Name That Car!

Looks like a 607 to me.

If that's correct, this is next:

Not hard

see what i mean?
goddam peugeot/citreon.......

Peugeot 607. Good job Jay :). It's interesting. I'm a fan of the aggressive looks of Peugeot, and I like the 607 in particular, luxury wise it's a very nice car for the price, yet, it's a Peugeot, a car that you probably spend more money maintaining it than the actual price of the car.

:eek: Don't slander the 607 in Jimster's presence!! ;)

Jay's is the Lancia Thesis. Very interesting and distinctive car. I like it.

Try this one on for size.

I included some of the rim, to make it easy.

Looks like an MG ZT 260.

You'd be correct.

I mean honestly, how easy do you want it? ;)

Ferrari 308?

Nope.

It's 'related' to Ferrari though...

Lancia Stratos?

It is indeed the sexiest rally car ever, the Lancia Stratos

Powered by a Dino V6.

Now figure it out, if no-one gets it first go I'm cutting off Jays supply of midget porn.

alfa romeo

:dunno:

Hardly distinctive!

Yeah that cursed watermark.

The car is fast. Not stupidly fast, but certainly rapid.

Production ceased about '98ish, the model it was based on was introduced about 1988 and based around a Japanese car, the car is not Japanese, however.

edit: d'oh...

No you don't, not yet anyway, the car's not Italian

oh, I thought you were saying I got it. dammit, 26 pages and I still haven't gotten a turn :p

is it a rover?
400 maybe?

Can't tell...

If you use www.imageshack.us to host the pic you won't get a watermark ;)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
YOU ALMOST HAVE BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!


Good God I'm drunk...............

:lol:

The piss posts thread is over here (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=3100895#post3100895) :p

Sterling? I don't know that many sterlings but...

Mk2 Rover Vitesse :dunno:

I dont even know if such a thing exists, but the back definitely looks like a Rover of some sort.

that cabriolet of theirs had rear lights like that but i can't for the life of me remember the numbers/name involved.... it errr.... wasn't something that would stick in my mind....


edit....
and an image of it just came into my mind.
i can picture it.... not only a convertible but also in that horrible light metallic green....
arghhh......

You guys have the right maker :thumbsup:



drunken monkey is closest, it's based off the same car as the cabriolet.



Note: I said it was fast earlier.

Rover 216 Cabrio?

R8?
214/216?416?
coupe turbo?
dammit.... i know next to nothing about rover.....
and their totally nondescript names aren't helping things....

Coupe Turbo was right.



Also known as the "Tomcat"

bleh... i was close :p

Drunken monkey is up, so expect something rare :uhoh:

nah....
just something kooky or something that i think is cool.
give me a moment.....

or something that i think is cool.
.....

ar ya bugger thats hard!!!

chris

looks like something of a geo metro type thing lol

believe it or not, i think that's the only part of the car that i can show that won't give it away.....

hmm... it doesn't ring any bells...

well.... i'm sitting here doing my CAD and it looks like i'll be sitting here quite a while.
if no one gets close, next pic around this time tomorrow (sunday evening).

Well im gonna be up studying for a while as well so at least give us a clue :D


Sunday evening is TG time ;)

clue....? can't be too much of a give away so.....

ack, can't think of a non give-away clue.
or maybe it's because i know it.

ok, here's goes.

1984 turin motorshow.

Ford RS200

bingo!
next clue would've been "ian cullum".

tell me, was it the "1984 turin motorshow" that gave it away or did you recognise the pic?

bingo!

I recognized the pic once you said turin motorshow. I also didn't realize that it was the back of the car at a funny angle until a minute ago when I guessed.

Alright, try this:

507

nope

You guys seem to be stumped!

Monkey's guess was close but not right.

BMW 503.

what?
if it turns out to be a 503 then i'm gonna go and sob in a corner..... don't they have more or less the same body except the 507 is on a shorter wheelbase?
grrr.....
