Not all prototypes are so ugly. Either of these would have worked. One's even a Triumph!!

The Lynx looks far too much like a TR7 (euch!) Martin.

[Staghound]

The green one looks like TR7 nose/Honda back end and I thought it was illegal to do cut and shut jobs!

Not that these two are ugly but anyone know what they are?

Well found out what the orange one is

Found it by waking up in the middle of the night with the thought that i used to have a corgi toy that looked similar. looked it up on ebay and sure enough it was.

Talking of ugly cars have you seen what this years regulation have done to the looks of the F1 cars. Lets hope Ferrari and Mclaren do a better job.

A good excuse not to fork out for Sky then!

Shame about the wheels, and the arches, the interior, the shape, the build quality, the amazing lack of space, - the colour's good though. An early example of nano technology. Martin.
