The white / clear side indicator is fooling me into thinking it is modern, the chrome on the sill line 80's - Rover SD1 again ?

Looks like an aftermarket Ford repeater to me, like a Fiesta.
Is the grey car a Wartberg or Moscvitch ? (sorry for the bad spelling)

Was a bit of a curve-ball the repeater should be yellow.

....and the white one an earlier version of last weeks Kadett. The SA guy that owned it told me that back home on the S2 they moved the rad forward 6"and replaced the 1200 with the..........1.9 Manta SR. What a sleeper.

I initially thought the Sierra Cosworth was a Granada, the bottom door profile , but the indicator fooled me. I need to get a life.... 
No idea on yours Keith, but hopefully the full image looks as good as the clip implies.

I initially thought some sort of Clio Cup thing with zero regulations but you appear to have us stumped. Even Lauren hasn't had a go - still time tho'

Beats the hell out of me. At first glance I just thought "Bugatti Super Sport", but I can't imagine Old Man Ettore putting his name to chicken wire mesh grilles...
I never said I was any good at identifying modern cars did I?

Well Tony it is French, and my money was on you Lauren.
Close, and I know what you mean about the mesh.
Any good Tim?

Is that an Abbot self propelled gun ?
And the second one the Sunbeam Talbot, one of which was successfully used as a rally car by Mrs Moss I think.

Struggling there mate.
Chrome trim on the V8 could be an attempt at a Barracuda?
Is one an old Merc with U.S marker lights, and one looks like a Fiat Uno, but that is not a proper rear hatch if it is a Mk1 Turbo ie.

All I can tell is that it is LHD (bulkhead is on the right of the image). Perhaps the shark motif (overdone a bit IMO) refers to the Corvette Mako Shark? Bit tenuous but otherwise completely stumped.Kegsti66 wrote:Chrome trim on the V8 could be an attempt at a Barracuda?
I did get the Merc though

Datsun Laurel ?
Uno was a Mk2 so that spoiler may be correct. Mk1 was an all moulded in plastic tailgate, as opposed to a steel with added spoiler.
