[CJdK112]

an old FSO.

You got that right.

 

[JER_CREST]

I try. however do not know the exact model.

 

[GranTurismo916]

FSO 223 Warszawa?

 

[CJdK112]

FSO 223 Warszawa?

Nope.

 

[Tyger]

I think it's this FSO Syrena but feel free to give the round to Jer Crest, I had no idea, then was curious and checked out some FSOs

 

[JER_CREST]

I bow to you Intellect Tyger for finding the un-blurred pic. If you want the go I am terrible at editing pics.

 

[CJdK112]

I think I'll leave it up to you two to fight over

 

[Tyger]

I'll come in with the clues quite soon with this one as it's pretty obscure (just found it purely by accident). But not straight away as someone might happen to know it!

 

[RDF97]

Some crappy AMC?

 

[MarinaDiamandis]

Gilbern Invader

 

[Tyger]

Nopes. Kit car of sorts though the reference to it I saw suggests up to 20 were built complete, and describes it as a kit but has no info on how many kits were sold, just complete models. From a country not renowned for manufacturing cars.

 

[RocZX]

Any more clues?

 

[Tyger]

Mini-based and manufactured in the 1960s

 

[6ranTur15m05]

GTM? Midas?

 

[RocZX]

Ferris de joux Mini GT

 

[Tyger]

Ferris de joux Mini GT

Bingo! Neat looking car too.

 

[RocZX]

 

[Conbon14]

I take it thats a kei car?

 

[RocZX]

I take it thats a kei car?

Yes and No
It's in the same class as a kei car but it doesn't follow the regulations of being a kei car.

 

[Mark II Blit]

Hafei Lobo?

 

[Tyger]

Mark's right

Odd looking car but at least it's a bit different, which perhaps should be applauded. I kinda like the repetition of the angles/triangles in the design.

 

[RocZX]

He is correct.

The odd look comes from it being designed by Pininfarina.

 

[Mark II Blit]

 

[nealcropper]

Is that a Micra Cabriolet?

 

[Mark II Blit]

Correct! Curious little cars when you're used to seeing them only as hatchbacks.

 

[6ranTur15m05]

Any post coming?

 

[Tyger]

Correct guesser has 24 hours (or was it changed to 12? Beeble?) to post their pic.

That time has passed so feel free to post a new one

Please do, this thread often goes quiet when people are reluctant to post pics, including those who previously guessed correctly
