A fair few Austins. Westminster and those home counties ones.
Monte Carlo got used by a number of people although maybe the Lancia is disallowed because it was Montecarlo. Not too far away you have the Triumph Dolomite(s).

Kia Rio? Have I made that up?
As I suspected I was right about everything.

If you go back to the early days there are all sorts of weird and not so wonderful marques. Stirling, Taunton, Stoneleigh and Rochdale come to mind. I suspect there are hundreds.

No there was a Kia Rio, also a Panther. Which leads me to Lima and there must be somewhere called Deville, if not in France then in America.
Also Ford, Vauxhall, Austin, Lincoln, Aston, Bedford, Cadillac.

- I scored very low on the autie test. I’m cheerful, happy, confident, like meeting new people, chatty and largely sociable. What the fuck am I doing on this forum?
