What are the car names you'd like to see to return?

freshpopcorn

So over the years we've seen some names dropped and reintroduced after a few years.
I think the latest is Ford is bring back the Puma but it's a completely different type of segment of cars.


I'd like if Opel reintroduced the Senator name.(I've seen very few of them).
There's just something I like about the name.

Opel Commodore,

I saw a 72 or 73 D one going north from Sligo to Donegal last weekend. he last time i saw one was in the early 80s when a wealthy Canadian guy used to visit a Canadian neighbour of mine.

I watched old episodes of Crimewatch UK on Youtube.
They nearly always have a Sierra or a Granada.

If a van was involved it was nearly always a Bedford van.

It annoyed me that Ford released the Kuga, having had a Cougar, which was a very different animal...

What about Datsun will they ever return to the Irish market?

I lived in England in that era. A common vehicle would blend in seamlessly.
The Sierra was called the cl*tor*s because every c**t had one.

I've heard of amphibious vehicles, but that second Voisin with its four hatches looks like an amphibious submarine.

They were said to be reviving the Datsun name for budget cars. Like rebranded Dacias or something. Don’t know if it ever happened.

I'm sure there's more but I can't think properly at this time on a Friday

Well, it already has made one return. I didn't realise it but the bug eyed, 3 front seat modern version wasn't the original Multipla. There was one before that that looked like a stretched version of a Fiat 600, and also looked uncannily like it was driving backwards!

vektarman

Hillman Avenger.
