I am a Dutchfag with a big love for cars with a big nose and a closed grill. I am looking worldwide for models that have this property.
I am currently a proud owner of a Ford Sierra 1987 pre-face-lifted.
Cars with the property mentioned:
- Daewoo Espero - Ford Taurus 1991 - 1995 - Ford Sierra 1987 - 1989
Does anybody have any other idea of a car with this property?
Pref min dimensions: => L 4.50m => W 1.70
> 100 hp
Any suggestion appreciated
Alexander Gray
Ford Taurus 1992 - 1995
Thomas Mitchell
Daewoo Espero
Blake James
I hope you guys have an idea of what I mean, 'cause I love those type cars but a size bigger would be welcome (IF existing)

Spot on about the nose-style but unforunatly this car is too small.
Kevin Foster
Honking for suggestions
Nathan Brooks
R31 GTS
Zachary Lee
My daily driver is a vw passat 35i from 1990. Similar to this one, but grey. Comfy car with an insane amount of space inside.
Angel King
Love it, looks like a Prelude but would like a car with a wider body.
Logan Myers
VN group a SS
Ryan Allen
Aah yes, forgot to mention this one, also on my list, but I would like a car with a wider and longer body as my current Sierra.
Brody Morris
Is this an Australian Opel Omega?
Henry Butler
VK group a SS
Christopher Hill
VL group a SS
Noah Perez

>hnng
Benjamin James
Oh yeah
Dylan Anderson
Im liking them, added to my list thank you. Prob hard to find one near Dutchland though
Gavin Miller
Passat length: 4575 mm width: 1705 mm
Sierra length: 4425–4522 mm width: 1698 mm
It's not much, but the Passat is actually a little larger than the Sierra. How large exactly were you thinking?
Dominic Bell
Just a little bit faster
Carson Myers
EDIT: the body width is unfortunatly not above my Sierra
Brandon Ross
Move to oz you will be in heaven
Benjamin Robinson
Saab 900
Eli Davis
I've read Sierra is 1720mm width, but due to it being a low car it sometimes looks 'small' in traffic.
I am looking around 1800mm and above.
Although I doubt if the 7cm would make much optical difference or if I am being fooled by myself.
Levi Hernandez
The only one so far matching all my desires is the Ford Taurus 1995 or that Australian Omega
Benjamin Murphy
Chevy Cavalier
Brayden Rodriguez
Don't know if it meets your requirements, but the most well known and definitely the best looking is the VW Passat B3. Its even nicknamed "Neusbeer" in the Netherlands because of this feature. Also, waar woon je pik? Kom chillen broer.
Easton Parker
This one has been sold here as the Chevy Corsica. Had almost the same rear as my Sierra has
Robert Rodriguez
Yes this is exactly the type I am looking for, except I'd like it to be bigger as my Sierra cause cars these days get bigger but I prefer older cars.
Drenthe rapporteert
Dylan Evans
Bump for interest
Gavin Cruz
Rover SD1. You better start believing in God and praying daily for the reliability though.
Levi Stewart
Opel senator
Daniel Ward
Bodykit and lights should fit an opel senator from 1986, if you want an LHD holden VL, take that as a base
Robert Cook
I've seen this one in real life and have fallen in love with it. It was a VandenPlas edition.
Tyler Jones
Renault 25
Jose Richardson
No, it's obviously an Opel Calibra, a sports coupe Opel built from the late 80s to mid 90s. It's based on the Opel Vectra platform.
Nathan Reed
Pre-facelift Ford Scorpio
Jaxson Jones
FIRST GEN YOU MEAN?
Jason Murphy
Bro relax, I appreciatie all help haha.
This is a Scorpio MKI pre-facelift. The MKII has frog-eyes
Austin Rodriguez
o shit I was eating and had my keyboard upside down so I didn't notice the caps :))
Jordan Thompson
There are 2 gens. The second one looks like an American made one, although it isn't. Facelifted ones have a slightly bigger grill and I found them inappropriate. Just to clear things out.
Sebastian Scott
This is the european MKII
Gabriel Walker
Honking for more suggestions.
Taurus 1995, Rover 3500 and Renault 25 so far very nice candidates
Isaac Ross
B3 Passat
Gavin Martinez
And it's already been mentioned twice, that's what I get for posting before reading the thread.
Daniel Martinez
Some foxbody Thunderbirds also have the closed-nose look but they're probably hard to come by
Dominic Johnson
These give me a raging boner, goddamn. Hard to obtain here though. I think even hard to obtain in America aren't they?
Jordan Cruz
Yeah, people just bought Mustangs instead so they're not very common even in the US.
Jonathan Moore
Was the Thunderbird a more luxery sportscar or..?
Nathaniel Perez
They were "personal luxury" coupes, so yeah, softer and fancier than the Mustang (which was all about performance per dollar).
Gavin Rodriguez
they tend to be very rare, especially in decent condition. With few people who bought them along with them usually never taken care of, they are very difficult to come by.
Its sad, because its the greatest car ford has ever made
Kevin Walker
what's with /o and liking old cars? i mean understand if it's something classic but no, everything from 1990 and backwards is talked about here. is this board mentally ill because it's creepy being stuck in the past.
Ryder Davis
5 for sale in Germany after quick look, this is promising. Never knew they were delivered to Europe
Camden Nelson
Because no money
Angel Hall
Could be imports as well, and if someone went through the trouble of importing a car it's likely they've taken decent care of it too.
Carson Howard
They have a certain appereance that new cars miss.
For one: I like straight lines in a car, looking at new cars today not one single line is straight, making even luxory saloons having the 'egg' lines.
Mason King
Here's an Eagle Vision. Not sure if the grill is closed enough for you
Elijah Evans
>half of Veeky Forums is poor >modern cars (in general) are not as interesting for enthusiasts. Overly complicated, not designed for easy maintenance/repairs, bland driving experience >also nostalgia
What do you think about these OP? Available in europe and actually pretty decent.
Joseph Sullivan
It's a beauty
Jack Scott
I love the nose, but I honestly do not like the rest of the design. Honda is veeeery reliable though
Easton Perry
check out the gen after that, looks way better
Logan Torres
They must have gone through a lot of trouble just to find one to import
Camden Cox
We have agencies that will import any US car for you. You just order one and they'll find you one.
Costs a lot though.
Jaxon Hall
Depends of your definition of "closed grill" but since you posted an E39 I guess an XM could satisfy this criteria Post facelift is a bit more open
Jonathan Sanders
These were sold as chrysler vision in europe, kinda rare but there should be 1 or 2 around.
Certainly comfy and wide enough
Blake Morgan
Foxbody Mustang
Jack Jones
Literally 5 minutes in ms paint
Julian Anderson
Literally 5 minutes in ms paint, getting the bonnet painted isn't gonna be free though
Joseph Howard
Pic related would be even easier since you'd only have to make one block-off plate for the grille.
Robert Young
Yes but the body would still not meet the width and length for me.
In size I wanted to be the most near to a new type Mondeo / Fusion.
Dominic Rogers
Yes, correct! Lovely car, never drove one though
Ethan Peterson
this isn't a concept?
Christian Morales
Oh no, it's very real.
Jason Thompson
Ah, een mede noorderling. /noordholland/ hier.
Ethan Sanders
Groningen is mijn geboorte provincie, bedoel ik. Woon momenteel in Noord-Holland als een randstad cuck.
Brody Collins
Fuck, if they did a three-door, less elongated version of he SD1, it would be mine in a heartbeat.
John Cook
Volvo 480 Shame its fwd tho, but hey it got flip ups.
Jonathan Morgan
Ai dat lijkt me best kut als je van auto's houdt. Ik studeer hier ook in het noorden en als de zon ondergaat kan ik zo mooi touren over de landweggetjes, daar kan niks tegenop
James Allen
Aero cars are neat
Oliver Fisher
...
Brayden Gonzalez
This kinda fits? Though it looks more like an integrated grill
Ian Phillips
Dutch women are complicated and unsubmissive, I fell in love with one and she pissed the fuck outta me.
If you have a sierra why would you upgrade? I have a mk4 escort and it runs fine with good maintenance.
Cameron Sullivan

Jace Turner
You mean Nasenbär?
Justin Price
Mazda MX-6 MK 2 Prelude Opel Manta MK 1 Xantia
and pic related
Adrian Bell
>Nasenbär That's Nazispeak.
Nathaniel Howard

Camden Peterson
I always liked that below-bumper grill. I liked the 480 in general, most just look like absolute shit though.
Jason Rogers
And Dutch is cheesespeak, so what?
Isaac Thompson
GM Brazil made a restyling for ascona (monza in south america) so he could look-alike the omega from 1991 to 1996.
Nolan Edwards

Ryan Rodriguez

Ayden Ward
What about the sexiest Corolla ever made?
Liam Hall
This and the CRX are one of the best automotive asses in history.
Noah Gonzalez
We got this one instead.
Cooper Nguyen
Which is the GOAT Corolla.
Zachary Reyes
Arguably the least sexy corrola ever made. That bug eye period of Toyota is one to forget.
Christopher Russell
S12?
Jace Hall
Bug eyes ruined so many fucking cars. Even the W210 fucking E-Class had them and it was awful. The fuck were those fucking designers thinking.
