Frequent coverage of available Saabs will make this entry no surprise, but there are a couple of remarkable things about this car that merit a feature. While Saabs have a reputation for durability, for reasons that are not immediately apparent, we don’t see as many high-mileage examples offered as we would for other very durable makes. Perhaps collapsed driver’s seats have rendered them all undrivable? You can find this 1986 Saab 900 turbo 5-speed 3-door hatch for $2500 in North Seattle, WA.
As mentioned here before, the Renault LeCar was a revolutionary car for Renault, in the way the Golf was for VW, or the Mini was for Morris/Austin. And in the feature of this 1978 LeCar, we discovered a LeCar that was actually quite sporting. If you decided to pass on that car because it was a non-runner, or not smog-worthy, we have another opportunity to make your own sporting Renault with the convenience of 4 doors. You can find this 1981 Renault LeCar in Heron Lake, MN with bidding at $1025 and about 7 1/2 days left to go.
What a difference a decade makes! While yesterday’s Corona Mark 2 coupe was very much of the 1960s, with its handsome sloping roofline and polished metal trim, Toyota had moved up in the world towards solidifying its position as one of the world’s major automakers. By 1979, there was a successful line of pickups, along with the Corolla, Corona, and Cressida sedans. The Celica was added in 1971, and in 1978 the second generation A40/A50 Celica was introduced. You can find this 1979 RA42 Toyota Celica Liftback for $3000 in Overland Park, KS.
