but that was just a pic you found on internet for a vehicle that's not even identical-looking, so I don't see why making a link between that vehicle/plate and the Helecs.Movie vehicle seems to match better with Helecs indeed (finally a second vehicle listed for that make) -- Last edit: 2025-12-31 10:10:02 |
