    It nearly did to be honest, my first thought was a Focus RS but then I spotted the slash down the side ending by the rear arch.

    An old Alfa Romeo of some sort ? (but the wipers don't look right ?)

    Well spotted mate, well spotted! I didn't expect anyone to get it that quickly

    I'm not sure if it's a 76, wikipedia has the image tagged as a 73 but wikipedia's not always right.

    Your go dude, get cropping

    Re: Guess the car mk2 : the public version

    Cheers Knox, I have to admit that it was an educated guess as my dad used to have one

    Sorry guys, but I have not been online since before christmas, but I will try and get a pic put up for the next guess, unless someone else wants to throw one up as I am pretty busy at work (got no access at home for a couple weeks while house is being renovated)

    Re: Guess the car mk2 : the public version

    Took me a while - amazing how your brain chucks something close in your head but then you start talking yourself out of it...

    My turn:

    One of my favourite cars (not sure why, must be obscure childhood memories...)



    (too easy?)
