Talking Name that ruddy car!

#I'velostcountwe'vehadsomany.

These have fallen out of favour in a major way for some reason...soo..let's get the, err, guess the car party started again..

I don't we need to know much - number the cars you post, person who guesses correct gets to post next car, if that person hasn't done so within two days then then someone else can put a new one up.

To start off:

#1 - what's this?



It shouldn't be too hard for, ahem, certain people.

Aston-Lexus. Hmm.

As far as my research takes me it is a one-off customized Lexus LS400 with an Aston Martin appearance to it owned by Costas Los, a LeMans driver who drove an Aston Martin race car.

Ha, I have no idea how you guessed that Odin but you are right - it is an Allard LS400.

Weird creation though.....who on earth thought an LS would look good with a rubbish Allard grille?

Re: Name that ruddy car!

OMG, that was gross... I can't find any info on that car, but this seems to be a rather disgusting travesty of Monteverdi (I mean the carmaker, not composer)....
