Hi, lots of us are real petrolheads just like mebiggrin I'm always looking for something special like some cars where only a few are made off, and ofcorse the rare fast cars but under the max limit of 1000 cars! also specs may be included and ofcorse if you have the buildnumbersbiggrin
here some example the Bertone Dodge Zeder from 1953 only one 1 is made;

And ofcorse my carbiggrin European left hand drive S54 engine: 281 built from 02/2001 through 05/2002 so only 281 LHD where made from the S54 Z3 M coupe...its now my ex since I now have a even rarer car only one ever made the Hartge Z3 (Z47) coupe 5.0 V8 6-speed



My beloved Hartge (real one so also chassisnumber Hartge)




But also the TVR V8S I've had, specialy in LHD(mine) they only made 54 I believe;

Aston Martin DB2/4 by Bertone 1954 only 8 cars, two became drophead coupes, one or two were fixed-head coupes and four (or five were spiders the story says...

Alfa Romeo Bat Cars by Bertone, don't know how much are made? a few...

Aston Martin DB4GT Bertone Jet (1961)only 1?

The last one(for nowbiggrin) the road! Dauer Porsche 962 only a few 6? very very nice;

there are lots of nice rare(les then 1000) cars bring them on.

ad to say the Dauer roadcar was much faster back in 1994 then a Ultima is todaybiggrin great stuf;

Qvale(De Tomaso) mangusta, only 340 orso where made! stil some for sale at "bargain" prices for such rare car with a big V8 and standard 320hp( later MG uses the rest, see next picture) also the mangusta could be driven as coupe, or targa or roadster! with a nice trick






MG XPower SV-R (Underneath the carbon bodywork, chassis is developed from that of Qvale Mangusta )


Recaro seats are excellent, and four-belt lockable inertia belts a great idea

What's the deal with the Lancia Hyena? Is it a Zagato design because it bears a striking resemblance to a Zagato model (concept?) with Audi A3 mechanicals (engine, interior fittings). The car was green in colour - I read it in an old issue of Autocar some years ago.

Yep, it's a Zagato design over Lancia Delta integrale mechanicals. Nor sure which integrale, though.

When I spoke to the guys who make those hyena's(long time ago) they say and I saw it too! they used the latest EVO cars for ityikes so thats why they also sell a lot of used parts that came of the EVO delta's... and I bought such lovely EVO 2? bonnet, I also believed they said they wanted 75 cars to be build, but I guess tehy never maked them all..so between 30 or 40 could be right..

I owned 1 of 2 imported into the UK in the mid 1960's. Does anyone know what model it is & where its from.
Note the Split rear screen which had a 'D' Type Jag Fin.




Edited by madrod on Thursday 5th October 12:59




It's right hand drive, its imported, and it's small so it must have come from Japan.
It looks like one of those Honda 800 sports.

Don't know what that car is? it has the grilles almost of the BMW Z8 nice car though...but I see not a Honda sports 800 in it...or its heavely modified?
