It's like the back is the back but the front is also the back.

Mind blown.

(but I quite like it).

It was a homage to their S110R coupe of the 70s - a curious rear-engined car which had some success in rallying.

'Some success' could be considered an understatement, as the following Group B Estelle was one of the most successful rally cars of all time.

Hardly any group wins for the Estelle, don't know why they bothered.

Looks like a cross between an Estelle and an Audi R8

Apparently, it's based on an R8 Mk1.

Swift 4x4 - I didn't know they existed but apparently 1500 other people do. Was there an AWD Mk2 Swift hatch, or were they all badged as Subaru Justys?

The Subaru Traviq! Saw one and thought someone stuck Subaru badges on their zafira.

Total guess. Ignis 4x4 running gear?
Related to the panda 4x4 (if not directly nicked from it)

That does look good.

Those are Bentley Mulsanne headlights on the Skoda too. Just a VW parts-bin raid with some custom bodywork (though the doors are bog standard R8).

Isn't that Skoda R200 just a rendering in an Autocar fashion?

They did make these though





The 180 and 200RS

Did they make it to production or were they just concepts?

The ferat vampir RSR was a one off prototype - it was in some eighties cult Czech movie but I forget its name

Blimey!

The images still look like an Autocar rensering to me that early in the morning though

These are very popular in the Swiss Alps, I think there have been 4x4 versions of most models of Swift but possibly not all offered in the UK.

Looking at the video and with a call back to my earlier comment I'd definitely say that that is an R8 with a different front and rear.
