...my inaugural post on Oppo! Was granted authorship about a week ago and promptly forgot to introduce myself. To make up for that, have some wonderful potato pictures of my little car, aka Bumblebee. (Don't go hatin' on the stickers bro, I need the +5hp they provide for all the track days I attend)

...what country is this? Letters under euro flag too small to read. I think it said "GB" so Great Britain but am not sure.

It's a Vauxhall so Britain is vary likely.

It's time to put on music - it's time to dress up right. It's time to show off Vauxhalls, on the Oppo show tonight!

There are two additional hints in the pictures; 1. steering wheel on the wrong side, 2. Vauxhall badge. Had this been in continental Europe it would've had an Opel badge and be LHD.

I visited the Vauxhall/Opel plant in Eisenach where they make or made all the Corsa two-doors some years back. It was pretty neat.

Welcome to Oppo Mate

I love it! I test drove the Fiesta before I made my decision, but honestly this was a car I bought with my heart. It's incredibly light, and although the engine is microscopic (1.2!) it's still a hoot to drive.

I love it to bits! Hilariously, mine is a 'Limited Edition' although you see them absolutely everywhere

As soon as I read the first part of that I started singing it in my head. Thanks.

Hmm.. it seems that your steering wheel is on the wrong side, I'd get that checked out if I were you.

Seems to be wrong wheel drive as well, maybe I should send it back?

Demand a refund immediately my friend, ask for this. I provided you with a photo for reference.

It's black + yellow and a product of GM, I can hardly see the difference ;)

(I would LOVE a Camaro in all seriousness)

A peppy little 1.2. I go by the oppo mantra of driving a slow car fast :)

nice! I drove one of those once...
heavy, springy clutch and light steering, right?
it's an awesome car!

Yeah, more than willing to chuck itself into a corner at silly speed! The VXR variant has *ridiculous* amounts of torque steer that put a huge smile on your face.

the VXR is just a bundle of fun!

Absolutely! I'd love to have a go with a VXR Nurburgring, supposedly it's even more mental
