One of those cars I'd pretty much forgotten had ever existed – If HML? is to be believed, there were still 575 of this spec from 2012 on the road at the end of 2020 – and for that reason alone I decided was worth documenting before all remaining UK examples disappear.
It doesn't look too bad from the front, but – as you'll see in the neighbouring photo – the rear lights are reaching levels of hideousness I've not witnessed since the Corolla E110 liftback came on the scene in March '98.
Indeed, GM made a total mockery of the Chevrolet badge the moment they started sticking it on stuff from the Daewoo design studio.
Registered in Wimbledon, S.W. London on the 10th September 2012, it was a one owner car until August 2015.

This car has been scrapped after Sept. 2015.
Posting last year finds I noticed that a lot of 80s cars have been scrapped meanwhile. This category of cars form a very vulnerable group of cars: to old to compete with current cars, to young to be considered as classic cars. Therefore they suffer by the lack of protection they deserve. They're depending on the goodness of the individual car enthusiast.
Initially the 340-series was presented as the 343, developed by DAF as the Daf 77. After Daf Car division had been taken over by Volvo in 1975, the new Swedish owner had adopted this new model.
In Aug. 1982 these cars were modified and renamed as 340 and 360.
In Autumn 1985 an another facelift was introduced.
The 300-Series was designed by Giovanni Michelotti.

The Matrix was a hatchback version of the Toyota Corolla for the North American market. This second generation was built from 2008 until 2014. There was also an equivalent from Pontiac, the Vibe, but that model was discontinued in 2009 already with the end of the Pontiac brand. This one has a 1.8 litre engine.

Unfortunately this is as good a view you can get as the walls to this scrapyard were very high. I do hope to return to see if i can get some better pictures, these weren't the only gems in there.

A rarely seen, Proton Satria Neo R3 sports hatchback on the side of a gated community road. It is fitted with a Malaysian designed, 1.6 liter, 4 cylinder DOHC, 16-valve, multi point fuel injection gasoline engine (Campro CPS).
While the car itself is street legal, its fancy license plate isn't. And no, it is not my car. 😁
This was an impromptu photo opportunity, actually. It wasn't intended as a "car shot" per se and unlike my usual car pictures, I didn't take additional pics from different angles. I was walking down the road and thought the bright yellow color scheme complemented the nice clouds in the background sky. 📷
This fiberglass bodied 3-wheel hatchback was introduced in Oct. 1973 to replace the Reliant Regal. Designed by Ogle design.
Besides the turtle note the enormous indicators...

The fourth-generation Honda Civic was introduced in 1987 as a sub compact model, designed by Humirou Yoshikawa, Tsuyoshi Nishimura, and Syuhei Ueda, as a three door Hatchback, four door Saloon and a five door station wagon (Honda Shuttle).It was produced by Honda from 1987 until 1991 with the wagon continuing in production in some markets until 1996 The suspension had a new double-wishbone suspension in the front and an independent suspension in the rear, the wheelbase was increased to 250 centimetres (98 in) from that of the third-generation Civic, and the body was redesigned with a lower hood line and more glass, resulting in less drag.
For most of Europe, the base model came equipped with a 1.3 L 4-cylinder engine, followed by a 1.4 L SOHC 4-cylinder dual-carburetted engine with 90 PS (89 bhp) which was available from 1988 until 1991, followed by the fuel injected 1.5i GL and GLX models. In the United Kingdom, the sedan was initially not available although it had been offered in many continental European markets since the introduction. With a resurgence in sales of saloons, it was introduced in early 1990, and then only as a carburetted 1.4 GL
