Remembering Japanese cars from the past
Earlier this week I received an email from fellow Carina A60 owner Andrew who sent me these two pictures:
Andrew spotted this Carina Coupe in Yalta, Crimea (Ukraine) and snapped these two pictures!
The Carina still appears to be in good nick after 30 years: Continue reading
Now this is a sad case as this Carina is not rusting…
