Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
Saw one of these outside a well known department store in Knightsbridge the other day
Took me a while to work out what it was - Speedback GT.
Most pics are from the rear quarter and I can kind of see why...

I love the British speed record thing they built out of a jet and the current one that is taking longer than Project Binky.

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
"One of the cars more unique features, especially when considering its size, was the fact that it had not one but two doors. On the drivers right is a conventionally hinged door, while on the drivers left is a roof-hinged gullwing door. This was implemented due to the Mini Comtesses size, which allowed it to park perpendicularly between two parked cars. In this case, it would prove difficult to disembark from the drivers right. To the left, however, egress and entry would be much easier."Lightweight_911 wrote:.

These are the type of cars the French drive when they've been banned from driving.
