You are so right. I wonder if there is some sort of marketing reason to decide now to restore the 924 GTP.

... but then they would certainly have caught the miscreant.
Nobody is going to mention the chase in Goodbye Pork Pie?!
Indeed, the Birotor engine was not one of Citroën’s best decisions. And of course they were plagued by the same problems as the NSU: their Wankel engine was built at the factory as the Ro 80's, by the Comotor joint-venture established by both firms. I cannot say for sure, but most likely it is exactly the same engine,…
That is a lovely picture. Suggestive, rather than explicit.
So you consider the Citroën GS had “shoddy engineering”?
I am pretty some of those are not original for the early Series 1s. I have a 1954 Series 1 (86") and it was a sort of off-white colour (not mentioned, interestingly) which I believe is the same the colour of the S1 in the famous Marilyn photograph. I know there was RAF blue and Bronze Green (which, by the way, is very…
You mean rubber-encased batteries? I am pretty sure that kind are being made in the US at least (or used to be, not so long ago, for vintage restorations precisely). I have never researched the subject but I bet there are companies in Europe that make them too. Of course they must not be exactly cheap.
You must mean the prototype.
And Ms Schmitz.
Maybe it was a 208...? That is an extremely rare car – an Italian-market special akin to the E30 320iS.
The 308 GT4 is unloved because most people don’t even know that there were Ferraris styled by others than Pininfarina. Most of those who say a 208/308 GT4 is “ugly” simply don’t have a sense of history, and certainly have never heard of Boano or Touring or Ghia. Granted, some people just don’t like its Gandini-drawn…
Marvel at the fact that you can actually get a modicum of sense out of some freely available machine translation software – between languages that are not even remotely related.
You really have a death wish, don’t you?
I would much prefer to see an (80s) GTO doing the same. I still remember when Ferrari very seriously announced the wheel size approved for snow-chain fitment to that car.
Enzo would be much more upset about the huge quantity of Ferraris gathering dust in garages, trailer queens and so on.
Actually that is mostly for racetracks (unless it involves night driving).
“Series” Land Rovers had folding windscreens. Even some early Defenders (the Defender name appeared in 1991) had proper hinges to lower the windscreen. Wolfs and military-spec Defenders had all folding ‘screens.
I feel confused: are you trying to suggest the E30 two-door is a proper coupé (or coupe)?
