Probably you are correct. If so, I'd say 1968 McLaren M6B with 7 litre Chevrolet V8

Something like this (in the lower photo) from an H Mod special? http://www.ferrariexperts.com/etceterini%2061207/... For some reason, I find myself unable to imbed successfully

Rust is, after all, the number one post-war British export.

The Lotus Elan +2 S uses Smith's with the same bezels as Aston. And more wood than Sherwood Forest. <img src="http://www.maderaconcepts.com/NewSite/VehiclePages/vehicle_images/lotus/lotus-elan-plus-two-S130_1.jpg">

The photo is from a Lotus Europa dash (Mystery Car?). I've always liked the gauges from a Mk 1 Esprit. They are a unique green color. Bonus points for the tartan interior fabric.

Hooniverse : Hooniverse at the NTEA - The New Western Star 4700. A Truck Brand Poised for a Comeback

At the present moment, I'm about 2-3 miles away from the factory where they build these beasts. This new model looks a little wimpy compared to their usual output, but I wish them luck.

FYI, the parent company is Daimler Trucks, North America. For a while they marketed the Unimog in the US. I find them to be more to my liking <img src="http://www.benzworld.org/forums/attachments/sale-wanted-trade-giveaway/169417d1206467611t-2004-unimog-u500-sale-010.jpg">

I've always wanted a Daimler Ferret Scout Car of my own. <img src="http://parrotheadjeff.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/ferrett.jpg"/> They're armored, they're powered by a Rolls Royce B60 straight six, they have a preselector gearbox, and they're small enough to Fit in a normal-sized parking space. Oh, and they are cool looking as hell.

It was tough trying to limit myself to just one. I'm tempted to go for the Mustang SSP <img src="http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/12/2010/03/500x_ford_mustang_police_car.jpg"> But I'm ultimately forced to choose the Mk 1 Lotus Cortina <img src="http://www.lotuscortinainfo.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/50.1.4-Lotus-Cortina-Police-1.jpg" width="550">

The three Range Rovers all had niggling problems, but the youngest was 13 years and 100k miles old when i bought it. The Defender has been flawless. Two "fresh off the showroom floor" Discoveries (Discoverys?) were likewise fine.

My first two thoughts, Peugeot 404 and VW 411/412 were wrong...
