"1967 Lancia Flavia 1.8 on display at Joondalup in Western Australia for Classic Cars and Coffee." Found by fellow ex-blogger and now "only" friend Mark - FB is just great (as Mark).
Side-note: Ingo and I got married in Joondalup.
Wiki: "The Lancia Flavia (Tipo 815/819/820) is an executive car produced by Lancia in Italy..."
@Ingo... where else 🤣💚🤍💓
(Ingo had some Italian encounters on our travels throughout Australia)
My Dad must´ve named me Flavia cause he was pretty sure the blonde hair will turn reddish.
I never knew, but at Siemens my full name was used by teams and a student found out about the meaning.
My first name, Iris, chose my Dad because he was, amongst other, an optometrist.
Mark is clever, he said, "glad he wasn´t a heart surgeon, your name might be 'Aorta' ;-)".
Funny, usually key is on the right. Only thing different is wiper and indicator - even the gear shift thankfully is the same order like here.
On one Christmas we got picked up by our Monday´s host daughter who lives in Europe.
She wanted to turn left and turned on the wiper, followed by cursing 🤣
Was very familiar!
This certainly is for Tom´s Signs2.
Thanks, Mark - and FB!
Here are some bee-architects (speaking of FB I got that out there, too - I hate that I never find articles there again!) ...

Nice car and it has your name. Lucky you :) We also found an antique car near Margaret River.
Karina loves to drive when she's here, but just like I do if I drive in Europe now, I tend to use the wrong thing for the flicker or wipers.
That is a cool car. We have cars and coffee here too. I wonder if it's universal. Hope you're having a great day. hugs-Erika
Very cool car named after you! We had Summer yesterday, it's gone now. I hope you're having Summer weather
It looks like a nice car. I don't think I have ever seen one, Iris.
Sami, yes, very funny.
Haha, yes, I think if I had to drive in Perth again... huiii. Especially dangerous with the turning right!
When back in Germany in 1999 I looked both ways, no car, turned right and drove on the left side! Luckily it was in the village and I had no accident!
