Autoshite Top Trumps - Nominate Your Car!


Recommended Posts

How do I change the thread title?

 

I reckon a rating of 1 - 20 for Autoshite-ness, although with some of the weird and wonderful stuff on here there could be a lot in the 18-20 bracket.

If you edit the first post, then go to More reply options you can edit the title there.

If anyone wants to nominate their car and include relevant details I'll post them up, if we get a packs worth we can take it from there!

Holy thread resurrection, Batman!

 

I'll have to dig out some stats for various cars.  Chompy's Daihatsu Applause and my facelifted Renault 6TL would be good contenders I think.

 

Skattrd has many strong contenders including an UMM and the Sera with the eye-destroying white interior.

I can't do it on my phone but if anyone fancies doing mine for a laugh then feel free. Its a 1500 SE so they only made 2163 of them IIRC.

Yeah, surely everyone is going to want high numbers.

How about something based around a HML figure, the lower the number remaining the higher the AS value. Only double figure left means 15, less than a thousand is 10, less than 10k is 5.

 

Plus 3 if it's been in the calendar.

Plus 2 if more than two shiters own one.

Plus 2 if it can run on veg

Can't really do a how many left column, it would only be applicable for right now, it would be nice if these could stick about for a bit

I was going to ask if D was for Germany or Denmark.  Then I realised Denmark don't produce any cars.  Then I realised I'm on Autoshite so someone is probably about to correct me and produce the Danish Pastryburg 400 from 1952 which was based loosely on the Skoda 1000MB with Tatra running gear and, inexplicably, a helicopter engine transversely mounted on the roof.

hey wait.... what if there is only one in the world?

Why are we conjuring rules?  We don't need rules.  Just numbers and pictures of horrible/unloved/valueless/surprisingly good/unbelievably shit cars.

fine as long as usage as transmission oil or to stick dirt onto rusty parts to pass MOT counts as well...

I thought they were quite common..

I like Pillock's suggestion of a vaguely objective stat but whatever we do there will be disagreements over what is Autoshite.

 

Can I suggest that whoever makes the card does the rating and it's left at that unless there's a glaring error, such as only giving a horsey horseless sport a shite rating of 3.

seems we will win a guiness record book entry for creating the first 500 card trump game...

If you'd like me as your official Autoshite Top Trumps designer, then I am afraid you will have to let me decide the rating.  Of course, you can always scribble it out and put your own in.  Or I can be bribed.
