Thanks, yes, most cars sold here are second hand imported from Japan. usually around 4/5 years old when they arrive here.

Didnt know they had Morry Minors over your way? The track and height is superior to my Charade, all the earlier model charades had better handling too.

In Malaysia they are called Perodua Viva and are really popular to tune, kei car racing at the Sepang circuit is quite big as Malay motor sport goes. Funnily, Malaysia made the Citroen AX, badged as a Proton. I had many of these Citroen AX's.

I just wish new millennium bubble cars had lower roofs and wider tracks, handling has gone backwards in favour of hedgehog looks, upright seating and parking benefits. Interior volume is huge though. Great for a young family in the city, and not so great for crazy nutters fanging through the mountains, on their way for a surf.
