Visiting Kyushu, Japan. I have to say the cars here are probably the most boring boxes I have seen. I see more interesting Japanese sports cars at meets in the UK. Maybe, we are in the wrong place but the number plates here are quite interesting and I think more information rich then ours

Or even a CJ or Lacoste!

My Mum had a CJ Convertible - denim interior. I used to scoot around in that as a young lad - looked the dogs

It’s a Metro Thomas not a 205

Wife had a perfect MG Metro, black etc which was quite nice, just that buzzzzzing A Series and the 4 speed box.
Noises, but real fun below 60 mph, only just better than the light Citroen AX before it which was mega basic.

Citroen AX
Such a fab little thing. 640kg for a whole 4 seat car that’s 20% bigger than a mini.
