Renault CUV based on Juke underpinnings.

Looks better and more practical than the Juke, though still a little wild. I like the two-tone, inside and out.

Renault CUV based on Juke underpinnings. My information is that the new Renault Captur CUV is based in the Clio. Undoubtedly there's some Nissan in it as well.

There's lots of pressure on Renault to build Nissans in France. Reports are a bit conflicting as to whether it'll happen. (Reuters).

I remember a quote from the late 1980s from the CEO of Renault at that time: "Zee Japanese? Zay have nothing to teach us..."

To be fair, Renault saved Nissan. Now it'll be the other way around.

G'day A second generation (but Mark I) Ford Transit from about 1965-78. This one is a long wheelbase van with twin rear wheels. The stubby nose housed a V4 engine which was seriously underpowered.
This one appears to be LHD suggesting it was made in Europe, rather than England
An awful, awful vehicle. Its great claim to fame was that it was the vehicle of choice for UK thieves for a long time - totally unmemorable and most seemed to be in the awful red colour above. Every gypsy encampment seemed to have several.
Cheers
Graham

seems pretty close. according to the seller, it is a "1967 magirus firetruck german made in turky by ford"
Quite the lineage!
