skoda, maybe 110.
I watched a re-run of James May's Cars of the People last night was, interesting because it was about shit British cars like the one in post 2060.
I am talking about the not so mighty Allegro.
James was scathing about the commo unions and shit management that resulted in the miscarriage of that shitbox,
He compared it against the new Mazda 323.chalk and cheese in quality,build etc,no wonder BL bit the dust.
Skoda 110R :drive:Quote:

The second one from the left looks an awful like a Triumph Spitfire Mk 2. (Which was my very first car)Quote:

Lucas electrics for example.

Hmm. No radiator grille. Air vents at the back. What do you think?Quote:

All hail Sir Nev
... you may rise, Sir Nev when ready :)
Yes Neverna right
I thought Simca 1100 van. But wheelbase looks a bit longer.
a good training programme for posters on this thread.

Stopped when they started to repeat.
they didnt repeat for me.
I got to 20 and E-type and Viper had come up twice.
Pffft that's easy!
It's a Nevmobile 3000, innit. :D
^^ Those wheels are knock-offs!!
Lets see how good he is at knowing his cars now:)Quote:

agreed looks like Dills had a fiddle with a 1960 250 GT SWB Berlinetta Competizione

^ That would have been my second guess.

Modesty Nev, its an endearing trait. :) i'm not sure my call is right, trouble is there was some personalisation in the 60's .... besides Dill
I'm sure you are right, NPT.

Pretty expensive motor: 10-12 million quid before Dillinger got his spanners on it. :)

tiz a thing of beauty, and in car terms i agree with Tax in that car beauty faded from mid 70s on - of course quality increased from 90's meaning a 15 year wasteland of fucktards designing, building and selling shite - sorry Ant but for the money you pay for cc'd up 70-s saloon you could get curves and a lifetime of oily work but christ at least once you've finished getting a horn over women (unless you've got Simon43's doc number) an E Type would still give you a twitch.
My go, we'll park Dill's and wait for Lulu to get his Dinky copy.
This may be easy or not.

fuk its small sorry... teaser
looks very much like a riley pathfinder, below, from 1957, but the proportions are not quite the same.
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/...5fb115_b-1.jpg
your picture is very small, but the number plate doesnt look like a uk number plate and the hubcaps and rear passenger window are wrong.
its certainly not american (and if it is not a riley or armstrong siddely sapphire) , it must be european. it is more flowing and certainly more pleasing to the eye than the harsher german designs of the period, and it lacks the eccentricity of french offerings of that time, so i would go for an italian car.
is it a lancia?? late 50's.
nice try Tax but no, i#m going to leave this one stewing, after all this thread is if for teasers. If no one gets it i'll pop more tease on 2moz

Dave's the winner. Like a typical bloke i was going to string it out but once i'd started came too quick. :)
Speaking of Alpha's ...
