carsntrucks4you Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) This Times autoquiz was a car from Brazil. The 1973 - 1982 VW Brasilia. Some of you said that this was the VW 411/412 Variant. Or they gave me a mixture of booth types as an answer. But that was wrong. The Brasilia and the 411/412 Looks simililar but the Brasila is based on a KarmanGhia chassis and has the Beetle Engine, while the 411/412 had a specific Type 4 chassis.

peteski Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Looking at the overall body, the gas filler cap and the headlight bezels I know what make it is, but I'm too lazy to find the specifics. I guess I'll find out how close I was on Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonW Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Thought it was photo-shopped from a few different cars at first then my brain kicked in!. PM sent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earl Marischal Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 It looks like a 411 crossed with Golf.steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 As soon as I saw it I knew it was one from the VW family. It does have very strong lines of the Golf/Rabbit family, but the grille-less nose, fender-fuel-door, and the rear quarters louvers say "rear engine".

otherunicorn Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Of course, the biggest clue was parked right beside it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Of course, the biggest clue was parked right beside it! Well, you can't always depend on that. But it wasn't even needed: The heritage of the car in question was obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
