There is some blob in place where the "Touring" badge used to be. Version, which, judging by the period sale materials, could be to get in UK since 1971...
I guess the badge was "Touring" till the end, but curiously since ca 1972 British brochures started to use "Tourer" name.

^Will be good for reference.
Interesitng - despite the mentioned dates in at least two British brochures so called "G"-type trim and "Hondamatic" are next to each other (cars in one of them had 1968-1969 reg. plates)

^ oops - I missed a line - the 600 was announced for UK in Nov 67 with Hondamatic option, but nothing actually arrived before June 68. Unclear from the Glass's info if Hondamatic was offered before Aug 70, but it may well have been.
