[Car Freak]

I guess if you'd played Forza 2 this car should be really easy to guess...

[Car Freak]

Good God... Looks like somebody Porsche-rized a Mini. Or is it the other way round?

[KoenigseggBG]

I think it`s Speedtouch`s turn...;)

[BobbyV]

I think it`s Speedtouch`s turn...;)

It was, last night.;)

The hint: It's a kit car, the production had started in '59 till '73, around 400 were made. Company was named after its home town.

He guessed the Lambo and posted his pic 6 minutes after you posted your pic. ;)

:huh:Mate, please pay attention. He guessed my Lambo correctly, then he posted his pic with Renault concept, then I guessed it right and eventually I posted the current piccy.

[KoenigseggBG]

Oh, sorry. My bad...:)

[Speedtouch]

Indeed it was the Renault. Current: Ginetta or Marcos of some kind?

...but yeah, gettin' closer. This company is much much less successful than these two. This car was it's highlight actually :nuts:

[BobbyV]

hmm....it seems hideous cars are not very attractive for guessing :confused:

ok..I'll give u another hint. The company was few miles north of Manchester, I believe it ceased to exist and today there is only the same-called owners club....

:bump:

 

Looks like you might need to tell us what car is it Bobby. :)

[t.]

I think it's a Leyland (British Leyland Motor Company) but I can't tell you which one and I can't be arsed to trawl Google.

Ok, I take it back.

It looks like a MG, which was bought by Leyland, but I can't find anything that looks exactly like the car in the pic. The front might look right but the back is all wrong. :confused:

[BobbyV]

It was rather innovative car for its time, the second glass-fibre monocoque car ever to enter the production (first was '57 Lotus Elite)...and no, Leyland is too far of Manchester, this town is about 10-15 miles from the center.

I won't tell u which car it is till tomorrow evening ;)

[hpluls]
