Mitsubishi Galant - tuned by AMG





https://www.motor1.com/news/225473/rare-amg-mitsub...

Mitsubishi Galant VR4 AMG

AMG also produced this beauty, the Mitsubishi Debonair V 3000 Royal AMG





Checkout the velourtastic upholstery. There's a 15,000v static shock waiting right there...



The Galant was a proper tuned job with a breathed upon engine but I think the Debonair was just pimped up family saloon with the stock engine.

I've never seen a 5 series hearse before

If we are into coach built hearses, here are some peculiarities I've come across over the years...

Tesla Model S anyone?


The last iteration of the E-class...


Place this in the grave too?


Same coachbuilder as your 5 series?


Economy class?


And lastly, for the Italian funeral, a Fiat 130 and an Argenta:

Either of these 2 would be my choice for when I pop off but I'd like the VW painted in bright hippy colours.

Are they not classed as quads? If so then yes car terms they are "death traps" but in quad terms the are safer. I'd rather my teenager be in one of these than on a moped.

Bleedin' hell. Did the designer forget his French curves that day?

I had categorically never heard of a C5 Carlsson. Great shout.

Weird rear brakes, assuming covers rather than drums or bigger discs than the front...

It's discs with a shield behind it. Discs look similar size to fronts though.

There are more than 12, but it’s a pretty rare car. Country Tourer is the full name, I think

I remember when that launched back in 2016! I don't think I've ever seen one on the road since
