    Wow, a "White Hen"! Never saw one of these in Ireland.

    Interestingly (?) FILA have had a few car special editions with their name on them

    Ford thunderbird in the 80s, lancia Y10

    And of course Ducati special editions too.

    Similarly, you have the Suzuki Cultus Ellesse special edition

    And the 500 DIESEL special edition (that's only available in petrol....)

    I remember the Toyota Starlet "jeans" special edition with denim seats, but can't find any pics online

    I'm amused at one company putting their name on another completely different company's product.


    Renault Megane tomtom

    I'm only joking, hard to do all the different colours is what I meant!

    Still I've heard of fake ones of these being made. They'll be worth a fortune in years to come.

    In the Uk - Nissan did an Executive version of the Bluebird with Air conditioning, leather etc - they did two batches - the first lot in 1988 had a 1.8 turbo charged engine (there was also a ZX turbo in the normal Bluebird line up in UK) and the 2nd batch had the 2.0 fuel injected NA engine.
