Is the correct answer.

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-WS1KAkBqvD4/UJVzzF46MQI/AAAAAAAACM4/l3P2aWAIHk8/s640/Silvf34.jpg)

For Japanese S13s:

R = 3-door liftback with pop-up lights (180SX)
(no R) = 2-door coupe with fixed front lights (Silvia)

P = Post Jan \'91 car with SR20 engine (n/a or turbo)
(no P) = earlier car with CA18 engine (n/a or turbo)

The EU 200SX was an RS13, a 3-door with popups and the CA18 engine, as featured in red earlier in this thread.  Although europe got the facelifted body style, they never got the SR20 in the S13 (I suspect this was due to Nissan Europe not wanting to push insurance premiums higher, as skyrocketing premiums were a hot topic at that time).

The car is a Nissan Silvia, hence no \'R\' in the chassis code.  This particular one was a PS13 with the SR20DE, but I don\'t recall if the indicator lights betray that or not.

For Brett - this was the n/a Silvia I had when I lived in Japan, rather than the turbo 180 I imported after I returned to the UK.

Title: Name The Car
Post by: samoht on November 21, 2012, 07:44:10 PM
Yup, Brett wins, Xedos 6.

From Wikipedia:

Mazda Xedos was a range of executive cars (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_car) launched by Japanese (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan) manufacturer Mazda (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda) in 1992.[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_Xedos#cite_note-0][1][/URL]
 The original model was the Mazda Xedos 6, which was similar in size and in engine to the BMW 3 Series (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_3_Series).

By 1994, there was a larger model called the Mazda Xedos 9, which was of a similar size to the BMW 5 Series (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_5_Series).

Featured clip is from the 93-94 BTCC version:

Ok, I think I may have gone a bit too obscure with that one!  That was a concept at the 1966 Tokyo motor show, the Daihatsu Sport.  It was designed by Vignale (hence the Italian connection) in 1963 as a fastback; Daihatsu then built a notchback version themselves for the \'66 show.

Close, looks like you have the Zagato bit worked out, what with their trademark double bubble roof but it\'s a bit smaller than an Aston and if you want a big clue it\'s got more in common with a Maserati

Quite correct well done. Well, should be OSCA 1600GT Zagato as there were different coachbuilders for them but as I\'m all heart it\'s close enough. It couldn\'t be called a Maserati even though it was made by the Maserati brothers as they sold the rights to build cars under their name in 1937 and started up the OSCA company to build cars, simples eh:wave
A lot of people think they were part of Fiat but in fact it was the other way around. Fiat used the Osca engine design in their cars and in return made engines under licence and gave them back to OSCA.
You learn something new everyday huh.

If I get another chance I\'ll do a slightly more modern car for you, promise :wiggle

mmm that\'s one I looked at too but it\'s the funny sticky out wrap around bumper that’s got me confused, cars just aren’t made like that these days............... are they? And yet the colour is distinctly Lotus or Mclaren.

It looks a bit like the Ferrari 512bb but it isn\'t.

Well you could read the Bee from the picture. So that made it a Super Bee. The Light style makes it pre-1990s.
 
The Earlier ones featured lots of Chrome and in the pic it has a plastic surround, so a later model classic Dodge Challenger Super Bee.

Yeah, probably a similar size and weight to a Cosmo so would have worked well with a 20b turbo too.  That said, the Jag V12 wasn\'t too shabby - although the XK13 was still its finest hour.

Title: Clues: A who plus a what and even a why?
Post by: jinx on December 17, 2012, 01:13:55 AM
The who + the what will take you to the answer.

Who:
A Frenchman with an Austrian father who made it big in America. Designer of landmark cars including the Hillman Minx (sic) and several from South Bend, Indiana where he had strong ties. There\'s even an Italian connection too - in the \'forward\' name of one of his most famous designs for those folks.

What:
Opel is not right but I see where you were coming from. The German connection is under the skin...it is the clothes that are French which may be why it has indicators.  (Easy from there?)

Type his surname and the car marque - Google will show you a picture.
You could also find him by way of the Pennsylvania Railroad, smoking a Lucky Strike, sipping a coke dispensed from the Electrolux fridge aboard Air Force One...when you know \'who\' you\'ll understand why!

I\'m sorry chaps - I really thought you\'d get this quickly. It\'s still in production (I think).  After going into liquidation in the mid thirties, the name was revived in 1946 but died again two years and 17 cars later, reappearing in the early 2000\'s attached to this front engined coupe with a V8 engine and claimed top speed potential of +200mph.

I\'m beginning to feel like that small boy in the Norwich Union advert...\'I\'m not helping much am I\'   :o

I\'m so glad that nobody else knows and I\'m not the only one whose definition of \'easy\' is more personal than general.  :Laugh

It looks oddly familiar and there can\'t be that many double bubble back window treatments out there. Obviously modern, for no really good reason other than to break the silence, I\'ll hazard a guess it is something I can\'t name from TVR.

A long shot - the lights look wrong but the centre span between the bubbles looks right and since the company\'s had more lives than the average cat - the parts bin probably changes on a weekly basis!  Maybe one of the second (3rd or 4th!) wave prototypes they showed at Goodwood a few years back?

Because I (like you?) had a model of one as a kid!  They fetch fantastic money in the US but are not well known here...except possibly by boys who resist growing up!

I think the fact that everything I once dreamed of owning is now the preserve of city boys or lottery winners, has changed the old car scene for the worse.  Time was when a knackered old race car was just a knackered old race car not an instant investment opportunity.  Of course back then, if you bought one it would still have been knackered...but it would have been your knackered old race car! :evillaugh

And now for something completely different, although like the Cheetah it is a child of the sixties... Another foreigner, another forgotten make swallowed by another name...one that is everywhere you look these days.

I wondered if it was one of those swivelly headlight Citroen\'s, but if it\'s Italian - that\'s not it.
 
It\'s not a Topolini is it ? (not sure how that\'s spelt)

ok some clues - it\'s not a British car, nor Italian.
 
I don\'t want to give too much away - but it\'s quite old - 50\'s is probably right. Sad to see such an important milestone car in such a state...
 
ok - 50"s is just too early - it was 1960 :)

Well done Ken D - only right in the circumstances - one Clipper for another!  

I have a collection of ads from the fifties which invest small cars with additional scale.  There\'s a Morris Minor advert on my office wall in which the parents clearly risk losing their two kids due to the cavernous interior but the Clipper\'s ad is just mental.  Unlike other Allards this thing was tiny. Think about the size of a standard number plate then contrast it with the scale of the driver shown in the ad. LOL!

Post by: KenD on March 19, 2013, 01:36:41 PM
Thanks jinx.  
Yes I recall my Dad collected a lot of 50\'s advertising stuff and I know exactly what you mean.  Today of course we have grown use to capacious interiors even on what are relatively small cars - there again cars have grown somewhat in size - Fiat 500 is a case in point!

Here\'s the next one to think about:

That\'ll do nicely - it is the Wartburg 353 from former East Germany. A production run of over 1 million cars in a 22 year period.  And surprisingly good performance for a 3 cylinder 55 bhp engine.

Well GSB got us to Wartburg but you finished the job, so over to you re japi.

Valid file extensions are doc gif jpe jpeg jpg pdf png txt zip

Can you try as a jpeg?  Something like Paint will allow you to save a bmp as a jpeg.

Cheers

Post by: Casey on March 20, 2013, 07:30:34 AM
bmp images generally have large file sizes as they are not "compressed", so the forum software won\'t allow them (they take up too much storage). Can you convert to the common jpg format? You could try this free online convertor if you are not sure how to do it;

Austin Maxi ?

Near enough with your first guess...it\'s the Morris 1800.
(can\'t imagine driving a car of that size/weight today without power steering - still it was good for building up the arm muscles and at the time I knew no better!)

Well done and back to you!

I was 12 I think when Dad got the 1800 (so 1970)...stayed in the family until the mid 80\'s at which point the rust was doing its job!

Quite possibly, although its not particularly recognisable (unless you happen to know it) from a side view.  The front would give it away :).

Not a Lada or a Renault.

The original version (which you certainly will know) came out in the late 70\'s.  There was also a much sought after version which is probably still regarded as an excellent performance car, even by todays standards.  Another version used to feature a lot on the TV:)

Nice find anyway Ken - a confusing time at Chrysler!  All those slope fronted Airflows, Imperials with and without the split grille and/or different headlight designs allegedly from the same year - then by 39 everything has changed and they are off with their two step front end that is pretty much the defining look of the period.  They seemed to switched the grille design from horizontal to vertical from model to model, year to year...Dammit...a googler\'s nightmare!

First thought we might still be at home with one of those \'racy\' post war, Abbot Hillmans. Once noticed though, that light detailing was far too fancy - suggesting France or America.  A Fiat in a fancy French clothes?  No...I went for the US - wanting it to be a Hudson or maybe a Zephyr - special or otherwise but...

Enough...No more running boards I promise (Only KenD seems to get them!) Here is something I always wanted but never got to own…and now probably never will!

Winner....For lots of reasons (none of them in the least bit scientific) this, rather than a Ford Capri, is the car I always promised myself more than any other.   AFN imported Porsche and BMW - they looted a 956 for its doors and glass then nipped off to Williams and Pritchard for the rest.  The Continental was going to be the next big thing after the successful Sebring and Mille Miglia models but, along with its BMW V8, it got killed off by world events. Almost stillborn - despite the hopeful announcement and massive press coverage it was little more than a proptoype with a scrap of carpet - luvverly.  If I ever win the lottery...

I think this is the last of two (three?) made - I so badly wanted the green one used in all the black and white photo shoots!  It is mercifully owned by someone who drives it rather than watching its value increase in a temperature controlled cocoon. It was a surprise to get so excited when I tripped over it parked casually at the back of the old paddock at Silverstone in 2011 but it was a proper boyhood dream and a genuine \'hen\'s tooth\' so maybe I could be forgiven.  The sun was shining, my anorak was in the car and I don\'t think anybody noticed....till now.

Too easy to be any sort of mystery but following Ken\'s theme...and back on solid ground...here\'s an, admittedly slightly less distinguished, escapee from my family\'s archives.  Undistinguished perhaps but, as the first car with proper doors my brother ever owned, it had a certain novelty value in our house.

Ken: My Dad was offered a blower Bentley for less than £50 just after WW2. He was already \'extending\' his petrol coupons with paraffin, leaving ever larger clouds of blue smoke behind him as each month progressed, so felt the blower would be both too conspicuous and juicy. Every now and again he still closes his study door and...screams.

Well if its what I believe it to be its not bad for a first car (with doors that is!)...a Gilbern Invader MkIII?

£50 just after WW2....well that doesn\'t sound much, but bring that forward to today and its a good sum of money...even so a Bentley would probably have given a healthy return!  My Dad sold the Lagonda in 1970 for a coupe of hundred....but hindsight is a wonderful thing!

When I looked at the ace I noticed a feature line around the side lights. Around the area you\'d fit canards.
 
There doesn\'t appear to be that on this car but the rear arches seem too small and there\'s no bonnet scoop.

Part Number, part number Ken? Sorry, no extra points for you!! :rollin A win with the Peerless (Warwick) GT though, later reborn as something else entirely.  A carefully lit studio shot makes it look quite elegant; a shame that real life is less kind. Mind you, the same could be said about me.

I must stop playing this game, I\'m getting all misty eyed about an age when real men wore overalls and flat caps, rode a Raleigh \'All Steel Bicycle\' to work and had a Woodbine in the corner of their mouth or no further away than behind their ear. Those days when \'holiday\' meant reading the \'Sporting Life\' aboard a sternly upholstered Bedford OB coach en route to Butlins where the week would pass under lead grey skies (colour photos being for the gentry), among dreams of one day owning a Ford Anglia.

Have all the pigeons gone? Someone pass me a whippet, I\'m feeling a mite peckish.

Thinking of overalls I recall my elder brother in the mid 60\'s slowly putting together a Berkeley in our garage.  And I remember going on holidays with family friends in a Bedford Dormobile Mk1.  Not sure there was any Woodbines though:)

Title: Name The Car

That looks like a Reliant Scimitar...the early coupe not the GTE sportshatch?  I don\'t remember them being that comfy in the back but then realised the theme was \'family\' cars not \'family cars\'!

If I\'m right can re japi put up something obscure from the tundra?

Re japi - in case of interest:- the number of small UK car companies were partly a product of:
1. Poor supply of the home market after the war because manufacturer\'s steel quotas (everything was rationed) depended on the volume of their exports.  

2. As a result of \'1\', the arrival of glass fibre materials for bodywork in the 1950\'s led to an explosion of small firms offering replacement clothes for pre-war Austin 7 and Ford 8 chassis - the birth of the UK specials and kit car industry where brands like Rochdale began.  This in turn kick-started post war motorsport which added more names to the list.

3. Lastly, the tax system meant, with a little work bolting sub assemblies together, buyers could dodge punitive \'new car\' tax rates.  Small makers could keep their costs and the price of a new sports car down to push sales up to a viable level - sometimes very low. Several (like Lotus) offered a "buyer assembled" option right into the sixties.

If not interested ignore this explanation and post something none of us have heard of!:Laugh

That\'s the one jinx, well done:Thumbs-up

Sorry, my use of family was perhaps misleading - in this case as you\'ve worked out, I was referring to those cars owned by members of my family as opposed to what one may describe as a "family car":)

Nothing against Finland\'s engineers or workforce but you do wonder how many Boxster customers know their new car was not built in Germany!  Like those BMW owners who discover their new 6 or 7 series was made in Korea on the track next to the Kia something or other!

Could be worse I suppose - Years ago a friend\'s father was insanely proud of his new 420G Jaguar.

Those were days when the appropriately named Lofty England, Jaguar\'s customer relations manager, told buyers complaining about rust or paint defects that they had only bought the engine and gearbox - Jaguar just gave them the rest to take it away in.

Quotebut you do wonder how many Boxster customers know their new car was not  built in Germany!  Like those BMW owners who discover their new 6 or 7  series was made in Korea on the track next to the Kia something or  other!
A good point jinx. Whereas we might expect it with some manufacturers I suspect most owners of German cars would have expected their piece of precision engineering made by the worlds finest engineers to have been produced in Germany.  Even Mercedes allows Mexico not only to produce its range of cars, but also to use locally produced parts - a Mexican Merc...mmm, not sure about that!

Post by: jinx on April 25, 2013, 09:04:34 AM
In the absence of another challenge....
There is a reason they are a rare sight... they were...what\'s the expression? ...Oh yes, bloody awful. :D  

Now I have happy memories of a two tone grey Mk2 and a gloriously vulgar Mk3 Zodiac in bottle green with shiny alloys but not the Mk IV..with it\'s huge long bonnet with spare wheel stowed in there...because they could...and the lumpy running V4 or V6 engines - the 4 so underdeveloped and badly made, in hot climates it could prove difficult to turn off!  

These things lifted an inside wheel on the first rumour of a corner and were known for dramatic handling that had strong men clenching their buttocks. Over the years Ford put anti-roll bars, radial tyres and power steering on the top models in order to try and imbue them with acceptable road manners.  The poor folks in the Zephyrs just got ever lower geared steering to offset the confusing nose-heavy, front-light, driving experience.. which just made them feel even soggier.  The body was a rust trap and there was enough of it to make a substantial pile. The seats were huge too but not any too comfortable unless you were one of those heavily built Essex lads who spent their days in a JCB!  

They were, like all Fords, costed to a tenth of an old penny then built down to a price - and in this case it really showed. (For the incongruously named \'Executive\' variant it cost Ford as much to do a whole interior in leather as Rolls Royce spent on part of one door card.)

A disappointing swan song, the MkIV\'s were the last time Ford in Britain made a car on their own, their replacement was the Anglo-German Granada. Wrong to lay the blame at a single door but one of the MkIV\'s designers went on to father another British great...the Morris Marina.:2Confused

I\'m amazed to hear they made great tow cars; accelerating without any weight on the back was like driving a blunt fronted, woolly speedboat when that big flat bonnet pointed up at the sky!  What were you towing Clive... marshmallows? :Laugh

History - yes
Mystery - no.

Having said in the past to how you much preferred a Zephyr to a Mk II Jaguar (first picture), it is quite surprising to see you went on to an XJ6 (picture 2) for your tow barge. I take it the supply of £10 Zodiacs with expendable back axles had dried up?  

Mind you, as that\'s a Leyland era XJ it was a brave choice - almost randomly fitted with parts from different suppliers on different sides of the car.  I was once at a Jaguar parts counter when the customer in front of me was asked for the build date of his car. Knowing the actual date (not just the year or even month) was the only way they had of working out which of the more than a dozen different types of headlight bowl his car was likely to have been fitted with!

Very glad to see you back Ken, having been concerned that you either were, or were closely related to, the designer of the Mk IV Zephyr and had been left reeling at the vitriolic candour of my unsolicited and unkind recollections. :eek: Clive made it easy because he has mentioned before that no Jaguar he had owned ever showed any evidence of grace, space or pace. I suggested he might have paid more than £20 for one with an MOT but was withered by a single glance and never brought it up again.  

Moving swiftly on...if that\'s ok...I have absolutely no personal connection with the subject of tonight\'s puzzle except to say I\'ve seen a few...but then again...too few to mention.  It is another British bred sportscar no longer with us but, in a reversal of the usual story, this one died with a full order book coupled to a lack of interest from the manufacturer.

I was hoping this, my last for a while at least, would run for a little longer than the previous one but I somehow doubt it will. We need a few more of those obscure Latvian supercars from the late 90\'s, made for the affluent local \'industrialists\', to bring the mystery back. :Giggle

Thanks for the welcome back jinx.  I have been around but just busy with work and (as you saw) I didn\'t look in quite quick enough on Clive\'s last one!  Don\'t worry, I\'m no fan of the Zephyr/Zodiac Mk IV range and I think you described them reasonably accurately, admittedly I suspect, not entirely along the lines of Ford\'s sales pitch at the time:).  I did have a Capri Mk1 at one time but I was young enough to appreciate its appearance as opposed to its somewhat dubious handling qualities - having said that I\'m sure it was a vast improvement of the aforementioned Fords!

Here you go,

First was a Jaguar MKII 3.8 MOD, that I paid the princely sum of £80 at the age of 17 from a Bowater Scot director who took the car with him when he retired , still remember it cost me £75 to insure  

Beautiful condition car, chauffeur driven all its life and at the time worth nothing (then) !, didn\'t  go bad though as I was told it had the E-type engine in it.

Had a bizarre rear suspension set up with a panard rod that for some reason kept ripping itself out of the chassis till I beefed it up,

No idea why it tore itself out as this was a rot free car, maybe, just maybe I cornered a little too fast with it :driving

Couldn\'t find an identical XJ6 Daimler Jag, mine was a 3.6, green sand with a brown vinyl roof and green velor interior, sounds hideous but it was actually a gorgeous looking car, sold it after an offer I couldn\'t refuse :cool.

Hi Ken... Yes Unipower GT - now often referred to as a kit car but sold fully built.  Amazingly they closed the factory doors after the first 75 with a bulging order book and deposits taken.  The original partners having disagreed and split up, the remaining ones decided car production was just a distraction and pulled the plug.  

Photos really don\'t do it justice and as (Mk IV Zephyr\'s aside!) it is easier to design a big car well, the Unipower was all the more impressive.  This picture makes the roof look tall and the tail heavy but seen for real it was a very sleek little thing. Many sprouted enormous wheel arches to accommodate ever-wider rims for racing, which makes those original 10" alloys (Dunlops or Cosmics?) even rarer and just right!

Your ball.

I don\'t know why you don\'t like MkII\'s Clive....OK, apart from the Moss gearbox, heavy steering, indifferent standard brakes and [lest we forget] the rust.  That said, I saw one parked among modern super cars outside a posh foreign hotel and it looked right at home. I would have taken it as my first choice.  By chance I met the owner and he told me my opinion was shared by others because he\'d already turned down more than he paid for it at the auction he was on the way home from!

One Jag I wouldn\'t want again was the series 3 which was a badly put together tin can by comparison, made by an almost dead British Leyland it really should not have sported a Jag badge, they recon that one of the last was inspected as it came off the line and 170 snagging faults were found !!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have it! A fine Intermeccanica co-production with Apollo\'s several, serial, entrepreneurial owners in the US -  but not even Scaglione salvaged that rather uncomfortable rear quarter profile.

Well done Ken, I bet that took some googling on top the lateral thinking! I found it by accident looking for information on racing cars from Bertone a while back. Scaglione did some of the real landmark Alfas - so the Spider guess earlier on was spiritually close - even if it was totally wrong and the car by Pininfarina. :Laugh  

Apollo\'s founders apparently hired Scaglione to improve their original (US) design.  IM made the bodies and shipped them to the US for the mechanicals.  As this was the mid to late sixties you would have thought it would have been easier to buy a Euro crossbreed off the peg.. Bristol, ISO, Monteverdi or even a Facel Vega...there was plenty of choice!  

If things had gone on I was going to muddy the water with a Scottish red herring because Buick supplied the engine and that was started by a Scotsman...albeit in 1903!  :evillaugh

I\'m still a bit behind so do another one Ken...see if you can capture their attention. You might be better going for something with zircon encrusted titanium alloy wheels and 15 inch wide tyres unless it is isn\'t only the two of us who remember the joyful scream of a firm walled cross-ply!  :D

It is indeed Stanguellini 1100TC. I confess to stumbling across it whilst researching something else.  Looks like I\'ll hold off on the MT.4 for a few months to give you time to forget:)

Very kind of you jinx....well I guess I will take the hint (to some extent)! Here is something a little more up to date.  I won\'t vouch for the encrusted alloys or the tyre width though:D

I won\'t speak for jinx Casey but when I was a kid I was always getting Observers books of either cars or aircraft, so I built up, and still do have quite a collection.  Also each year I used to get the big Motor Show guides featuring all the latest models.  On top of that my elder brother was a mechanic initially at BMC and then Ford, so our house was always full of car mags of some description.  Guess it was an interest which I have never grown out of :).

The Rover/BRM gas turbine prototype?  

If I\'m right - yet more evidence of the engineering milestones toppled at Solihull and then forgotten about.  No wonder Audi\'s engineers were gobsmacked when they toured \'the rover\' and saw all the stuff its management never did anything with!

Carl - You\'ll remember the mid engined V8 sports coupe with the unstyled bodywork that Bill Boddy drove and pronounced spectacularly good only for Rover\'s top team to ignore the effect it might have had on sales.  Now there was a lesson learned well in Ingolstadt! LOL

Good man - absolutely on the right track but not the right chassis.  The chassis and body share the same nationality and you recently saw the chassis wearing different clothes, parked next to the bodystyle on a different host....think side lawn FOS :D
Title: Name The Car
Post by: jinx on July 24, 2013, 12:28:55 PM
No interest? It\'s the Supersonic body style from Ghia - a signature design for the firm from 1953. It was first shown on an Alfa Romeo but subsequently translated to other chassis. This is one of the eight Fiat V8\'s to get the rocket ship treatment when Fiat could not shift enough of their standard offering.  Goodwood showed a standard Fiat version next to one of the Jaguar XK120\'s that wore the Ghia body.

Clearly out of synch again - so I\'d suggest Nigel takes the honours as there was indeed a Cobra that got the supersonic treatment as late as 1965.
