Well, might as well get all this stuff out on paper. Going to be posting some of my vehicles, manufacturers, and their deepest lore here.
CLAUSEWITZ-LANDAU : C-L for short whenever possible, for sanity. Merger of German coachbuilder Clausewitz and overly ambitious American carmaker Landau, producing mostly vehicles in the premium to luxury range, with several entry level models and city-cars.
MERP : C-L’s perpetually troubled offroader division.
TENGU: A Japanese motorcycle manufacturer which broke into the car market in the early 80s, making bargain-bin small cars and sports models.
HENWAY : American cars. It’s big, it’s fast, it’s a Henway.
ANOMIE : hon hon hon monsieur, can we interest you in a fine hot hatch?
CAPULET : Italian performance carmaker purchased by Henway after they nearly went under in the mid-70s.
