"Turbo" wrappers. Chapter 13. #63. Opel Kadett.

Just Kadett

What do you think when see that car on the street? Just the ordinary 80s hatch... Nothing more. There's no any surprize to see Kadett E in USSR cities of the 90s. The wrapper itself wasn't rare, nice nor interesting. It was usual, evenmore it was banal. As if now you'll see the wrapper with ...Lanos or Logan ... or Nexia.

"Turbo" wrappers. Chapter 12. #62. Tyrrell 011.

Candy Car.

Does advertisement work? I'm sure it does work, the question is the time that should pass until one will buy the advertised object! It was 1990 and I had never seen "Candy" logo before this wrapper. Also I didn't know what this word could mead. I used vocabulary to translate it to Russian (it was tasty and sweet). And my first washing machine is "Candy".

"Turbo" wrappers. Chapter 11. #61. Volkswagen Scirocco.

Wind's name.

Scirocco is simple but very nice car for me. When I had got this wrapper I couldn't read the name of model. Then my father explained me that it was the name of wind blowing in Italy from the south. And I had remembered it well. This time one couldn't find Scirocco on the SU strets. But it successor "Corrado" was well known in the 90s as "mafia car".

"Turbo" wrappers. Chapter 10. #60. Mercedes 190.

Wow, Mers!

This wrapper invoked natural feeling "Wow, Mers!" when one saw it first time. The car presented on it is the most usual Mercedes 190 or W201. There weren't a lot of Mercedes-Benz cars in SU cities streets, most of them were W123 or even W115 this time. So 190-model looked rather contemporary for the beginning of 1990s.

"Turbo" wrappers. Chapter 9. #59. Motorcycles.

All bikes in one!

As I'm not specialist in motorcycles I've decided to put 'em all to one post (because I just cannot leave 'em unmentioned). So we could see all the bikes from Turbo wrappers here. I won't supply 'em with descriptions, cause I don't want to fill Internet with another boring bullshit from a person who isn't inside of a theme.

"Turbo" wrappers. Chapter 8. #58. Ford Mustang

Is it the legend?

This wrapper was really rare. I think it was one of these few I'd got in the end of collection. Wrapper gave strange feeling. The name Mustang told - "it's legendary American muscle car", but the car looks just like a big hatch... I remember as I thought "May be that's the mistake... There's no any feeling of power, no sportivity, nothing to be legend as it was claimed." This time I didn't know that the name is true.

"Turbo" wrappers. Chapter 7. #57. Opel Omega.

Nice Omega.

This car was rather good known in USSR. It was one of the most popular cars from abroad in our roads then as its predecessor Record E. It's normal, that the car looks like modernized and smoothened record. So I feel it like that these days. Near 1990-91 my father bought '80 Record E1 and this way Omega became one of the clearest foreign cars. Anyway it was pleasant to see in on wrapper.
