Wish I was there back then and had a car of those era, because now you wont see at even 85% of these cars on roads sad that people just scrapped these good cars for crap new ones becaue alot of these types of cars were still on road up untill 2010s then all of them disappeared, it all changed when they launched the stupid scrappage scheme, all when down the drain, and People still think giving their old car for a new one is cheap when it's not you still getting ripped off by dealers.

There was no terrorism preceding the 2000s!

They know exactly which discourse or narrative is going to be on top of the agenda to fool the masses (ideological threat) as opposed to a real imminent threat!!!
