Yes, shown in the pic is a Chrysler / Simca HORIZON.

Horizon is the acceptable answer since there were also Talbot Horizons.

Thank you 'terrabytetango', 'Elvis_Pil' and 'Devinda_Z' for your efforts.

We are... There were quite a few of these running around at one time (mostly as chryslers I believe)... I think there are only one or two survivors because they tended to rust into dust quite quickly!

I have never seen these cars in SL.

That photo was taken during a trip to Italy, in my childhood (1987).

Even then it was quite old.

What I never forget is its unique engine note / noise.

I've seen one reduced to its component parts thanks to the creeping Tin worm.... This was in a suburb of colombo. Saw another somewhere in the hill country, can't recall quite where at this point.

Really ?

There might have been only a handful of them here.

Otherwise I wouldn't have missed spotting one of them.
