Pindar Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Ahh . . . back to a vintage when ordinary cars had leather and walnut. Actually they abandoned real walnut in favour of a photocopy of some walnut in the late 1970s. The leather was replaced by vinyl and leather became an option on the "Highline" model which featured a 1750CC engine and overdrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
