Here's one for all you Rolls Merlin fans... Green Peace should promote this as a eco friendly car...

That looks amazing! Those can't be real machine guns on the sides though? Or is it the exhaust?

The first was converted for Count Gregorio Rossi di Montelera, a close customer of the Porsche company and also major investor and sponsor of the Porsche-Martini racing team which dominated numerous fields of motorsport in the Seventies and Eighties. The brief presented by Rossi was a 917K as close to the racing car as possible, with only minor modifications, such as a silencer and a small amount of road-rash protection for air vents, which made the job ever harder for the Porsche Motorsport Department. The car selected for conversion was chassis 917.030, which was built in January 1971 but only raced once, by Helmuth Marko and Gerard Larrousse, in Martini-Porsche colours. It was the designated development car for anti-lock braking systems, and spent most of its days pounding the Weissach test track, until being mothballed until being called into service as the road car. Rossi ordered that the car be painted silver, as Germany’s national racing colour is silver. The only place where the barely-modified 917K reached roadworthiness conditions was Alabama, where it was registered on Alabama plate 61-27737.
The second 917 converted for road use was another 917K, converted for German Joachim Grossbad. The car was painted pure white with black wheels, and featured the same modifications as the Rossi car, but with a more luxurious interior. It was given German registration CW-K 917.

The Kaengsaeng 88. A North-Korean copy of the Mercedes 190.
Hows this for a Vauxhall? Its called the XVR and built in 1966.
And then there was this Indy Car. Its a 1964 S-C Corp'n Hurst Floor Shifter. The driver sits in the side pod with the gearstick in the middle. The little hands are cool to.
The Audi Group S prototype. The only one in existence, because, Ferdinand Piech, in a piqué of rage upon learning Audi was developing the car without his knowledge, ordered all the cars destroyed.
Since this one car was a secret even to those in on the secret project, it survived.
This car was, strangely, supposed to be a Group B rally car, the replacement to the Quattro. It had the Quattro's engine, with its 1000 hp potential, and a superior midship layout. Walter Rorhl only got to drive the prototypes a brief time before they were cancelled.
Absolutely amazing. And despite knowing a little about Group B, I'd never seen anything about this car till today.
