Courtesy of Reddit, the Mitsouka Roadster. Based on the MX5, They did a Morgan style car based on am MX5 too IIRC

Anyone mentioned the Honda Discovery Crossroad yet?

[Blown2CV]

amusing that Honda would want to put their badge on a LR. Like opposite ends of the reliability and build quality scale there.

Still the only Honda road car with a V8 engine.

Went to the garage last week, and the sight of an unknown car was driving me crazy. I spent hours navigating websites and forums looking for this supercar.

Nope, turns out it's a car built in a shed for fairly affordable money. I give you the Contera MD1

Thanks for that. I saw it at the Autosport show one year and couldn't remember what it was called. It uses a Lexus V8

Nissan Silvia S10


A bit 70s sci fi, a bit 70s American.

1939 Volkswagen Steyr - I used to see this driving around Hastings in the mid to late 2000s, never knew how interesting it was until I discovered this old photo and done some Googling:

It certainly gets extra cool points for putting the driver in the middle

Was it just me who never knew there was a Lexus IS convertible?

[P5BNij]

An Italian / yank hybrid I wasn't previously aware of - the Chevy V8 powered, Frua bodied Momo Mirage....











To my eyes it has echoes of the Pininfarina designed Fiat 130 Coupe, the Monteverdi 375 and the Lamborghini Islero, as well as Frua's own interpretation of the Maserati Quattroporte II built for the Shah of Iran.

Not very common at all - I saw one at a camp site I was at a few weeks ago.

I was crawling around the M25 yesterday (some numpties crashed because...rain) and was stuck behind one of these:

That is incredible, nearly 50 grand and you get this interior from 2002.


Plus a crap range, why would you get this?
You can get a long range Tesla Model 3 for only a grand more. The standard model 3 is £40k.
Even better the MG ZS ev, a much nicer looking Chinese EV, £26k. Makes no sense to get a BYD to me.
