1 Mini Car, Romi-Isetta in Blue

I love its color and its shape. I was impressed with its performance.

Today I was in central Porto sipping a chai-latte close to the church, “Igreja dos Clerigos” when I saw this little car very close to me.

It’s blue and so small, so small…so cute.

It was in an area with lots of street traffic and the car was terrific. All eyes on it.

Then, I post the picture of the car in a WhatsApp group of friends from Brazil.

My friend Petronio immediately said that this kind of car was the first to be produced in series in Sao Paulo in the 1950s.

And I didn’t know.

Later today I decided to look for it on youtube and found this little video from 2017 with the same nice little blue car…(in Portuguese).
