the white one is an anadol indeed ,the name itself comes from ANADOLU ,which means ANATOLIA the dark blue one is a fiat 131 sahin (eagle ) built in Turkey again under TOFAS licence . that renault 12 is really minto indeed , you can see plenty of them in Turkey especially in rural areas . oh and if you get any trouble over there give me a shout ,i might know a president or 2

I have a customer in Turkey ( Izmir) I maintain his mercs for him here in OZ. He tells me that fuel is $3.60 a liter in Turkey so small cars and scooters are the norm. He's found keeps of pre 1965 Mercs .

Many years ago I changed my driving style to cope with rising fuel prices; I have now reached the stage where I am contemplating keeping my eyes shut in order to lower wind resistance.

LPG/OTOgas is a lot more popular in Turkey too though. With petrol at £1.50-1.60 a litre, and the wages for a waiter working the season being £1-2 a day, not many of them drive at all. Hence the scooters everywhere.
