Well, cars are mainly built by companies that build cars.  ;)
Do you mean that they still build cars?
Title: Re: Wendax 1428
Post by: Paul Jaray on December 17, 2014, 03:51:19 PM
There are cars built by companies that produce other stuff, provide services or goods...cars made for advertising purpouses, to showcase theyr products or whatever...that is what I had in mind.  :D
So, this is  car made by an estabilished company, that made cars.
Was this the only model?
