    In the pics it looks pretty good. Maybe Tedy knows the car? Can't get the pics to transfer so you'll have to look at the advert.

    Wow - tried to copy / paste pictures but can't get picture 'properties' to show to grab the URL.

    $10,000 Can = $9,747 USD

    A bit pricey, but it IS nice....
    Woodgrain appears to be airbrushed.

    Called a 'Villager' by the way, not a Country Squire.

    Could be that in Canada we didn't have Villages but we did have Country and certainly Squires :biglaugh::biglaugh:Remember, we are part socialist, part capitalist, and we have monarchy somewhere in there too.....:evilsmile:

    And then of course we have Winnipeg:slap: - Norman, are the rumors true that Winnipeg was named after the original bear Winnie the Pooh? Or is that just a viscous rumor started by those Victoria'ites?

    Wow, that was fast Handy......:clap:

    For some reason I thought Winnipeg and the real Winnie the Pooh were related in some way.........not that that has anything to do with this thread :slap:

    It sure is a pretty car. I'd gladly be called the Villager Idiot to own it. Mind you, if I bought this car before the DW gets what she wants it wouldn't matter because I'd be called the LATE Villager Idiot.
