid!

Picture looking through the empty interior of a 1971 Triumph Mk2 PI, which has a malfuctioning parking brake warning light due to a failed wire.

Picture showing the broken spade connector still fitted to the switch that screws on to the parking brake lever. There is supposed to be a cable on that...

Handbrake warning light "fun" on the #Triumph this bank holiday Mondaymeans a chunk of the interior coming out so I can fish the wire running under the carpet out - and repair it... 😬

UPDATED: A Volkswagen Beetle is hanging off this rock face in Squamish  - Gripped Magazine The Papoose, a well-loved mini-monolith, has been the subject of what’s likely an engineering students’ prank.

Quick run to the shops.

Booking her in next week to have the fuel gauge replaced, then she goes on sale.

Opel attempted to add a sporting flavour to the rather sober Rekord E with the special edition 1982 SR/E, seen in this West German brochure. The model featured spoilers, alloy wheels, Recaro seats and a black-painted lower body. Its 2.0E engine developed 110bhp. #weirdcarbs

Colorado also must be home to many Aspens. Just one of many spotted last week!

Ford Capri 1300 - CAR magazine 1979 #OldCarGBU verdict: Boring👎

For: Looks good, loads of dealers
Against: Cortina in drag
Sum-up: New model lifts standard but still quite harsh and noisy

A silver Coda Electric...well Coda. It is a generic looking late 2000s/early 2010s looking sedan with way too large wheels and a dent in the front left fender and bumper.

Hey so @agingwheels.bsky.social and all of #WeirdCarBS

I might have won rare car spotting for the day even over the people at the fancy Easter Sunday car meets

Of course the first place I should see the new Subaru Outback Wilderness (spared you all a view of the crazy grille) should be in Colorado.
