What a cute little car that Toyota is.
Those 3-wheel Reliants will always remind me of Delboy, Rodney and Grand-dad.

The last two words in the name refer to the fact that when the roof is off you get a lot of fresh air.

This pic of one in a street scene of the day should give it away.

Close; the Oceane is the convertible I want the coupe (pink/red car). And yes it has been suggested that the fresh air name might better have been applied to the convertible.
Interestingly some 1.4 million of the P60 model series which included sedans, estates, convertibles and coupes were made of which 170,070 were coupes. The sedans were also assembled in Australia and estate, ranch or station wagon was made in Australia (and only made in Australia) by Chrysler. The good old days of Australian content requirements. The coupe and convertible were referred to as baby (enfant or mon petite) Thunderbirds as they were seen as a smaller copy of the T - bird.

You can see the resemblance to these T-birds (I think the French even copied the T-bird colour range and combinations):
Of course given the French arrogance the will claim Ford copied from them (I'm of French decent so hopefully I can get away with that comment).

Even the taillights of the Simca were bit of a rip off:
