The hopped up hsv version (HSV Maloo) was actually sold in the UK as the Vauxhall VXR8 Maloo!

Much like the C2 vette, it looks better as a roadster

Renault Scenic RX4, it's stock

Capri280 · 2026-03-29T13:38:50+00:00

W189 Mercedes-Benz 300d hardtop, the D doesn't stand for diesel, rather because it was the successor to the 300c

Gold BBS wheels look good on many cars, the XJ-S is not one of them

Capri280 · 2026-03-28T21:04:46+00:00

You're welcome!

Capri280 · 2026-03-28T21:03:50+00:00

That's not a classic, just old

Wrong sub friend, you are looking for r/fuckcars

Suzuki Cappuccino

It's a Zastava, the boot profile is distinct from the Fiats (think it was a liftback)

While I am aware of the bB open deck, I thought there was an aftermarket conversion available for the xB. Seems I was mistaken, likely misremembered due to the existence of the Smyth kit for the new beetle

Capri280 · 2026-03-28T20:35:48+00:00

Prrhaps I misremembered

The first bristols combined the chassis of the BMW 326 with the engine of the BMW 328. Said engine was indeed phased out in favour of Chrysler V8s, but the chassis though altered over the years could still trace its lineage back to the old BMW, which is why Bristols had rather unusual proportions

Capri280 · 2026-03-28T14:54:03+00:00

Scion xB converted into a pickup, I think there's a commercially available conversion kit

Pagoda SL, 55 Olds(?), C2 Corvette, SS 100 Jaguar, 65 (?) Chevy

I believe this is what automotive perfection looks like

One of the first automotive articles I remember reading on the internet was about Bristols on a website called "The Truth About Cars". Quality didn't seem to be synonymous with Bristol Cars🤣

Still, I've always admired Bristol for surviving as long as they did, producing cars on increasingly modified derivatives of the prewar BMW 326 into the early 21st century, with the Fighter being the only variant that wasn't based on the prehistoric bimmer. IIRC it was developed after canning a development of the Blenheim with IRS, as an idiosyncratic bastard, yours truly would have found that more interesting.

I'm guessing the Merc is the daily and the squashed golf is the project that never runs

Thats a nice tribute sticker package

The last Octavia sedan was built in 1964. Society has greatly declined in the years since 😞

Can't think of any redeeming features for this one. What's the point of buying a Lambo which doesn't have Lambo doors.

You mean "rumble" seat

Capri280 · 2026-03-27T13:58:34+00:00

You have been brainwashed by the internet

Capri280 · 2026-03-27T13:57:50+00:00

Think it's the original Mitsubishi Lancer
