Looks like Porsche Irish Green.

I'd say not a Ford colour.

I guess so, although not a bad combo, maybe I can find what the original color was,

ah, via the RDW it says Blue, also interesting, never seen a blue one in NL

80 Quattro. Rare beast. Was a dream car for me years ago. Still have thoughts about a retro build on one of these (and an E30 Touring).

That looks like a pre-facelift car with the vertical grill and lights, in which case the quattro would have been the 5 cylinder and should have the bigger headlights and indicators in the bumper. The later car with the indicators in the wing would have had the slightly sloped grill and lights like this

Looks like it has the 80 Sport front end fitted to it (and a nicer/cleaner look to my eyes).

[928 GTS]

I'd say Zagato Elaborazione. Around 22 made.

Totally agree - much neater than the rather busy quattro treatment.

Ah yes. Phone screen. Just zoomed in to see their trademark roof.

I was going to guess at Strosek...?

Super rare Zagato - 1 of 10 (or a replica).

One sold here for €218k. I thought they were rebodied in aluminum but nothing about that in the blurb

Garden centre, Saturday...

In the late 70s I used to see a white DB6 with chrome wires just like that every day parked at the roadside in Venner Road Sydenham on my commute.

that's a rare spot - and, IMO, rather cool

Which one? Two very opposite ends of the technology spectrum. Both pretty cool, I suppose.
