Until mid to late '90s it was still quite common to see bare-bones versions of the "popular" cars in Brazil without a passenger-side mirror, even though it would usually be added later as a dealer-installed option. On a sidenote, AFAIK the Endura-E engine fitted to this Fiesta back in the day had the 1.0L version only for Brazil, even though the engine was supplied from Spain.

No pictures, but it happened again. I drove to the recycling station and the car that pulled in behind me was same make, model and color --a white Metro XFi. So there are at least three in this town.
This one was a 1991, high mileage and he paid $1800 and had to rebuild the engine. Black holes where the headlights should be.

I've only seen one of those in person. In Toronto. (I think there used to be a company there that imported, refurbished & sold them.)

It's only the 2nd that I have seen with the full-sized rear hatch, yet I have also seen others with that smaller trunk lid. |

Not the first Volvo C40 that I saw on the wild, yet it was the first one I took pictures of.
