Another Pininfarina gem, also with a flat (12) engine.  Ferrari Pinin.

Shame it never became a production reality.  Could have been a serious competitor for the Lagonda...........

 

There's a touch of the Senator about that grill.

Coaster Tremor:

I never would have guessed what that's based on, an Austin Ambassador of all things! Thought it looked familiar though and it turns out to be closely related to this beast:

Both were built by the Moreton family. The Tremor is owned by Trevor Moreton and the Mondeo thing is the Alamor owned by his son Alan. They also made this vintage-style van on a Morris Ital:

Ever wanted a Megane CC with the front end of a CLK? Well BYD got you covered...

According to Wiki, it has a 2.0, inline-4 thats powering the front wheels, via a 5-Speed CVT gearbox...

It sold a record setting 103 models over its entire production run! *According to Wiki

Its listed as both the S8 and F8, pending what photos you look at. (As in, some photos have S8, others F8)

Id love to know what chassis it's based on, knowing the Chinese market of the past 15 years it'll no doubt be a old  VW Passat, Citroen ZX or Austin Montego...

That's pretty. Really pretty.

PAG Chubby anyone? It's a Santana.

The back end design is very reminiscent of a Lancia Delta. Rather unfortunate name, though.

"I've got a chubby..."
