i stumbled across this south american market vw, the saveiro.

i personally think it looks great, i also think that if vw released something like this in aus. they would surely sell a fair few!

I don't mind the looks but the Proton Jumbuck isn't selling like it should and there is nothing wrong with it....
they were supposed to fill the gap left by the Subaru brumby ute, which sold heaps in Australia....

the main street of Scone used to be filled with them a few years ago....

The Jumbuck is larger too....

only its not 4WD.... it looks like country people like to have 4wd just in case......

or maybe they like to have a flat four boxer engine....

Brazillian VWs are usually only made in LHD.....
and don't have to comply with compliance laws
so "they can't be driven on public roads in California."


so if We all change over to the other side......
like they did in Sweden many years ago at Midnight one Sunday.....

Yikes...

I think the ute with the doors up in the air, is a customised version.... [personal parts]

as they aren't really practical .... in a ute....

Nice car but just another ute...
Any word on how much...???
Those side rear windows look silly...
They go too high into the roof..!!!
It would look better with them level with the door glass...















or fill them in all together,



















But then it looks like a Proton Jumbuck...


:P
