Good grief what a twit, if it was a SSS U12 or one of those Attessa's or whatever they were called it MIGHT attract some interest.Its only a base model of a very mediocre model of car.

Yep what I was going to say ^^ exactly the same situation as the corolla, a poverty spec car that is only a poor imitation of the model that anyone would actually want

Even that not-so-classic Corolla was more of a classic than a 88 Bluebird.
And the only looks would have been people trying to figure out what the hell was so special about this piece of s**t. Seriously what were the organizers thinking letting it in there.
Unless the owner was like Spike and just had a major b**ch fit at them until they let his 'super duper classic super duper rare collectors item rarer than aliens' car into the show.

"A real head turner at the 2012 4 'N Rotary Show at Ellerslie "
Quite right. I'd look at it because I'd wonder what relevance it had. They were never cool, nor did every other kid have one like the MK2 Escort he touted. Worth maybe $3k because its tidy.

probably got the worng address & mistook a lot of cars parked together in Ellerslie & didnt realised it was actually a supermarket car park, ppl would have looked then by putting a rope barrier around a very common car

The 4 'N Rotary Show is the worst show on the planet, I'd burn my car before admitting my it was near that place. A celebration of all things slammed on the bumpstops that can hardly move.

Its a bunch of used crap covered in the finest rice that borrowed money and poorly thought out financial decisions can buy.

Or its not a four or a rotary,begging the question "why bother calling it that!"

It's an as-new example of an old car that you can be sure no-one else will have bothered preserving.
SO yes, I can imagine it getting a bit of attention at a Jap car show.
I can't imagine anyone wanting to spend significant money on it though.
