thought my car deserves a mention here- by no means desirable as all the other exotic cars in this thread (no point posting a picture, as its no looker!)
Rover 420 turbo- aparently only 500 were made with the turbo engine. probably only half of those are still on the road
Post a picture, also no lookers are welcome, and there are always people who like those, that's why they get sold at the time they came out.Rover 420 turbo- aparently only 500 were made with the turbo engine. probably only half of those are still on the road

This thread is also very handy when your looking for something special in futere car shopping, that's why I started it sadly most are a bit expensive

Remember this? i can't but it looks spectacular this wide body Citroen Visa Lotus , yes it uses the Lotus esprit 2174cc L engine and a garrett Turbo to get 210 hp for this 1020kg rally car, its a one off marriage between Lotus and Citroen, they also made the Talbot Lotus, French and the English kiss

Concept cars don't count do they?
If they are roadworthy and drive-able its oke (just add concept to it), best are ofcorse the cars that are road-legal, this long list wakes you up of lovely cars you can buy or are maybe hidden in some garage I love special cars, some are forgotten so its nice to see them again.GTRene

indeed sadly some pictures are gone but we can replace those who are missing more to come.
Also from Ginetta the have also some nice cars...
2005 Hartge H1 5.0
only a few were build, at least 3 original Hartge and maybe a few still called BMW, lovely litle monster with their 5.0 V8 S62
The HARTGE H1 5.0 was revealed and reveled at the Essen (Germany) Motorshow in December 2004.
Once again the HARTGE engineers created something special by transplanting a BMW 5.0L V8 into the newly released 1 series. And this isn"t your normal BMW V8, as it features modified cylinder heads, revised camshaft, and its own engine software mapping; resulting in an output of 450 hp and 376 lb-ft of torque.
To translate this phenomenal power to the ground in the 1 Series, a special drive shaft and 6 speed manual transaxle are installed, along with a new rear sub-frame. With a curb weight of just 1,445 kg (~3200 lbs.), rendering a weight to power ratio of 3.23 kg/hp (7 lb/hp), the H1 catapults from 0-100 km/hr (0-62.5 mph) in just 4,6 sec. The amazing thrust continues to an ultimate top speed of 300 km/h (188 mph).

this is what they say about the original Ginetta G12
Despite what the books say, less than 30 of these cars were produced in 1966-68. Thereafter, one or two body/chassis units were produced for enthusiastic customers.
so not that many of this lovely car, later on DARE also sell those with more modern stuf.

and here a Ginetta G4 also not many are made

Ford GT40 one of the most beautiful designs that stil today is very nice see also the replica's (mostly mk1 and mk2) around the world, many are made much much more then the original car did....around 100 I believe.
there is the mk1 mk2 mk3 and mk4, I try to find some picture's....of many are replica pictures on the web so I hope to find also some originals.
the best in my eyes the mk1 design, sporty elegant...
mk2...
replica?
mk3...
mk4...
