Time for our daily OPPO field trip to do what we always do, look at cars :]

I'm not going to put a picture of mustamakkara here because most of you would probably think it's shit served with lingonberries.

No idea what they drive there, but all I know is every Finn is a better driver than me. "If you want to win, hire a Finn"

McFly!

But first, lemme take a selfie!

Is that.... is that a Audi RS2 Avant??

Even in Finland they love them some custom full size vans.

Blue WRX with gold wheels is the best that I could find (didn't look much though).

Hmm, that's weird. It was an old GMC custom van. Pretty rare in Findland, I'd imagine.

Cool, a lifted Hilux!

Probably S4 or S6 avant.

Yep, they are more common than their more utilitarian cousins.

There's fair amount of H2's in Finland, most of them have some blingy rims.

E-class wagon!

Not an RS2, just an S2 Avant. RS2s have an additional horizontal badge below the slanted ones that says Porsche.

One of those old conversion vans? More common than you think. Some of them (along with some 'murican full size wagons) have been put to use as 'lauluauto' i.e. beat to hell driving around Finnish festivals while drinking and having sex in them.

Chrysler Voyager

Mmm...brown Audi A5 Sportback . Wonder if it's a TDI...

Chrysler Neon. Using the phone, but on the side of the street, very smart.

Pontiac Grand Prix.

Speaking on phone while driving is illegal without handsfree and it can get you a fine.

But she's not driving. She's parked.

Doesn't count, right?

Citroen DS

Tuned (not sure if rice or nice) Mazda RX-7. Nice wheels.

First gen Neon .

E-Class Hearse.

Another case of 'Someone bought a Caliber ?'

It doesn't count. But if it was legal she probably wouldn't have parked.

True. Definitely glad it's illegal.

Nice DS! I was actually looking at prices of project DS'es some time ago.

I wouldn't necessarily say rice, just 90's-early 00's style.

I'm pretty sure it was the cheapest American car on the market when it was new.

THE hearse in Finland.

But it has those funky flip down speakers in the trunk lid!

The answer is always...

Old Mitsubishi , not sure of model name.

Riced S14, Volvo wagon, and a Chevy Van.

Yet another Neon .

That's an old Lancer.

C4 Corvette

Riced Cougar , looks to be a Mercury badge swap.

#torchbait

Harley-Davidson and Kawasaki

Multiple old Volvos

Hey, another C3 Pluriel !

Lada 112

Another GMC van.

Neon , once more.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. The Nissan Primera [P12] hatch has an awkward looking rear.

Chevrolet Lumina

Not sure what this is...

Kia Venga

Pontiac Trans Sport/Montana

Another of these strange looking things.

Probably just an audi 80 avant with a badge on it.
