Sadly, this car has only been sold from 1994 to 1998, but you can feel nostalgia when reading through the brochure of the Primus Merit Gen 1.
Since the updates ruined my lore data, I will need to wait for the merge with stable to redo all the data provided, and this is something like an interlude until I can proceed sharing my builds. In addition, I still consider using the Wiki, but that´s also quite a huge project with all my brands.
If you want you can “order” a car, just tell me which and I will present it in this thread, so that it almost feels like you got a brand new car delivered.
Have fun reading it! It is marked as “Beta” since grammar and spelling are surely leaving a bit to improve, English is not my native language.

ORDERS
Voxeldust (Discord) ordered a base model without any option in Atlantic Blue uni and blue cloth interior.
@moroza drove the Primus salesman crazy and ordered a 250tds Business wagon with AWD, wood trim, CD sound system, foglamps, xenon headlights, heated leather seats in anthracite, satin back exterior, sport suspension and bodykit as well as the white indicators and tinted taillights.
@xsneakyxsimx recieved a Gasmean-spec 350 Avance wagon, because there this selection was possible. Carphone and sport steering wheel meet the optional AWD and LSD, the color combination of Petrol Mica and cognac leather is surely daring.
@abg7 went full 90s with the Purple Rain Artcolor on his 350 Avance coupé, and wood trim is surely an unique touch when going for a blue (!) interior. A car phone reveals the successful businessman. The Sport steering wheel is standard on all 350 coupes, so it is there without being explicitly ordered.
The car for @Fantic2000 is very similar, but despite the lack of wood, the colors are very classy, combining Chardonnay Red and Beige.
@conan ordered also a car with the Purple Rain Artcolor, but gray part-leather interior. Instead of the coupé, this is the rather rare compact, and in the Sport trim, the highest available for this model. Instead of the more aggressive 200 DOHC, the more comfortable 250 is an interessing choice, as well as adaptive dampers and auto a/c - this is not the full option car, so the owner ordered wisely what was really vital for him. The cruise control really shows that this car is considered for daily convenient use.
@Ludvig, opting for another Compact Sport seems to not care about resale value and mixes the Artcolor garish green with cognac full-leather interior. The engine is this time the sporty 200, and sunroof, cruise control and the large radio seem to be extras that make up a bit the colors for the second hand market.
The - until now - most conservative order came from @Knugcab . A 300 coupé but in Elegance trim with Automatic, adding the projector headlights and POIC from the Avance, the uni white seems very modest and is combined with cognac interior. The car recieved an LSD, quite rare on Elegance models. Fire extinguisher and M1 wheels are the other extras.
@Hshan ordered his car as well with a cognac interior, using wood trim like Knugcab. But this time it is an Advance sedan - and with POIC as standard, there is not much visual difference. What is however there is a manual, organizing the powerband of the 300 engine, and some tinted lamps from the Sport model, a popular dealer option. The fire extinguisher also seems to be increasingly popular here, as it is the LSD for 300 models… What is unique is a delete of model and trim badges. This car is a “First Edition” as Knugcabs, so both 300 with LSD have also ECS. Uni black instead of the metallic Satin Black is also an interessing choice.
Another sedan was ordered by @shibusu with silver exterior and beige interior. The 250tds was combined with a manual gearbox, Options were selected wisely, this car does have the xenon headlights, but no POIC system or an integrated phone.
I hope the fine wasn’t high.
