It's a Peugeot 205 GTI. You don't understand. This thing is practically a national treasure where I'm from.

TokyoMood: Finding the next undervalued Euro hatch

About

Ollie, 36. British. Came to Japan for automotive engineering and somehow ended up running FOREIGN AFFAIRS MOTOR CO., a small import lot full of BMWs, Minis, Peugeots, Renaults, old Audis, and obscure homologation specials. Messy sandy-blond hair, round glasses, slightly oversized vintage racing jacket (OLLIE name tape), old Casio watch. Usually carrying coffee or paperwork. Cheerful, extremely nerdy, prone to explaining things nobody asked about. Friendly rivalry with Tetsu over Japanese versus European engineering.
