Did Proton just buy the old production line from Mitsubishi?

It does seem that way, the Pert goes right up to the Evo 8 I think.

Someone else went to Race Retro at the weekend then wink

Anyone remember the Wira, which was based on an earlier evolution of the Lancer?

Hard to believe but I didn't hehe it cropped up in conversation over the weekend. I remember seeing an Evo 5 based one in the BRC around 97-98.

This is a new Lamborghini Centenario. I'd never heard of it until this afternoon.

Not sure if that looks
A) amazing
B) like it has run over someone's tent.

I think it looks amazing.....pretty ridiculous looking which is what a Lamborghini should look like, right?

Considering it's just a modified Aventador....look at the price of them.

You mean like the ones they've already built?!


I knew of them, I meant actual production cars. But, with the downfall of the Commodore and Falcon I can't see anything like that happening.

I'm sure I remember reading about that in Would Sports Cars magazine about 20/ 25years ago? IIRC it was new from the factory when it had a misshap. Theowner got some head technician from Porsche who was in some way involved with the 959 program, to oversee the rebuild/ convertiblisation.
Yes, from memory it was rolled by the owner within a month of getting it and the factory rebuilt it

There is so much going on (most of it wrong) that it is hard to know where to begin. That said, the rear door handles must be one of the most random placements I have ever seen.

They say it looks better in the metal. The rear door handles also look a bit high up for kids to reach.
