@pip-bip seems to me, busier and less impressive than some of the earlier DS stuff

@pip-bip Ooh, that color. Thanks to my internship of sorts in Montana, I've managed to see a Traction Avant and I was seriously impressed. A very oddly proportioned car but nevertheless a striking one.

excellent

@streetsofperth said in late night oppo:

@pip-bip Such a shame that homologation specials aren't really a thing anymore.

You can buy a C3 Rally2, it's still better than nothing.

@pip-bip GIB!! Damn it. I'm neither in a position to buy another car, nor travel to Queensland. Despite the usual shitty Gumtree pictures, it looks so clean.

@pip-bip She's got style.

@streetsofperth I hope so too, thanks for the compliment! 🙂

@rallydarkstrike i'd like to see them out here. in RHD

@whoistheleader I hope somebody restores it....it doesn't look too far gone and they are such a special and unique car they deserve to stay original to me! 😞

A quick glance of the thumbnail mande me think why did you post a Kia Optima...

god that is such a nice photo. i think i saw one once in that bronzey color, up near the tan/botanical gardens.

@streetsofperth I’d be happy if it got up to 60km/h

@streetsofperth yes they were, when Chinese Lady started ranting.

@pip-bip Good night.

@wbizarre mesmerizing

And unfortunately, Loeb and Elena partnership has ended.

@pip-bip Good night.

@distraxi yessss

@krustywantout not to mention that it's a 50 years old prototype.

@pip-bip Woah, GIVE ME NOW! I don't think I'd be content for just a photo at that distance if it weren't at a private residence. I'd want to find the owner and get the story.

@pip-bip the 1.4D was an aluminium block that had it's head gasket updated at some point of it's life to avoid some failures.
The 1.5D that was slightly more powerful and had an iron cast block and most of the reliability issues of the 1.4D fixed.

One of my brother had a 1.5D and it was no slouch for the little power it had (keep in mind that they are around 750-800kg) and incredible mileage (something like 4.5L/100km AKA 52MPG on mixed driving), it was this color :

@darkbrador it can save you if you got a puncture or a sudden road rage.
