    Depending on how you look at it, it's quite easy or difficult.

    It looks so much like all the other late-70's/early 80's wedge cars, but none have that hideous orange blob. I'm sure I've seen it before, but I can't find it! :waah:

    If you want to take my place, Krikkit - It was your "70's wedge car" that lead me to the right wee beasty - Then go for it.

    My guess is a late 1960s TVR Vixen.

    EDIT 1: Might also be a variant of the Griffith - I really couldn't tell.

    EDIT 2: Oh yeah, those taillights were borrowed from Lotus Cortinas, I think.

    And here’s a rear shot of a mid-60s Grantura, to make things even more interesting. :)

    I have something untypically modern for you this time:

    Hmm, guess I’ll have to abstain from introducing post-mid-80s models in the future.

    Please, post something modern, Ian. I need a break from the thread. :)

    Here’s a sympathetic classic for you:

    It was based on this:

    (Which is intended as an additional clue.)

    Well… GET CRACKING, 007s (of this thread)! :D

    No. But, amazingly enough, there seems to be a slight similarity within that particular cropjob. The car in its entirety is quite different from the Equipe though.
