    Great ....... another car not offered in usa.
    (sigh) we were scheduled to do a cruise around UK Islands "but-she-who-must-be-obeyed" 's health degraded, so no chance of that.

    Sending her well wishes!

    Come to think of it, I didn’t think about the Arteon Estate when I was there. I ended up with a 2025 Polestar 2 so that’s the 300hp RWD version. It was mucho fun.

    Today I saw a Porsche Taycan Turbo S Sport Turismo with Swiss license plates parked in front of my hotel. It looked enormous, mostly because every other car here is small-to-sensible.

    The other notable was a 40+ year old first generation Fiat Panda with faded paint, puttering along like a champ. This is the car Yugo famously licensed and built for the USA market in the late 1980s.

    Today's spots were a Mercedes G wagen with Ukrainian plates, a BYD Seal and a Toyota Aygo X in a stunning 2-tone paint job.

    A white 2-Dr G-Class convertible. Obviously a Euro import.

    Today I saw a Cadillac Lyric and a BMW Z4- I thought those had all evaporated already.

    What do you mean? Lyriq is still in production and Z4 still is for another year. (I assume it’ll go when the GR Supra goes).


    I didn’t see this one but my brother sent me a photo. A Holden Ute.

    Saw an old survivor, 80's corolla station wagon. It wasn't restored and looked well used; w/o rust. Looks like the original mustard color; yellowish/orange paint of that era. Found this picture on google.

    Saw a Sable wagon from around that time. Then a Ford Freestyle.
    Chevy Prizm this morning.

    I had no idea they were still making them. I used to see Z3s and Z4s all over the place and then it seemed like they all vanished.

    I know they're still popping out a few Lyriqs here and there, I managed to see two yesterday (different colors) along with a super clean Bentley sedan.
