Ok. Remember when XF Falcons where common. Or The 80s FWD bucks Where ( in USA ) But now they getting hard to stop. This is the post for it. ( no Limit how much you can post I.E one car per post or 20 is A-ok with me ) Anywhere in the world can post it to OK here in Australia . The 1993-1997 camry use to litter the streets with its Blandness. Underrated blandness. My Ex GF.s dad had one in 2011. my brother had one in 2014. and my Auntie had one in 2011. But now the odds of seeing one seems to be fading. While you still catch them. Often driven by old people. Its Safe to say a dyeing breed. ALso on this list is 1997-2002 Camry. As the newest ones are now 20 years old. I seen the survival rate is starting to be low. Still common but for now long next hyundai excel. Like wow they seemed to also litter the streets. Seen as a cheap cheerful run about. Even Spawning excel racing.... yes it was a thing here in Aussie land. They where often seen as cheap first cars or older people cars. I remember Them very well. I use to work on them. See them in demo derbys. Often seen as a Bogan car After 2009. And/or first car. Add in meh build Quality. And Crashes. Modders age and demo derbys. means that not so meany live today. While we still see the odd one there and there. its almost rare now. the 2000/2005 Accent Witch was more or less the same thing. is starting to go like the excel. Also in about 4-8 years the getz will also. Next the daihatsu charade. While i never REALLY saw them everywhere like the last few cars on the list. I use to see them there and there. my mate even had one for 2 mouths in 2013. But they all but seem to be gone,. I dont know when i last saw one. Next is the mitsubishi magna, Basically the Aussie FWD family car.made from 1985-2005. Then repalced by the 380 From 2005-2008. They where cool cars for a FWD. BUT often to made to be seen as a joke. While some did fall to bits. They where pretty neat. And in a rare move. The engines got bigger NOT smaller. While the first era was all inline 4. They phased them out and made it V6 only. How cool is that. Years later. After they also where good demo derby cars. Finding good ones that are not faded paint or beat up is getting hard. even abused ones dont show up anymore. the Mazda 121 was a cheap bubble car. with cute 90s looks. As well and a good price and made to last. Lots of them where 1st cars. While they where basic and easy to fix. there is only so much a car can take. now rare on the roads. Now the cool stuff. 1990s Ford and holdens.. Ahh it wont be a aussie mans Blog/Thread without These Aussie buggers now wont it mate the Ford falcon And Holden commodore. Where the backbone of life. They often where everywhere before Suvs. While the 90s had import Rivals. as well as Camry and magna to worry about. They still top the sales charts. mum often had a Base falcon GLI or the cheap Holden. dad often had the Luxury trims ( sometimes with the sweet V8 ) the old brother had the performance versions. But age. And hoons. And people having Fun in them made most of the world BUT as They no longer make them. here is hoping survivors ( still lot of them left both Ford and Holden ) get saved and loved. And the run down ones are resorted. ) There are meany more i can post. But i think i will leave it there. I hope you enjoy posting and/or The read Sorry for spelling mistakes. more so Thanks to covid i feel lovely.. not lol
Heres a couple that I have not seen in a while. 1st is the dodge neon. These used to run all around houston texas. My dad had one before I was born. I love this car and have always wanted one. But I can never find one for sale in a 30 mile radius. 2nd car. The Pontiac sunfire/Chevy cavalier. Now to start this off I own a 2003 sunfire which is a diamond in the rough. I have only seen 2 of the in the past year. The cavalier is definitely more common than the sunfire. There was a sunfire and a cavalier in my old neighborhood 3rd car. 3rd gen ford taurus. This is my favorite taurus but I never see them around. I have only seen one sho in my life. There is a one in a beautiful dark green. The last one is the 1st gen chevy aveo. My best friends dad had one these for as long as I remember. They would be in every parking lot in town. But they just disappeared.
Toyota picnic, Honda airwaves, Hyundai Trajets and Hyundai Matrixes are is such situation over here in Singapore. Here are some pictures as im sure many have not seen them before. Toyota Picnic (2nd Generation) Honda Airwave Hyundai Trajet Hyundai Matrix
Since I didn't move into my neighborhood until a few months ago, I decided to check old Google Street View photos to see what was still being driven here in 2009. This is one of the nicer parts of Warsaw, so there weren't that many older cars to look at. There were some models that are now no longer to be found on the road, but all of them belong to the typical 00s Poland cheap fare, with nothing really specific to my area. Some postcommunist 90s cars: A bunch of Fiat and Daewoo models that didn't last to this day: The older Western stuff - mainly German cars, but also some Japanese and French models: Plus the vans:
These ugly bastards. I remember seeing them everywhere. Now i havent see one for years not even for sale where they all go? I hope in the crusher cause thats where these abominations belong 70s american trucks like these used to be everywhere and there were a billion of them for sale. Good luck finding one that drives for under 4000 dollars now days. havent seen one of these in a long time. I remember always seeing them as a kid.
For me it’s probably the f150s from 1980 onward to 1998. I used to see them everywhere, now I only see them once in a while, all rusted out.
GAZ-332132 I used to see them everywhere in yellow color, and it was Jitney, in USA it sounds like that, yes? In Russia we name them "Marshrutka". We had no buses, because its a small city (Essentuki, 100k people lives there). I remember them with love.. For now, i live in the same place, and we got new "Mashrutka"s. --- Post updated --- Here is a video, where you can see some of them, yes, it's my town in 2012.
For me,I come from China,living in a small town in eastern China. Old things such as VW Santana(or Passat in Europe and Quantum in North America)used to be one of the most common car here(until 2012.SAIC Volkswagen stopped the production of the Santana Sedan),but now only few of them left. And also the estate version.I haven't been seen one for years. There's still some cars like them: Citroen Fukang(or Citroen ZX in Europe)("Fukang",spelled as"富康"in Chinese,which means getting rich.And it is a transliteration of the word Volcane.) Xiali N3 and Xiali A+(They all based on Daihatsu Charade) FAW Vela and Xiali 2000(Rebranded Toyota Echo) Suzuki Alto"Delighted Prince"(CA72)(Pure car of the people in China once upon a time.In China you can even get one with Alto Works aero kit,but still with stock engine.) Suzuki Alto"Urban Beibei"(CA72)(With stock body kit)
