PART TWO: The Europeans

And now…. for something completely different!

You may not know this about your humble scribe — but when not writing about brand-new cars all day long, he is often found roaming around auto junkyards.

Junkyards are so alluring and entertaining for a real car nut; they have a pull of the exotic, the mysterious, and the unknown at almost every visit.

Sure, most of the cars will be old Dodge Neons and unloved Isuzu Rodeos — but there is that rare chance of finding a diamond in the rough.

Here are some favorite European cars I have found over the years. There are a few rare ones in here, which I will highlight at the beginning.
