Replying to: andys120 (Dec 03, 2008 4:19 pm) Mid-80's Lotus Excel. I nearly forgot it was yet another car that shared its name with a "lesser" make (in this case, Hyundai ). ....Kinda like the Volvo 850 & BMW 850. Replies to this message: andys120 (Dec 03, 2008 8:56 pm)

Replying to: karsick (Dec 03, 2008 6:12 pm) It's a later Excel SE from 1991. I find it easy to confuse the Excel with the similar but earlier Eclat.

Replying to: andys120 (Dec 04, 2008 7:21 am) Wow. The styling looks sort of Camry/ES350ish. So my first guess was that this is some sort of JDM Camry variant. Then I noticed that the badge looks like the defunct Rover one. And the car doesn't appear to be RHD. So I'm stuck.

Replying to: stephen987 (Dec 04, 2008 9:15 am) Unless the picture is flopped, it appears to be LHD. And it's the Roewe 550. Replies to this message: andys120 (Dec 04, 2008 9:58 am)

Replying to: hudsonthedog (Dec 04, 2008 9:45 am) You're right Hudson, it's the Roewe 550, a shorter variant of the Roewe 750, which was a clone of the Rover 750. They're made by Nanjing Motors of China. The same car is sold by Nanjing in Chile as the MG550.

Replying to: andys120 (Dec 04, 2008 10:00 am) New Veedub Polo I'd guess? Look too tiny for a Golf. Replies to this message: andys120 (Dec 04, 2008 10:41 am) steve_ (Dec 04, 2008 10:43 am) andys120 (Dec 04, 2008 12:02 pm)

Replying to: boomchek (Dec 04, 2008 10:33 am) Sorry Boomer, it's not a Polo, which is smaller than a Golf.

Replying to: boomchek (Dec 04, 2008 10:33 am) Here's the second generation Golf Plus: (Straightline) Looks like a match except for the wheels. And the license plate is next in sequence. Replies to this message: andys120 (Dec 04, 2008 12:02 pm)
