Nice GT

Post by Jayboy »

Just got back from Salou in Spain today.

Only saw one BX, a very tidy silver GT which was in fantastic condition considering the stat of most Spanish cars!

Very surprised at the lack of older vehicles out there, especially SEAT's. Didn't see a single Marbella, only two Terra Kombi vans, one Malaga, one Mark 1 Ibiza and one facelift version (not sure I'd call them Mark 2's... There was a nice SEAT 600 on the road too

Lots of Opel Kadett's (euro astra mk2's) in Spain for some reason, we went to Asturias last summer and I was really tempted to buy a very tidy burgundy 1.6D estate for 400 euro's and drive it home. But I was told I wasn't allowed...
