ID my friend's car
I told him you guys would be all over it. He's a non-believer. Please don't let me down!

I think Amazon was the slang for the 122S. Or it was the Amazon in other markets. Something like that. The GT is the rare and desirable version.

It's a dowdy old turd, in less than optimal condition. Help your friend find a better car.

Looking at your friend it looks like him and the car are a good match.

He needs a new wardrobe, too.
You know, while you're in the middle of the intervention. |

My daughter just her 3rd 122. It was on the TV show Wheelers Dealers.
Should be on next season coming up. Red one, both my daughters will be on when the new buyer shows up at the end. |
