So it has to be Talbot... still no idea, they stopped in '85-ish and that car looks much more modern.
It's not Talbot either.

I made a deeper research for more information about my car, and it turns out that it is actually Canadian (from Quebec).

Sigh, I'm very sorry for that. :(
But I found it in French forum and the people there put it under France in their car catalog, I don't know what to say...

Someone can take my turn if you deem it necessary.

Is it the Campagna T-Rex, then? If it's Canadian, that changes everything!
 
I... it is actually Canadian (from Quebec)....

Only manufacturer I can think of beginning with T in Canada is Tudhope (Terradyne make AVs I think). Tudhope are long-bust, no? I'm struggling here :D

I may have found it;

Its name is Talisman, it's a car designed by the same man who designed the T-Rex. Is this the car you wanted, Tsu?
 
Plus... if it's T-Rex related then that's a motorbike, not a car :D

EDIT: Treed by @Niku Driver HC, and it's a 4-wheeler :D

Well, it has four wheels, if anything, so it's not quite a motorbike. ;) It's also made by a company called DC Competition, so the shoe has to fit.

Yup, I meant if it was a 3-wheeler like the Campagna T-Rex is :D

I'm not sure the manufacturer begins with T as the clue said though, it's being built by DC Competition.

It's still very confusing for me, very. When I found it, the people had put it as the "Talisman DC COMPETITION" and under the French section of their car catalog. :boggled:
 
Yes that's the car. :D

I still apologise for not having made a research about it before and having trusted the French car forum's information right away.

It's fine, just try to make the clues a bit more clear next time, this one was a real head-scratcher. ;)

Since I got it right (at long last), allow me to present the next car:

I'm European, and somewhat ugly. But I did have some military background, I was in the Navy once. Who am I?
 
Ford Escort?

With those wheels it has to be a Citroen Visa. What's the navy connection?

The continent is right, but not quite there yet. Perhaps you may have to cross the English Channel (from England, of course) to get to the point...

Well, that was quite quick, it is a Citroen Visa! Or to be more exact:

The GTI. The Navy reference is an allusion to the (quite frankly) hilarious television ad for the car, when it raced atop an aircraft carrier against a fighter jet:



Well done, you're up next. 👍
 
Damn, son. :p
 
Haha, never seen that advert :D

So... can you name this car? It's European...

All you give us is a taillight? Really? :lol:

A single headlight? Damm son, you have raised the difficulty once again. How old of a car are we talking about here? 1950?

Also, I believe that both I and Ten have broken a rule of this thread; not show just a single part (i.e. rims or lights) of a car, and that one must show a bit more than than in order to help recognize the car.

20-30 years newer than that.

An MPV when they hadn't really been thought of.

Headlight was like that as standard. You'll know it when you see it.

Fiat 600 Multipla?

Also, read the last part of my previous post, I fear that you may have a bit of a mistake with the picture.

Edit: Actually, never mind, posting only the lights of a car isn't against the rules.
 
Fiat 600 Multipla?

Nope. More, 'ow you say, French.

OP
only post whats reasonable. 👍 i.e. head lights, grill, something recognizable.

Mais non, c'est bon :D

The light is very recognisable. Once you recognise it.
 
Vainqueur, that's the word. Sounds funny in English, but that's a story for another day.

Datsun 2000?

Quite.

Also, not a Datsun, but... you never know how close you are to its boss. And you can keep the 2000, it'll come in handy.

Ah, I was going to correct myself to Datsun 510. But not a datsun... Nissan 2000 GT? (I think that was what I was thinking of in the first place).
