Err...is that not visible to everyone? It's OK on my browser...
One sec.
Either it's visible now, or here's a link to the pic in a photo album. Can you see me now?

A dim bulb brightens. Sorry guys, I was totally unaware that my picture wasn't displaying. I even spent some time looking up "Invisi-car" to see if they used a Bricklin as her ride!
It's a shame gullwing doors never caught on. They not only look cool, but actually require less side clearance than conventional doors (when hinged correctly; i.e. near the center of the roof).
In any event, hardrockcamaro gets another one, despite my attempt to hide the gullwing aspect by posting a side view... |

OK, I'll post this up before head off to bed... 
Although you can see it's a race car, they had to sell road going versions to the public with the same bodywork and mechanicals to use them in the racing.
Make and exact model in this race style trim please...

Actually it was a Renault 5 Turbo sports racing and rally car. One of the top "hot cars" of the 1980's |

Good thinking, you're all in the right ballpark, but wrong cars... |

It's a Renault R5 Turbo, the remaining question is which of many "homologation" versions (there were many) is this car. To know for sure we will have to find the exact photo shown with identifying captioning. So far I've had no luck! |

I think Rodya234 got it ....... a" MG Metro 6R$ Group B Rallye car." I never would have quessed it, I guess it had many iterations including one as a Rover. Did Rover buy the old stamping presses from Renault? | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
