Most obscure top ten...

[biggbn]

It's easy to put together a top ten of stereotypical Ferraris, Lamborghins etc, but what's your 'obscure' top ten? Please note, this can contain mainstream manufacturers just not the usual suspects..

For me...

Tucker 48
Tatra T87
Tatra T603
Jensen CV8
Maserati 5000gt
Facel Vega HK500
Ferrari 166 Berlinetta
Cord 812 Phaeton
Cadillac v16 Hartmann Cabriolet
Figoni et Falaschi Delahaye 165

[1690cc]

In my obscure top 10 would definitely be some early turbo oddballs from Renault.

Fuego Turbo for certain
Perhaps an 18 Turbo



Add in a Suburu SVX



Plus a 127 Sport but must be the Orange one



Can't miss of the 6 wheeler I was fascinated by in 1977

A particularly fine choice, if I may say so.

See also, Lancia Gamma.......

[General Price]

Lamborghini Espada,LM002 and Alfa SZ.

That will do for a start.

Another fine example, although you need some Cojones to own one in France, let alone UK. I believe they were built in RHD although I'd be surprised if more than a dozen RHD cars were sold.

Great suggestion, so oddball. Only seen one once and it was in period outside a pub in Leadenhall Market.
Deserves a pic

An obscure top ten given the requisite sized garage:-

Gordon Keeble GK1

Can't help thinking an Isuzu Piazza would fit in well with your selection too!
