A bit of old advertising now, but who can tell me what car was being represented by the snazzy drawing?

Nope - looks like Wendax got it.

Yep, Wendax gets the point! Not immediately obvious when comparing what the actual car looks like...

Quite a long way from the drawing to the real car. I just happened to find another Stanza ad with that catchy slogan. Otherwise I wouldn't have guessed that one.

Google "your futuristic motoring today" with quotation marks and Nissan Stanza is the only result. At least on Google.de. ;)

The resemblance is more visible if you compare it to a Stanza 3-door:

I know who took that photo! That's probably the only surviving 3dr Stanza in the UK and I have an unnatural urge to bring it home and give it the TLC it deserves...  ::)

It worked here, too. Just some minutes too late.
