The four door first generation Carina is rare nowadays. Where in the past extra doors meant a higher sales price meant that most cars sold were the two door variants. I know only one four door survived in the Netherlands against at least five or six two doors.
It’s a shame the two door hardtop coupe never made it to Europe though

Nope…still boring and uninteresting. May be ‘rare’ anymore, and a bit of a curiosity due to age, but still a crapbox imnsho…
