You did that in the other thread as well. I'm assuming you're having trouble reading the OP:

So your company is expatriating you to a new location, and you have quite a few options to choose from. You even get a free vehicle out of the deal, but the catch is that your vehicle must be one named after the location you settle in.

There, I posted it again.

It was a Ford Granada, named after the city in Spain and not Grenada in the Caribbean.

Other place named cars:

Seat Ronda (Andalucian town in Spain)
Ford Cortina (Cortina d'Ampezzo in the Dolomites)
Triumph Dolomite
Triumph Toledo
Fiat Siena (Tuscany, Italy)
Hyundai Toscani (the car that was called Tiburon in the US)
Hyundai Veracruz
Kia Sorento
Bentley Brooklands
Opel Ascona (in the Ticino, Switzerland)
Maserati Kyalami (South Africa)
de Tomaso Deauville (posh resort on the Normandy coast of France)
Austin Montego
Lotus Evora (it's a town in the Alantejo in Portugal)
VW Santana (village in Madeira)

What about the Lancia cars that were named after the roads leading to Rome? Flaminia, Aprilia, Flavia etc? and the Trevi (fountain in Rome).
Lada named some of their cars after Russian rivers: Niva, Riva and Samara.

I love the scenery of the Dolomites, so a Sprint version of one of those Triumphs in that area could be good, though the more predictable answers of the Ferrari Italia or California would be rather tempting.

Great question, though.

That's what I'm here for!

Introducing the 1988 Seville STS:



You can just see the little STS badge on the boot.

I didn't realize there was a STS for that generation.

[TBR]

I thought it stood for Sports Touring Sedan or something like that.

CTS: Catera Touring Sedan
STS: Seville Touring Sedan
DTS: Deville Touring Sedan

The system kind of went to hell once they began to expand their line-up beyond that.

[Colin]

Few more came to mind:

Opel (and Chevy) Monza (Italy)
Kia (and Panther) Rio
Mercury Monterey
Mazda Montrose (the first gen 626 was so called in UK) - that's a town in Scotland
Renault Laguna (Laguna Beach, CA)
Volvo and Toyota Land-Cruiser Amazon

Doesn't change my answer to the question, though.

Don't forget Volga, including the lovely GAZ-24.

Good catch.

[Laconian]

Good catch.

Also applicable to the OT's premise! Though, not many roads to drive on, since the place may or may not actually exist.

I got it: Bentley Mulsanne at the Mulsanne straight on the track!

I've been playing along up until now, that was just a joke.

You're damn right you do.  Not that it matters.
