   Wow this is such a random rebadge, didn’t they also rebadge ford’s as VW’s in South America too?

   Looks European. Front is VW Jetta Mk1, back is Ford Escort Mk2. Weird.

   Used to see these in the U.K. in the 80s but my memory is telling me that they were more often a Talbot.

   But yeah latin American rebadging is weird. My father in law in Colombia currently has a Renault Duster which in the U.K. is a Dacia Duster.
