My brother took a trip to Iran for three weeks. It was an unusual destination to travel and not many tourists were travelling there. Here are some of the vehicles he saw in the streets of Teheran. Let's try to identify these cars :wink:

the most popular car in the street is not Paykan anyomore. It's Saipa Nasim and its many variants (Kia Pride).

That Lada looks like it hasn’t been moved or used in years.

I'm surprised some of the American cars are still running, but I suppose Iranians are as clever as Cubans when it comes to maintaining old cars.

I may go to Europe on a school trip next summer. When I go, this is exactly what I'll do. :grin:

If any Brits want to see a Paykan in the flesh, there's one in the Coventry Transport Museum:

Peugeot Pars (facelifted 405) by Iran Khodro.

Pars Khodro is a different company.

BTW, did you know Iran Khodro builds a "Peugeot RD", which is the old Paykan RWD chassis mated with the 405's body?

It's now positive that I am going to Europe for a while. I hope to get pictures, but I'm not sure if they'll be posted. They won't be if I take a disposible camera. I leave tomorrow and will come back 10 days later. :smile:
