OK, I'll bite - what are "the spats"????? And yes, nice car!
2001 BMW 330ci/E46, 2008 BMW 335i conv/E93
the spats are the fender skirts on the rear wheels.

can't quite tell if the body looks right for a Falcon though. Almost like a bigger car with a Falcon nose grafted on, but that could be the angle of the picture.

Looks like a Falcon to me. But I believe the thing on the side means its a Sprint (although missing the sprint badges).

Recently Ford announced it would no longer produce cars Down Under. Apparently they will import cars from other areas into Australia and New Zealand, I'm not sure if any will be sold with the Falcon badge but I imagine they will continue the model name.

On a positive note, I read today that the Mustang will be offered in Australia starting in 2014 in RH drive with V6 and V8 models.
There are also a Peugeot 304 in front of that and a 204 a few cars back.

Definitely an Australian built Ford Falcon from early 1960's. The first generation XK had US spec suspension which fell apart on Australian roads and had to be strengthened for Australia. (Some personal irony here as I am just off to get recently fitted rear shock absorbers replaced as they came unstuck on outback roads ten days ago.)
Falcons have been made here for more than fifty years, being the mainstay of the taxi fleet. However, production will cease in a year or two I as they no longer appeal to most. I am never happy driving them.
The car in the photo is registered in South Australia

Well, it was marked 180 D on the back. First one I've ever seen. Not that I'm looking a lot - it was parked near me at the local Target.

Hey, I have an idea. We could compare a 180D and a 190D automatic in the quarter mile. Might be an interesting way to spend a week end.

though in this case a Hemi might not work. Maybe a Benz engine instead.
I imagine that the car is more than sturdy enough to handle it, but might want to tweak the suspension and put some brembos on it.
of course it is a financial disaster, but for a rich guy with weird taste, why not?

How about a 2000-ish Infiniti I30 (you had the right company):

The number plate looks German, perhaps a DDR product from Wartburg or IFA/Sachsenring. :confuse: :sick:

Ok - two clues; its from outside the EU and it was developed with some assistance from a then-successful British manufacturer who is no longer with us (though that doesn't narrow it down either, come to think of it!)

Just thought a typical British car park would be nice for a change....
Car in motion is a late 70s Escort. I'll leave the rest for someone else.
The picture was apparently taken in Leicester in 1984.
That Marina estate is a Mk2, as it has a different grille from earlier models. Indeed it must be pretty much extinct now.
The Datsun was sold here as the 100A Cherry, again they are as rare as hen's teeth now.
The Honda rebadges have always interested me, a Triumph and this one, which you might recognize:

A Rover 216 from the wonderful TV show 'Keeping Up Appearances' . if you have never seen it take a look at UK Gold.
