Certainly looks like one. The Japanese did some very interesting little cars, which we never got due to importation quotas. There was more money sending bigger cars over. The odd one out being Honda. Pity as a Subaru, Mitsi or Mazda would be interesting. The Japanese went on to create the K class cars, which are probably the most sophisticated microcars made. Again not really imported here, a few Cappuccinos and Beats got in but not enough to make spares or servicing cheap. The Cappuccino soon got nicknamed the Scrappuccino as they rust badly. No great resale value and a bit of a bargain if your handy with a spanner. Mind you why have a miniture MX5 when the real one is the same sort of money, Humph.
