This one is stumping me a little but im guessing its based on a triumph because of the wire wheels and its dashboard... Is it a Bond Equipe of some kind?

Found this in Edinburgh yesterday
What is this ? It looks a bit like an old 1930s Chrysler Imperial but then again not quite.

Fairly sure it is an Excalibur Sedan
I know the name of this but I've forgotten and it's annoying me
It's not an Excalibur, but it's something that was built in the 1980s..
If the OP's got a high-res picture, you can see what it says on the bonnet..
Its an Excalibur

Not sure he has, But I've had the chance twice at bedford and he is kind right lol
Just confuses me because it goes against almost all the reviews i've read of the new xkr. Granted its not going to be a completely track focused coupe but by the sounds of it its hardly boat like, and belies it size.

tbh it was more lack of steering feel I didn't like. steering just too light, Gear changes too slow (paddle change) I guess it didn't totally feel it's size but you are aware it ain't small.
They sold all the XKR's at palmer and replaced them for M3's, Pretty much every one I talked to both times I drove them didn't enjoy them as much as anything else on the day, Kinda felt they were being used to advertise the car and sell them not for their track ability.

Neither - it's the pain job for those with no imagination and a desire to willy wave. So many great looking cars wrecked by muppets with black matt. The only car I've seen look great in matt black is the Nissan GTR. IMO of course.

Since no one has guessed, it's a Gilbern Invader, an attempt from the Welsh at building a car.
The chassis looks like it's made from angle iron and the body work is all fibre glass.
Had a similar scenario the other day, I WISH I GOT PICTURES but the GF was too embarrassed when I got the camera out
It was made even more hilarious by them noticing we had clocked on and were laughing. The chap had a face palm moment and rightly so.
are you sure it wasn't a brabus edition merc? They have all of the mercedes badges replaced with a B (including the wheels) that could be mistaken for a bentley logo... whoops!

Another R8... Seem to be seeing these everywhere these days, they must be very fashionable.

Aye, I saw a Brabus Merc the other day. Was torn about whether it was worth a pic, but when I looked up the model it turned out to be a mid range diesel, so it's a good job I didn't take a pic or I'd never be allowed to post here again!
