Just spotted a 70s Vauxhall Firenza drirving past on the M/way. Haven't seen one or heard one mentioned for a long time. Couldn't be that many left here in NZ.

Theres a couple getting round Palmy

whqqsh, May 2, 7:02am
My last car was a Borgward Goliath Kombi (only one left regd in NZ) & now the one off Telstar ute (although thats a modified) & the old EL 'coon looks nothing special but is a V8 Fairmont wagon, only 10 bought over here & supposedly 6 left on the road.
I like stuff a bit different

That hardly surprises, there would have been very few Firenzas here even when the were new, GM didn't assemble them locally. That bodyshell was quite different to the stock 2 door HC Viva, had the Victor OHC motors and drivetrains too.

Saw a Datsun 1200 ? sss, driving along the motorway today, looked quite good too,

I saw a Firenza for sale in Gracious Motors over in the late '90s. Pretty quick cars back in the day with the Droop Snoop.

whqqsh, May 2, 9:46am
so how many of those were Goliath Kombis? only 1 I'll bet

poppy62, May 2, 10:09am
Yep fairly quick for their day. 125MPH and 0=60mph in 8secs,

poppy62, May 2, 10:13am
It's actually really nice to see the cars of yesteryear getting around especially the rarer ones and they certainly stick out like a beacon amongst all the modern day clones.

poppy62, May 3, 1:20am
Rare Car of the day (Saturday) just passed one in Pukekohe. 70s . Lancia Fulvia i.6 HF Coupe. Absolutely brilliant little car shame they were prone to rust.

zak410, May 3, 1:28am
Saw a Renault Caravelle in Northland.

nzjay, May 3, 1:47am
Can you tell me how many Wolseley 6/99 there are left? I have a 1961 model. I understand there are only 35 left in England, so getting pretty rare.

poppy62, May 3, 2:00am
Really cool little car that, one of Renaults prettiest.

I have a Toyota Corolla. Can you tell me. (I don't but you get the idea. )

jrlaw, May 3, 5:19am
6/110 in Palmerston North seem to remember it had smaller wheel than the others I had seen. Saw it the other day.

zak410, Feb 15, 9:01am
Yes but much too light in the front, I believe they used to flip like pancakes, great to see some didn't. I think the 4CV their cutest.
