The voices kept me up all night in my 'love shack' then the answer came to me like a bomb dropped from a WW2 US bomber
See you should listen to little voices, sometimes thier right - but that still won't hold up in a court of law. But do listen to them at the bar. Correct Sir. More pics   So as it's an Italian, off for my expresso and will be back with the next one. arrivederci  |

See told you it was a simple one,
Correct - NSU RO80 - there use to be around the the back of where I used to live in the 70's - always it looked a smart car.
Now on to the next, a touch harder.
What can you tell me about this one......

Well I can tell you it has a 2 cyl 583cc/598cc engine, good for around 130km/hr. First produced in Italy in 1959 and ended in Germany in 1967.
I tell you the name a bit later.

That grill looks a bit like Allard to me. Maybe a P type, early 50's which, IIRC, won the Monte Carlo in 52/53.

It does look familiar, and I thought it was an Allard too. i don't think its Bristol, Alvis, Frazer-Nash, Healey or Dellow, and I'm not sure whats left.
From memory the rear end is pig ugly

This car has been exhibited in the museum at the Le Mans circuit As for its rear, didn't think it looked too bad. |

I think I know what it is!
Come on Del, there is another british company maybe the most british of all!
Its won LM outright and been thru some very tough times but seems on a more stable footing now.
This car could be described as the link between post war and pre war for this maker and was a prototype.
As victor once said, I liked it so much I brought the company! could apply here.
The model shown shares its name with a single seat road car.
