I have seen 3 people sat in a 911, heck knows how, maybe the one in back was a midget. Never seen 4 adults in one, they fit easy in any Skyline, it's a big car a model up from the old Bluebird 1.8GL coupe and that had the same back seat as the 4 door saloon. Feck all luggage space on the GT-R thou - less than 1ft deep - all petrol tank.
4 door 4 seat booted saloon is not at all comparable to a 2+notquite2 coupe with f*ck all luggage space unless you use the back seat and make it a 2+0.Dunno much about them, you've got me there. Are there any Intergale still running? How many did they make? Was anyone in the UK actually stupid enough to use a Lancia let alone an Integrale as a daily driver?
Doubt very much if you could get a gents racing bike or 2 6ft glass shower doors in an M3, it's lacking a hatch and fold down seats. Or are you talking about the 200SX S14?
If you had ever had a car with Japanese made electrics you would know the difference. The TR7 was the pinnacle of Joe Lucas's attempt to destroy the UK's motor industry. They had done for the bike industry and had moved on to the car industry by failing to develop and supply electrical system that worked reliably for a competive price. Also the TR7 was made by a workforce intent on making rubbish. Landlords wife had one when I was at college about 25 years ago, it was s**te then and can't have improved with age. Pop up's did or didn't at random, always in the garage for one thing after another. It looked the part. Now if they had put the Dolly Sprint engine in it instead of that gutless BL POS, that would have been something - fast and fragile the 16v heads are reported to crack. The Michelotti Triumphs still look right even now. Dad had 2 Triumph 2000's in the late 60's, lovely leather and walnut with nice chrome rimmed dials and that neat
8 light tell tale, clunky Lucas switches let it down. One snapped it's crank while running in, so he got an Audi 100S coupe. Having stopped buying British he got a Datsun in the mid 70's, had one Rover (6 month old current plate bargain) in the 80's learnt his mistake when it started doing silly things like CV joints at 60K miles and has now gone back to Jap.Possible fair cop if you mean the early 80's Celica Supra 2.8i (MKII) both have become rust but the Toyota engine will still be running and oil tight unlike Fords. I had a '84 2.0XT liftback Celica it was petty much a Japanese 2.0L Capri. Only it went from 65K to 124K miles in 5 years on 1.5 exhausts, a wheel bearing, a set of brake pads and shoes, 2 sets of tyres, alternator bruhes, starter motor (burnt out by prior owner using undersized battery and excessive cranking) a clutch and a battery. Just had DIY oil and filter changes. At 15 years old everything still worked just as it should. 2 liter Fords tended to eat camshafts and everything electrical was broken tat by that age and mileage. Ford from those days were great cars that never go wrong so long as you keep them up on axle stands.
HA HA Ha get some new rose tinted specs.
