Whats the rarest car you know about?

[obi_waynne]

I think we all know about a rare model of car that few people have heard of. Here is my unknown star performer.

It is called the DAX Kamala it is a kit car made by DAX. The gearstick is on the right of the driver as this is where the gearbox is located although the car is a left hand drive.

With a Cosworth engine you can get to 60mph in just 3.5 seconds and the kit cost is about £13,000 plus an old cosworth donor car.

For me it has got to be the ford T or the original GT40

What about the rarest one you don't know about ??

 

[obi_waynne]

Thats getting into the Al Gore "known knowns and unknown knowns speech!"

I'm sure there is a V8 Turbo mini that I don't know about.

i know of a few cars not rare that you dont ever see them but rare in the fact that you dont see them everyday and they are all immaculate condition and low mileage

1, a rolls royce silver shadow in white
2, a 1986 sierra rs cosworth in white
3, a 1991 renault 5 gtt in white 2 owners from new 30,000 on the clock and totally standard apart from a side exit exhaust
4, a vw country in like a graphite grey
5, a 1982 mk1 jetta in mars red
6, an escort rs cosworth in greeny/blue horrible colour but a nice car
7, a rover p6 i think thats what they're called

i would have to say the Gumpert Apollo race car made by the competitions chief of audi when they were making the quattro for rally

http://www.arikah.net/commons/en/c/c9/Gumpert_Apollo_Dubai.jpg

The Apollo is a 1100 kg, street-legal race car with up to 650 hp and 627 lb·ft of torque. sporting a 4.2L audi V8 with a six-speed sequential gearbox. The estimated top speed is 224 mph with 0–62 mph reached in 3.0 seconds, making it the 9th best accelerating production car in the world.

 

[obi_waynne]

I saw that car on www.cartuningtips.com Steve09 - its interesting to hace the background on it. Wow if only all Audi's looked like that!

Not seen a Tickford Capri in ages - they still look sharp even today! Thanks for the pics Herb.

 

[claymore]

Well, mine is the only supercharged marea weekend in the world (unless you can tell me different) so that's prety rare.

 

[obi_waynne]

Yup - thats certainly pretty rare glaymore. Literally one of a kind.

 

[nseries]

Check this Ferrari Out,

 

[pgarner]

ferrari 360 estate is it not ?

 

[nseries]

its kinda rare to see a Ferrari Wagon riding on the street.

 

[obi_waynne]

WoW - I never realised there was a family friendly Ferrari option!

 

[HDi fun]

Dunno - it's that rare it's not been built yet

 

[StevieDB9]

aston martin used to make estates years ago which i thought was a bit odd. anyways, what about the mercedes 540k? last went at auction for £4.(something)million.

 

[nseries]

WoW - I never realised there was a family friendly Ferrari option!

This Ferrari has been on road already.So far i guess its a limited edition only for the Sultan of Brunei Darussalam.Forgot to mention that this luxury Ferrari belongs to the Sultan Of Brunei.

 

[obi_waynne]

He's got quite a collection of cars. It's nice to see that the high price of oil that we are all paying is not being wasted!

 

[nseries]

I guess anuually he will go shopping for cars which are made "Limited Edition only for Brunei" Hehe

 

[obi_waynne]

It would be nice to say to Ferrari I want one of those but I need an estate version and I don't want it in red.

I bet Ferrari replied "But we've got so much red paint to use wouldn't you reconsider the colour option!"

See this made top gear today.
the 650hp version is the mid range one, the top version is 800bhp

 

[Papa J]

Ferrari 250 GTO 60's, the one that inspired the e type, with number plate '250 GTO' ooooooooooh nice.

 

[tommybhoy]

the porsche 959 1986 model triple k turbo 200mph best car produced

 

[Hayley1]

Its gotta be the batmobile that was on ebay a couple weeks ago.

 

[obi_waynne]

That's definately a one off. Which batmobile was it? I saw the old long one with the jet intake nose and side mounted turbos at the weekend, but I'm not sure if it was a replica or the original
