Sedan/Estate Thread

1992 → Pippuri Oinas, the predecessor to the 1999 Pippuri Oinas that I posted a couple months ago.

This was the last independently produced Pippuri model before the Finnish brand merged with Sampo to create SPA-Motor, and as such shares no components with any Sampo models. Sporting the old style Pippuri logo with the P letters forming a key, the car has styling akin to pre-VW Bentley, combined with European sports sedan sensibilities.


The Oinas slots squarely into the compact executive class with the likes of the 3-series, Alfa 156 shown here in four bodystyles/variants:
GL : Grand Liftback (Beige)
SC : Sporting Coupé (Copper)
GW : Grand Wagon (Silver)
GS : Grand Safari (Blue)


All models are equipped with traditional Pippuri big block flat 6 engines, with the GL and GW being available as standard with the 145hp high torque low power engine for better economy, and the SC and GS offering the higher output 195hp with more advanced fuel injection and larger displacement for better performance on the trail or the track.
