• The London Motor shciw saw the UK relaunch of FSO, with a new importer and revised products. FSO Cars Ltd, a BritishDutch-Polish joint venture, has established 100 new dealers which will sell the Polish-built cars and commercials from January.
The FR) Caro Pickup will be powered by Citroen's 1.9-litre Xl1D diesel, rather than the 1.6litre petrol unit fitted when the vehicle was last seen in the UK in 1990.
FSO claims a payload of 1,075kg, with a flat-bottomed, 2x1.5m galvanised dropside body. The pickup should cost about £6,000 (ex VAT), substantially undercutting its competitors such as Peugeot's 504.
HO hopes to introduce a number of tipper, motor home and box-van variants.
