I wanted one of these so badly when they came out. The rear seats reclined!
It doesn't deserve to be lumped in with the rest of the shapeless monotony in the 1980s pool, but here it is.
Clean, stock Honda Civics of the 4th generation are starting to get less common around here. This one looks quite nice apart from the chrome on the fenders. This one has Special Edition badges.

New Renault Clio Estate shares the same dynamic breeding as the hatchback but has its own distinct identity. This model has the aesthetic design cues of shooting brakes but also dials in practicality and versatility for good measure.
// Nouvelle Renault Clio Estate possède le style à part des breaks de chasse. Largement marqué par un style emprunt de dynamisme, ce modèle s'appuie également sur les notions de fonctionnalité et modularité.
Having some fun messing around with some photobashing/manips. Nothing too serious just trying something different.
The FSO Polonez is a motor vehicle that was developed in Poland in collaboration with Fiat and produced by Fabryka Samochodów Osobowych from 1978 to 2002. It was based on the Polski Fiat 125p platform with a new hatchback design by Giorgetto Giugiaro. It was available in a variety of body styles that included two- and four- door compact-sized cars, station wagons, as well as commercial versions that included pickup truck and ambulance uses. With production total of over 1 million units, not counting pick-up and van variants. The Polonez was marketed in other nations and was popular in its domestic market until Poland joined the European Union in 2004.
The car's name comes from the Polish dance, the polonaise and was chosen through a readers' poll conducted by the Życie Warszawy newspaper.
The Polonez was based on the Polski Fiat 125p that Fabryka Samochodów Osobowych (FSO) built under license from Fiat. The internal components, including modernised 1.3/1.5 Litre engines, (pistons and carburetor), the chassis, and other mechanicals, were from the Polski Fiat 125p, but the body was an entirely new liftback body designed in the early 1970s by Centro Stile Fiat as a new prototype of Fiat. After the Polish side started co-operation with Fiat over a new car, the original design was changed due to Polish requirements.
In 1981 and 1983, the FSO Polonez Coupé with proper three-door bodywork was introduced. It had the usual 1,481 cc engine with 60 kW (80 hp) and 2.0 DOHC Fiat. It was the first FSO model to feature electronic ignition and fuel economiser owing to a supply of pre-heated air to the suction manifold. Only a few dozen were produced.
Here's one of the last Mercury Cougar coupes, the seventh-generation "sport compact" model. :-)
The previous Cougar, an intermediate personal luxury coupe, was discontinued after other cars of that nature went the way of the rumble seat. Ford's Lincoln-Mercury division attempted to re-invent the Cougar as a sporty hatchback.
Sold as the Ford Cougar in Europe, the Mark 7 Cougar, in production from 1999 to 2002 (I don't remember the year of this car), featured a 2-liter four-cylinder engine with an optional 2.5-liter Duratec V6 available.
The Mark 7 Cougar gave the Lincoln-Mercury division a Mercury that was not a Ford with a new badge (remember the Bobcat?), but it did not sell very well and it had a short lifespan. Ironically, many Ford executives felt it would have sold better as a Ford-branded model had it been offered as such in North America - and that the car didn't fit the "Mercury image."
Whatever that is.
