Time for another crop?

Four days without even so much as one tentative guess suggests we need a little bit more to go on......:)......

Opel Adam

+1, although since the person who posted it is from Scotland, it is most likely a Vauxhall Adam. Opel Adam should still count as spot on.

Well done for spotting the Adam, a failed attempt to rejuvenate the Corsa, which will quickly fade into obscurity.

If no once has anything then, here is another red car:

The only member of the family I was ever in was an WW2 vintage ex-Navy 2 cylinder Jowett Bradford van, which my father borrowed in Lerwick from his raw wool buyer, to take me to Scalloway to see where the Shetland Bus Norwegian fishing boats left from during WW2, smuggling resistance fighters into Norway. I had been a big fan of the Shetland Bus serial on the BBC Light Service, which was a dramatised version of their exploits and persuaded my father to take me to Shetland on one of his wool buying trips there. Sadly the Beeb has not reissued a CD of this series and speaking some years ago to the Scalloway Museum, they think that the BBC has either lost or destroyed their recordings. I just have to hope that like the early editions of Desert Island Discs, a recording in private hands turns up. The Bradford van was not a transport of delight. If it ever had had shock absorbers, they were long worn out and the engine made more noise and smoke than power.
