How well do you know your cars... (56k warning)!

[Peerzy]

Went to the Haynes Motor Museum in Somerset this week and got a fair few pictures, I've got all the info boards for each car (or most) so I'll post 5 up at a time and see if you can guess them all. Got about 30 in total, some really old hard ones and some easy ones. Some have the writing in the background, but it would be too much to edit them all so try not to cheat!

Pictures all compressed to keep Fox happy, still about 200k each though but down from 2mb per image!

Example:

Answer: 2000 Mini Cooper Classic

Good luck!

Your 56K warning is unfounded!

All the images in the folder I have add up to nearly 20mb and Fox kindly pointed out people may have bandwidth limits and such so thought I'd add it just incase.

Any ideas on the cars?

It's got "Viper" written on the side, what more do you want

I suspect the banner might have just said SRT-10 though?

I'll leave it open for now, the card says a totally different car, no mention of Viper. Googling the name brings up a car that looks the same, bar a few minor differences. If someone can confirm it's a Viper I'll just upload the info anyway, not sure if I took a picture in the wrong order or they messed up.

 

[Peerzy]

16 is the fabled Aston Martin Lagonda, the car that wouldn't even start on it's own launch.

Yup.

17)

 

[Peerzy]

Fair enough, this was the card for it.

18)

 

[Peerzy]

SL of some description, Mk1 Golf GTi.

It's an SL but I'm after more, era or age?

Golf GTi is correct though.

You cant test us if you thought that was a corvette

I have no interest for anything American bar Mustangs. There were so many red cars there I'm pretty confused myself tbh.

14) MK1 Golf GTI
15) MK1 lotus elise
16) aston martin lagonda

[Peerzy]

17) ferrari 400/412

Well done!

21)

I've got another picture of this one but will be good to see if anyone can get it from the engine.

 

[Peerzy]

18) ferrari 410 superamerica ?

17 was a Ferrari 400i, 18 most certainly isn't (Going by the card...)

As someone pointed out 19 is a DB4.

22)

Not got a card for this one so no idea.

 

[Peerzy]

20) Aston Martin DBS v8 from the '60s
21) ??
22) sierra RS500 cosworth touring car

20 is correct.

22) Sierra Cosworth

intrigued by 21) two stroke three cylinder. Only two stroke i can remember is a saab, but it looks nothing like those.

I'll assume it's a Sierra Cosworth and add the next one.

21 is apparently a research vehicle.
