With thanks to Ebbro for modelling these cars, which are not often seen.

Daihatsu Compagno Spider - the Compagno was the first Japanese car marketed in the UK, although, I'm not sure if any were actually sold....

Hino Contessa 1300 Coupe - Hino's first cars were Renaults built under licence. They were later absorbed into Toyota & still make commercial vehicles.

Isuzu 117 Coupe - styled by Giugiaro, if it looks familiar, compare it with the Fiat Dino Coupe.
