| Dad had one of these when i was a kid. One day i was sitting in it while parked on the inclined driveway messing with the gear shift. I was 4. I put it in neutral and it rolled down driveway, across the street, and bumped in to a parked car. That was fun. | |

| >>26537082 | |
| Oh it's just a custom jobbie is it? I thought it might have been that super rare expensive Cosworth version but it turns out maybe that was a Vega? | |
| --- 26537586 | |
| >>26535372 | |
| Honestly why the fuck did they choose Jimmy for the name? Jimmy? Jimmy is the name of that one guy no one likes. You know the guy. | |

| >>26537038 | |
| don't these have an isuzu engine? | |
| --- 26537966 | |
| My favorite T-platform car (pic semi related) was the Opel By Isuzu, which was sold in Buick dealerships, nevermind that there were versions of the platform already on sale and being built domestically GM figured buick needed in on the fun and would have the japs build it and the germans brand it too. Eventually when the facelift hit (pic actually related) it was sold just as an Isuzu. | |

| You forgot about the S/R, which was the only one with the 1.6 engine for a while | |

| GMC can be called "jimmy", people did that with their trucks. Why did Japanese choose Jimny for their offroader, on the other hand? | |

| And the Kadett GS, people seem to like it more than the GSi as a driver's car | |
| --- 26544159 | |
| >>26544155 | |
| That's an Opel Kadett. Vauxhall Astra in the UK. Top notch hot hatch. The GSI was the top one. Popular with car thieves here in Northern Ireland. | |
| --- 26544163 | |
| >>26544159 | |
| GTE was the top one. With the C20XE | |
| --- 26544169 | |
| >>26544163 | |
| Yeah, my bad. GSI was the MK3. | |
