This is the place to share those weird and wonderful cars that you like but are perhaps an odd choice for one reason or another.

I'll start with this little gem. I've wanted one for as long as I can remember really.

 

Lancia Thema 8.32

 

An Italian saloon with an electric rear wing and a ferrari cross plane crank V8 engine. Nothing gives this thing away. I love the fact it's possibly one of the ultimate Q cars ever made. Not that fast by todays standards but just oozes cool.

It's slightly funny looking, no arguments there, but it's Italian so it should be something different. Practical, roomy, easy to fix: If I needed something big and disposable I'd buy one in an instant.

I remember going in the front of one that was a local taxi. My boss at the time also got in the front..... 3 across just for kicks. We were both very drunk at the time. :lol::lol:

They are proper cool.

 

Unfortunatly most of my Volga experiences have been in more modern and far less desirable machinery.

 

 

I do have a soft spot for Lada Nivas though.

They really do go anywhere and I like that in a car!

 

 

I have seen Nivas exactly like the one below used in the Siberian oilfields. Awesome!

Proton Satria GTI

 

Thats the one mate - the insurance on them was mental! Group 16 or 17 I think.

 

Even the 1.6 boggo effort in the Satria was about group 13 back in the day

Next up for me.....

 

I actually looked at one of these earlier this year.

 

 

Sunbeam Stilleto. 55bhp of goodness. I like the Imp but I prefer this incarnation.

 

 

Pics nicked of an imp site that I found while browsing...
