[Closed] Show me your Sport Cars

4 door, 1600 sport badged mk11, went like stink.
[img] [/img]
Ford engined again.
[img] [/img]
Yes, the Costello version.
[img] [/img]
Just remembered both the Reliant and the MG were two tone brown/beige. Yuk!
[img] [/img]
[img] [/img]
That's about it.

Quick enough, good handling car. Makes it a sports car in my book. Bikes in shot. Do I win?

[img] [/img]

Lots of fun and gets a slagging, may not even qualify.

[img] [/img]

Colournoise - Great shot, i've seen that picture before and it reminds me of Lichfield, Staffordshire everytime! I love the Renault sports.

[img] [/img]

[img] [/img]

Single turbo, 850cc primary & secondary injectors, supporting mods, just shy of 400bhp 😈

[img] [/img]
This was mine for almost 10 years, sold it yesterday:(

Loving the '7' replicas. I think it's an itch that will need scratching sometime soon.

2 triumphs here spitfire and gt6

[img] [/img]

Gt6 just like this one spitfires in bits still after 7 years rebuilding it 🙂

Not strictly 'sports cars' but both are quite quick. Can I claim double points for two cars and then double up for the bikes?
(btw the 159 is a 3.2 Q4 and that's Mrs Fruitbat's Punto Abarth))

[img] [/img]

Nice Fruitbat. I have a 159 Ti Sportwagon.

Poster worthy if your a Toyota fanboi like myself, so few of them were made (even less survive)

Not really a sports car, but this is my Merc coupe on the Isle of Man. It was fun over the mountain, but not as much fun as on a motorbike.

[img] [/img]

Ok not mine yet but when I win the lottery it will be.

SPORTS CARS not saloons or hot hatches...

[img] [/img]

Not mine but mines the same.Had a blat around for a couple of hours earlier reminded me that I love it and I should get some new tyres.

davidjones - some awesome cars. Is that a scimitar?

Also, that RX7 is immense.

Or any other poster worthy car for that reason.

Is that a scimitar?

Grew up a bit

One day I will own one again - had one when I was 21. Only 1.3 & 90bhp but went like stink and cornered like it was on rails - worth good money nowadays.

[IMG] [/IMG]

Another one, how dull...

Jeez, pictonroad. Common as muck, these things.
Also, nice wheels 🙂

My old mans classic E-Type

Thats quality, a mate has one of them (or something similar. His has nowt in it, just a roll cage and two seats), unfortunately its in a shed on a farm somewhere and has been for a few years.

I'd give my right arm to get hold of a good one - quite possibly the best car I've ever owned! Can't be an XR2, no way - has to be a Supersport!

I'm saving my pocket money for one of these

I dont think his is a super sport. Think its got some sort of DOHC pinto engine in it and some other fancy bits and pieces. Its orange aswell!

FinLaw has a mint condition Delta Integrale HF ... mmm so nice and understated too

Oooh an old M3, or RS Turbo - for once davidtaylforth, we agree 😉

Sports Saloon anyway 🙂

[IMG] [/IMG]

+230bhp and sub 7sec 0-60

Prefer a white Mk1 RS though

Oooh an old M3, or RS Turbo - for once davidtaylforth, we agree

Ha, I generally usually agree. Although it makes for better "internet banter" if I pretend I don't.

Ha - love it, you t**t 😉

My first car & one I truly regret selling before I finished fixing it up. Had a built 1600 Kent, but I never got around to repainting it.

Not a sports car in the conventional sense, but it is lots of fun and has 350hp! [img] [/img] 🙄

And I can get the bikes on it 🙂

I used to have one of these [TVR Vixen] - didn't have enough money to fix it properly though so had to sell. Not very fast but fun.

The bike fits too 😉

Good to see a few other Sylvas cropping up in this thread!

I get to borrow my dads company car once in a while.
I'm insured on the company policy too. Cant complain.

Merc E63 AMG with disgusting Grey interior.

Erm, is that not a C63?

Dads old car, trying to get bike rack on, so he didn't have to ride back up to mijas.

I_ache, apeears your right 🙂 ! I've never been much into cars but this is lovely to drive.

[img] [/img]

Best car I've ever had and was my daily drive for a couple of years. Sadly not mine any more

Loving the Spitfires and GT6's - used to refurb them with my old man years ago. The mk2 escort is a beautiful car. Wouldn't say no to a Mexico

[img] [/img]

bit different to a focus or whatever, and does good noises.

Dont know if my two count, had an MX5 before the MR2 and liked that but love the MR2. Both slightly tuned and great fun. Couldnt find an image of the 2 together so ignore Queen-Ocelot, & any jokes about 'bikes' will get a poke in the eye 🙂 The celica is my main car (i only do 6k in it a year though prefer to walk/cycle) can take 3 bikes with seats down and has a very wide laod area which is ideal for delivering my paintings.

My old S2 Elise... Loved that car

[IMG] [/IMG]

My current car...

[IMG] [/IMG]

1967 Mustang, sadly departed
[IMG] [/IMG]

Not sure if this counts, but it was fun to drive and sounded good.

[img] [/img]

Now replaced with this which is a bit more practical for bikes.

[img] [/img]

damitamit, that must have been a huge pigeon!

[img] [/img]

Bikes go on the roof....

[img] [/img]

Recently had to let it go due to imminent arrival of mini STW'ers 1 and 2 🙁 You could get a bike on the back seat [i]juuust[/i] about...

(Location not model's own.)

[IMG] [/IMG]

Stolen from my drive way after having four new tyres fitted. Found burnt out in Norfolk after a succession of bank jobs...

One that I bought about 12 years ago

[img] [/img]

which was replaced by this after my commute went from 40 miles per day to 140miles (going from 321bhp to 118bhp and dropping about 4-500kg was different)

[img] [/img]

then this as it was a bit quicker

[img] [/img]

Followed by this when I got a 2nd sensible car, kept the Exige for about 8-9 years where it turned into a more track orientated car

[img] [/img]

Now have this when I wanted something that was a bit more public road friendly and got fed up with the Lotus reliability

[img] [/img]

This is mine...

[img] [/img]

Had a lot of fun in this
[img] [/img]

Which was replaced by its more lairy Japanese cousin
[img] [/img]

Which in turn gave way to this
[img] [/img]

I miss 'em all!

Thats my 330i with my old intense on the roof:

1964 Austin Cooper 1275 S, more fun behind the wheel cannot be had.

[img] [/img]

damitamit is that a T Sport?

Yup, thou lowered a bit and with GT side skirts.

Alfa and 3 series saloon owners - read the thread title! 😉

Playing on the Klaussen pass in our Elise.

[img] [/img]

Still have a hankering for the BMW ZM Coupe and almost got a Z4 Coupe, but decided to be a bit more sensible, so got a 130i instead:

[img] [/img]

Very nice matey, being dying to line up next to a Celica for a looooong time. (The Corolla would obviously win) 😉 😉 😉

(closed roads or track of course)

Damitamit, have you got any other modifications on yours?

Damitamit, have you got any other modifications on yours?

Nope, it's lowered, got GT side skirts and covered keyholes. That's about it (oh, and painted calipers and uprated pads). I actually managed to find one that had all the mods I wanted already done, so bought it like that.

Is yours a TSport?

Klunk, is that yours? Made me do a little man wee! 😀
Mine is a 1979 special with most of the interior removed and a med 1380 A+ engine. Its only about 115bhp and never fails to make me laugh. A lot.

Get a pic up of the Celica post wash 😉

I hadn't included real Mini's,

I also have this in the garage at home, (the red one)
[img] [/img]

(and a period picture of it, from before I was born I'll quickly add)

Is yours a TSport?

Yes, I have had some memorable drives in it. I just happened upon a 'mint' facelift one from a friend in the trade and was really lucky but it took us ages to find a good MR2, we wanted a facelifted one but just couldn't find a straight one that wasn't way over book price. Settled for this late 52 from another Toyota club member.
