1986 Honda Civic 4WD Wagon
We’re going back a bit now, but there was a time when small cars were generally offered as sedans, coupes and/or hatchbacks, and station wagons. The 1993 Ford Escort commercial below features a four-body-style lineup, including an arguably handsome wagon.
Sadly, not only is the small station wagon a thing of the past, the wagon itself is all but gone. Sure, Volvo still sells a few, including the dashingly handsome V60, but there are no mainstream wagons left, and certainly no wagons at all priced under $40,000.
Seen here is a collection of a dozen print ads featuring small station wagons. Each ad seems to focus on practicality, with an occasional suggestion that these tidy little cargo haulers were also, somehow, a little luxurious.
Note: At the request of Stan Milam, host of the The Stan Milam Show, heard daily on Janesville Wisconsin’s WCLO Radio, the collection below includes not one, but two Ford Pinto ads. Enjoy!
