Default Possible replacement for the '75?

Should the unthinkable ever happen and my Baby met her end, I may just have found a possible replacement. It won't be to everyones taste, but I really like it - it puts me in mind of the old Morris Oxford/Austin Cambridge of the '60's.

Quite expensive though, and it would have to be imported from China.

You're all going to hate it, I know

I like it, something different isn't it. If you can afford it go for it, I'll look forward to the pics

It weighs 6,950lbs. It is 18ft long, 6.5ft wide and 5ft tall.
You will need a bigger car port with reinforced concrete floor.

Good point. Such a shame, it would have looked good parked up at the Ugly Duckling .

It looks like a Chrysler 300C that has been in a head on collision with a Triumph Herald.

I like it


Not the prettiest Car but it has some bold design touches and stands out from the crowd
