It has to be the NSU Ro80. It was an exquisite car by all accounts, but it failed so badly, it singlehandedly drove NSU to the wall.

Both are FWD uninspiring sh*tboxes. yeah the're good if you're after fuel economy, but you only like the idea of the 2.0tdi, because that's the exception at your place, and not the rule, like in mine. Short torque curve, uninspiring feel and noise, and in these modern guises, the upkeep of any TD is a lottery - they…

Look. I know it is somehow tingling to feel rebellious about not getting something you think you would find at least mildly interesting. I know, as I am of the species Homo Sapiens Sapiens myself, and from time to time, when i feel deprived, i get the same fizzing sensation not in, but around my balls, as the next…

If i am not mistaken all those project use off-the-shelf engines - Honda in the Ariel, Audi in the KTM, for example. Whereas with piston variants there are a multitude of readily available performance engines for them to get relatively cheap, with the rotary they most likely would have to build their own, or buy from…

In other news, some markets are going to get the Mini Countryman called BMW 1.5-series. "Our customers in this compact segment don't care which wheels are powered, and the BMW version will only be available with AWD as standard anyway, so there will not be any watering-down of our lineup" said the excited chairman.

It's really rare we disagree, but it didn't start now: even in the E21, the 316 had the same 1.8 M10 engine as the 318i, but with a carb, and thus less power. BMW does this playing with numbers for 30 years now, and i'm not even sure the E21 was the first.

Oh-my-god, that movie. Don't even remember the title, but have that lambo right before my eyes right now. Kudos!

That's a pretty easy QOTD

I, for one would be very happy with an interior made from tinfoil and lego - would mean the weight went where it counts, and not where i don't need it, in a light sports car.

If you consider Group B to be a family, and why wouldn't you, then let me give you the family member absent from most all family photos. Of course with hydropneumatic suspension. Only three starts though, before Group B got banned. Ladies ang gentlemen: the Citroen BX 4TC Evo

I seem to recall, that the topgeartoptip on these was: Yes, you can buy an italian supercar for used mondeo money, but for the love of god, please don't" So...maybe that ain't such a bright idea, if even Clarckson says no.

Well i'm not.

Hot Holly Sh*t! I want this so bad, i can even imagine there is a car called Fellatio - which there might not be, as what you mention is called Iso Rivolta Fidia.

WAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA.........

So.... in 2012 there will be a head-on clash between small RWD sportcoupes made by alfa and toyobaru. That really must signal the end of the world - we're going to drown in jizz%!;?!

....so what happens when they inevitably see a fine female on the sidewalk, and start wandering off? Does it come with a wolf-whistle horn?

At first i thought no. Then i thought more no. Then i thought, oh what the heck, i want to die with a grin on my face!

If the world was a simpler place, this should end up just like yesterdays' faux Se7en. But because that replica is considered original, while this isn't considered at all, it all comes to this: if a fake Rolex is $1.50, why is a fake lambo $40.000???

Well, this kind of dough is kinda steep for something that is only ever going to be good for a couple of weekends a year, while i will have to tax it, service it and garage it all 360 other days, and the other costs of ownership might include losing your battle to keep the spouse happy.....

The price is nice... for a minted collector. For me, as a driver, i would rather spend less on some viggen with cherry already popped - more player, less voyeur. I voted NP, but it is, for us jalops of this world, CP.
