Solid
looking early Visa 11 RE of December 1983, frequently spotted in The Hague,
August 2001. Sadly, it was wrecked in January 2002, leaving the owner no
other choice than to let a Visa Leader take its place. |

The girl at the wheel apparently was in a hurry: she exceeded the speed
limit in a big way (yes, you can in a Visa!), and it took me quite some
difficulty to catch her on film. Fortunately, there will be no ticket this
time... |

few days later, I spotted the same car again. The lady driver, who just
appeared as I took the photo, was convinced that no website could ever benefit
by including her car. Probably she wasn't a trueVisa aficionado... |
