Cars you don't see many of anymore

[Franco Cozzo]

Driving about Melbourne it's getting rare to see particular cars on the roads as time goes on, say from 2010 to 2020 the landscape of our 'car parc' has significantly changed as the older vehicles retire.

Hyundai Excel is something you hardly see these days compared to 10 years ago where it seemed they were still everywhere with their annoying rear fog light on.

Hyundai Getz has all but disappeared.

Ford Festiva and it's Mazda 121 brother were about in numbers which you hardly see.

EF/EL Falcon doesn't appear on the roads too much either.

Also 1990s Jap imports like R33 Skyline is uncommon now where as a decade ago there were heaps of the povvo spec GTS-25/T variations kicking about Melbourne.

What have you noticed over the decades where there were heaps and then they just seemingly disappeared from the roads as time progressed?
