According to that it was Chevette in your place.
My father did have B and C models of those, several both actually, that car is just hopeless on snow compared to 340 or 360.
That red one is Kadett E, called egg kadett (direct translation), it does not drink much fuel, that is only good thing with it.
Very confusing these different names, they must be mad to have idea to use different names there and rest of world.
Then my Father had Vauxhall Viva too, actually two of them, one had hole at floor and it was really shitty in every other way too, always needed to be pushing it as it got stuck to snow, wipers were not possible to be used at full speed as they flew off, and it was not too safe when crashed either, ironically other car at same model drove to front at intersection, engine got loose because of that. Second one was better
Once neighbor got stuck at parking lot with his 300 series BMW, car did not move forward or backwards, but he could push it quite well, my 360 however had no trouble at all.
360 has more weight at rear than most RWD cars.
