Clever boy.
It's one of my pics from waaaay back so I had to dig a little bit to id it, especially as there were so many Eagle variations. Oneball was getting warm with the Beetle connection.

Your turn.....

A hideous plastic clunker with panel gaps you can put your hand through and a clattering, wheezy, gutless pig iron boat anchor in the back. I wonder why they didn’t sell millions of them.

This should be easy.. it appeared on MSN a few days ago.. i have been throwing up since.. It takes the biscuit as both p155 poor and nothing like the car it apes...... if it had a name it would the the WTF v1(final)..... i can only assume it was designed by a lunatic or an abstract artist..

72331

I would imagine seeing the back of it would be a relief.. but nope.. even that is sickeningly terrible.

points for what piece of cark is under the piece of cark .....

Ouch that is wrong in just so many ways.

In the 70s the kit car scene was quite big and there were loads of truly shocking things around, fortunately people realised they were sh1t so sales were low and survivors even less so.

I can't find anything on it thus far, but given the amount of effort that must have gone into its creation I can only imagine it's the product of a speed freak of the pharmaceutical kind.

Is it MR2 based?

Was it from that TV show where the Indian guy who had a chop shop was all creative and the fat bald guy would argue with him the whole way?

In an effort to restore some equilibrium before my eyes beg for mercy, I give you the LP500.... well I would if it hadn't been driven into a concrete block at 30mph just up the A5....

The early ones were f*ck ugly, the later ones were better, a bit like males of the species. As the saying goes; men age like wine, women age like milk.

Life is returning to normal as I disagree, in my mind the early Countach was a design classic, super clean lines, elegant proportions totally unique and of its time. It might have been flawed as a drivers car but from an aesthetic point fantastic. It is one of those cars I could just have as a piece of 3D artwork and never drive and still be very happy
