New 'Retro Cars'

[Pistonho]

Wouldn't it be great if car manufacturers would remake some of their iconic cars again. Exact SHAPE but with modern electronics/safety upgrades etc.

From the 80's
VW - Mk1 Golf GTi
Peugeot - 205 GTi
Lancia - Intergrale
Audi - Quattro

Lovely idea but they could never pass modern passenger impact laws, for example.

"Safety" is why most modern cars are amorphous blobs!

Buy the best original that you can, look after it and drive it every day
