The original Rodius, sold from 2004-12, was one of the most unusual-looking cars of the modern era and is certainly hard to describe objectively. The strong opinions it provoked may have been behind the decision to move to the more neutral Turismo name in Britain.

The line-drawn illustrations show the Wartburg was aesthetically the match of many western 1.0-litre models of the day, inside and out. Ironically the brochure is from just after the Berlin Wall went up, increasing the isolation of the DDR and heightening east-west tensions.

While the later, square-cut 353 is the archetypal Wartburg, East Germany's most exported marque had an earlier incarnation, the rather stylish 311, made from 1956. This Belgian brochure features the 1000R and better-equipped President saloons.

The 'sit-up-and-beg' Anglia was replaced in 1953 by the far more modern Anglia 100E, but Ford took the opportunity to create the new Popular model. This used the old body and was billed as 'the lowest-priced car in the world'. It had an 1172cc version of the side-valve engine.

The Maranello 4Cycle was marketed in Italy with the slogan 'My Red, My Way'. Features of the design included two-tone paint, suicide doors and a curious pair of triangular rear windows on each side. Red (Rosso Sharm) was one of six geographically-themed colour names.

The ZR was one of a trio of new MG models hastily developed from the existing Rover range after the company split from BMW, and was a sister to the 25. This 2004 brochure shows the model's last-ditch facelift, which included a revised nose and interior changes.

Named after the 75th anniversary of the foundation of Alfa Romeo, the Alfa 75 continued the wedge-shaped theme of its Giulietta predecessor and shared its floorpan and many components. This 1985 brochure in French unusually features a drawing of the car.
