Awesome cars! Well, the first two anyhow, I'm not too familiar with the rest. I'd love to own a Sterling sometime! It's a shame Rover exited the US before the 600 series came around. I bet it would've sold like hotcakes. The 75 maybe even moreso.
I’m aware my buddy just got a 30k original mile eagle premier that I’m pretty jealous about also I’d love to get a merkur Scorpio but I think my next weird car will be a Peugeot 504 wagon

You would probably enjoy Aging Wheels on YouTube (if you don't know him yet)
GoNe2heLL@reddit
That Yugo looks pretty damn good for its age
EmergencySushi@reddit
Yes, but is it on fire? The difficult questions we all want a response to.
Weary-Sympathy-6347@reddit
I love the fact that my first response to that image was ‘a Yugo that’s on fire.’ And that didn’t seem unusual to me at all.
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
Actually no wait it is on fire again lemme go put it out
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
Not at this time
icybowler3442@reddit
The fire is too far away from it
lavardera@reddit
The fire is to keep your hands warm while you’re pushing it.

Oh, we’d be good friends
Howard_Cosine@reddit
These are the complete opposite of weird wheels ffs.
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
Go cry about it
Howard_Cosine@reddit
lol what?
tama_chan@reddit
That Nova is indestructible! What year is it?
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
1987
bosefius@reddit
My friend had one back in 1990(ish), to make a pass on the highway he would have to turn the AC off.
mini4x@reddit
Because its a Corolla.
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
It has a dropped valve currently so I’m gonna slap the 4a-ge from the prizm into it
sixerdad@reddit
That's a 87. My first car
tama_chan@reddit
Hell ya! I had and 86 as my first card. That thing wouldn’t die.

When Mazda badge engineered the Ranger I remember thinking, "Man, they sure made it ugly!"
But now, with many years of hindsight mellowing me, it is very much the better looking truck.
Otto_Harper@reddit
I love it. Reminds me of this recent mod for GT https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/gran-turismo-2-beige-edition.434402/
rockstar_not@reddit
Is the first one a sterling?
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
Yup it’s my current daily driver because my Lexus is broken
Dadd-Rad@reddit
I miss my 827 si! LOVED that car.
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
Great cars
bullet_theory92@reddit
As a Brit whose dad worked for Austin (Sterling) seeing a photo of one in America is a proper trip
mini4x@reddit
Sterling sold fairly well in the US even thought it was just a Hinda Accord but made worse.
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
The Sterling shares almost no parts with the Honda accord
fuseman1151@reddit
Drive train and chassis with the Acura Legend though. (And that's not a bad thing.) Loved these cars.
You need the Matchbox version of that Sterling now!
mob19151@reddit
Holy shit, where did you find a Sterling?
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
Facebook marketplace twice this is now my second time owning this exact car originally traded it for an ae86
mob19151@reddit
That's hilarious. Did you just come across it or did you seek the guy out?
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
It popped up on marketplace for 2800 and I hit him with a $500 lowball that he accepted
mini4x@reddit
You need a Geo Spectrum, or maybe a Storm. Or how about a Honda Crossroad, Maybe a Mazda Proceed, or a Suzuki Equator.
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
I would take the spectrum and maybe a cheap storm but fuck all the other cars
mini4x@reddit
Holden Drover, how about a Bedford Rascal?
drewid5185@reddit
If you exclude the last one I would say you have a type although the last one kind of applies too
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
What’s that type?
drewid5185@reddit
Late 80s early 90s midsized square body cars
mini4x@reddit
These are mostly the wrong brand of a decent car really...
drewid5185@reddit
Not saying that is a bad thing.. good era for common cars
RandomGuyDroppingIn@reddit
I had a Nova that looked just like that as my first car. It cost me $700 and a new set of tires. I can’t tell you the last time I saw one on the road.
Catatafish@reddit
Are you I'll???
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
What?
AnthrallicA@reddit
3 was my first car, just in dark blue 😀
BlackSwanMarmot@reddit
An orphan collector. You need a Merkur and an Eagle.
chisagogs@reddit (OP)
I’m aware my buddy just got a 30k original mile eagle premier that I’m pretty jealous about also I’d love to get a merkur Scorpio but I think my next weird car will be a Peugeot 504 wagon
Madder_Than_Diogenes@reddit
Love the 504. Number 27 reviewed it just the other day. https://youtu.be/Y9Nb46ClCuQ
lavardera@reddit
I like the Chevy Nova Corolla, and the Chevy Geo Corolla. Nice pair.
