Mitsubishi sales in the UK only started in 1974, when the importer opted to Colt as its local marque name. One of the more unusual models offered early on to British buyers was the Galant GTO 2000 GSR coupé, available as a performance flagship for the new marque. #carbluesky

The ancestor of generations of Volvo estate cars, the 1.6-litre 210 Station Wagon is described in this 1961 North American leaflet as 'versatile...with sports characteristics'. Known in Sweden as the Duett, the design - with roots in the late 1940s - lasted until 1969. #carbluesky

In 1991 the Alsace-based 4X4 specialist Dangel came up with this interesting conversion of one of the staples of life in rural France, the Citroën C15 diesel van. A simple control on the dashboard engaged the system, but the extra cost meant that only a few hundred were built. #carbluesky

The BMW 1 series had been launched in 2004 as a new entry-level RWD 5-door hatchback. From 2007 more bodystyles were added, including the coupé, offered in 128i and 135i forms in this American brochure, and described as providing 'pure driving exhilaration'. #carbluesky

For small businesses seeking a practical vehicle with a touch of class, this 1973 brochure offered the low-spec Peugeot 504 commercial estate, perfect for 'transporting cumbersome loads, equipment and several people comfortably at the same time'. #carbluesky

Holden's full-size Kingswood had arrived in 1968, and was an archetypal Australian design, with a choice of 6-cylinder and V8 engines. This brochure on the 1970 HG version dubs it - in typical language of the day - 'the driving man's car', showing him as the head of a large family. #carbluesky

This 1983 British brochure focused in particular on the new GL-trimmed versions of the Yugo 311 and 513 from Zastava. The text noted the extra equipment added 'a touch of class', with the two ladies shown on the back cover no doubt there to underline that point. #carbluesky

Halloween seems like the perfect time to dust the cobwebs off this 1987 Fiat brochure, with its decidedly strange cover featuring the latest version of the ageing X1/9 sports car. The model provided a 'warm and cosy' haven from the blood-curdling terrors of the night. #carbluesky

This striking Bitter Type 3 saloon was based on an Opel Omega B platform. Intended to be built by Karmann, it was hoped the 3-litre model (sometimes called the Bitter Berlina) would revive the German luxury brand and appeal to European and US customers, but the project came to nothing. #carbluesky

The addition of a 1300cc model to the popular 1100 range helped British Leyland secure it the top spot as the UK's best selling car from 1968 to 1971. It is shown in Austin 1300 form in this brochure, which featured period photos rather than the line drawings of the previous BMC era. #carbluesky

The Alfetta berlina was one of Alfa Romeo's key new models underpinning its early-'70s expansion plans, and remained in production for well over a decade. At the time of this 1976 brochure a 1.6-litre base model had joined the original, plusher 1.8 version. #carbluesky

This stylish 1959 US brochure on what was called 'the English Ford line', featured the second-generation Consul 4-cylinder, plus the 6-cylinder Zephyr and its luxury Zodiac stablemate. Large cars by UK standards, across the Atlantic they slotted in below Ford's American sedan line-up. #carbluesky
