An Alfa Romeo Giulietta. Unrelated to the first Giulietta or the upcoming 2010 Giulietta, this model sits on an Alfetta platform and was only sold in Europe from 1977 to 1985:

That VW Transporter is of the '68-72 variety; in '73, the front turn signals moved up above the headlights, from down near the bumper like the one pictured. The 1972 Bus is easy to pick out if you can see both front & rear signals - '72 was the first year of the larger tail/brake lights that continued through the rest of its run.
Thought you might be interested to see another Citroen H-something featured in the auto-blogosphere this week: http://hooniverse.com/blog/2010/06/16/fellow-hoon-buys-greatest-shed-ever/
That HY is quite a find, though one has to wonder how that ended up in the northern US.
On the Transporter, I had a 1973 model (http://ranwhenparked.blogspot.com/2009/01/type-2.html), the first year with the turn signals below the windshield.
What I want is a 1971; it's arguably the best year for bay windows (in the US anyways) because you get front disc brakes, independent suspension in the back and you still keep the type 1 engine.
Thanks for reading.
