Tony_Simpson should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I agree with you on that first one, i think it is the Dutton as well. They were a kit car in the uk some years ago, but not heard anything from them for a while.

I think the second one is a Ford Cortina, its that or an Alfa Arna or something as random as that. btw, that is a guess from the file name, and not alot else.

Thanks for the welcome!

Yes, I am indeed a fan. Can't afford the real thing, so attempting the 'build your own kit car for 37 pence' thing...

The budget's already blown, by the way!

There are many Duttons still on the road, some after several rebuilds. There is also an active owners clubhttp://www.duttonownersclub.co.uk Tim Dutton still makes cars- amphibious ones!http://www.timdutton.com

(The second one was a Mk2 Granada.)

Ah, this was Staurt Turners Group B brainchild, they only made 200 and it had a 250 bhp Cosworth BDT engine, (or 420-ish bhp for competition) viscous-coupled 4 wheel drive, and it was bloomin' quick.


Ford RS 200!

1920's, certainly, but what...?

A Riley? Vauxhall? Sunbeam? Could be any! Most likely a Bentley though!

Wow, great game, I'm 5/8 so far. I'm thinkingbthe laststes one might be a Bentley 4 1/2 litre.

Bottle, the headlights are the only parts in common between the XD Falcon and the Mk 2 Granada, though the Falcon leant very heavily on the Granada for styling.

I've been told off for making that comparason before-(ring a Bell ) although I can't help but think of an Austrailian friends reaction when he encountered our Granada "Oh God, its a Falcon"
I wish there were the same engines for Granada's as Falcons- no V8 option and 2.8l is the biggest in the Mk2's!

Nope! We're confident it is indeed a Bentley. About 1928/9, most likely a Speed 6, although it's difficult to tell not seeing the full extent of the grille.

Just lovely.

O.k, No.9 is a 1929 Bentley.

Here's no.10- a little clue this time, it's not a car!
