That's the first shot I've seen of the front. All the other's have been from the rear. Thanks for posting!

Today in the news: US receives a massive shipment of Ford Festiva look-alikes from Iran per the agreement between the members of the enthusiast group fordfestiva.com and the Iranian government to stop the attempt at becoming a nuclear power if guaranteed purchases are made.
In love with a MadScientist!:thumbright: There's a fine line between breathtaking ingenuity and "That's the stupidest thing I've ever seen!"

I wish!
Solve the problems of no Saipas in the U.S. and World Peace. Well, until someone does another fool thing. Who's next, North Korea? Syria? Pakistan?

Another "make me-want that car" SAIPA of Iran made will actually startle Filipino Kia Pride fans across the islands is that the SAIPA made a pickup version of the Kia Pride. called the SAIPA Pick-up, Saipa stretched a regular LX chassis an additional 50 inches and cut a front half of a pride front part and merged it to create another new kind of Kia Pride-based vehicle the SAIPA pickup has a 500-kilogram (1,100 lb) payload.
The SAIPA 141 and 132 and pickup are still on Iranian production lines and are exported in 25 Arab states and there are a small number of them in Ukraine and in some east eurasian countries were there is an import dealer of SAIPA Motors, All I can say about SAIPA is they are fantastic in revamping and modernizing the Kia Pride.. makes me want one to..
"The Kia Pride wagon is one of the few unique modifications Kia Motors did to the Kia Pride, Sold only in Europe, it can be found from Spain, the Germanic lands to Belize. it was said this models were intended only for the european market, but who knows, a filipino there can buy one as I see in some are also found in Turkey, the price of used pride wagons range from 25,000 to 100K pesos if converted to Philippine currency there engines are all fuel injected B3 gasoline engines."
Belize is on the east coast of Central America.
I'm off to start another thread in "general." On Belize, and the geographical advantage it may have for us...
