There is no way that American Dream is not here included. It is awesome, and it comes with pool + helicopter!

Sadly, the car is now in this shape: s.yimg.com/os/en-US/cms/autos/Boldride/longest-car-in-the-world-restoration.jpg

Damn. I misspeled Jays surname: he is Ohrberg not Ohberg.

I dont want to be admin because I was angry on Rinspeed, but I want to be admin when I will deserve to be admin.

Rinspeed a écrit
If you want I can help splitting those?

JFK a écrit
You really put a lot of effort into adding cars to this site. Rinspeed offered to make you admin, and I certainly wouldn't decline that offer. It allows you to copy engines, making it a lot less effort to add new engines. Also, your new cars will be accepted automatically, making it easier to edit and receive comments after you add something.

As far as I know this was sold in Czechoslovakia between 1988 and 1989 for more than twice as much as basic Skoda Favorit, so yeah, it was pretty expensive and luxurious car back then.

That could be possibility too. I never saw this car in person, so I cant tell.

Wow, this was sold in Europe? I would have never expected that, with the Kadett being around.

As for the taillights issue, I think a specific trim level has taillights that go across the rear, and the other (lower) trim levels have simple taillights.

Looks like French counterpart to Velorex 435.
And yes, I chosed a main picture with James May who did not enjoyed driving this car.

Well damn.

does it have a steering wheel?

JFK a écrit
Yes, it is for me.

Is this a car or not? farm3.static.flickr.com/2385/4510007771_e1e496f8b1.jpg

yes but i hadn't the time now, i had also to do Citroen, peugeot and Renault (Europe, Brasil ...)

in translation of Korea page there is a 1990 year for it

Rinspeed a écrit
I found it. Maybe.
1991: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daewoo_LeMans#/media/File:Asuna_GT.jpg It have that back end that is shown in my previous comment.

Rinspeed, I think that we should create a make for Daewoo Europe and another one for Daewoo Korea.

JFK a écrit
thanks

Rinspeed a écrit
I thought 1990 like you said, but I dont have any info about it, I will try to it somewhere from internet.

and in korea in which year is the restyling? (i had to change the engine year for korea) if you had the info...

Rinspeed a écrit
Proably rear lights, and it wasnt in Europe as far as I found out:

In this page, you can see 1993 Racer with rear end like older one (yeah, it got some sort of lights across whole end, but it isnt that massive update than asian version, could be aftermarket too), and different front is proably because it is "sporty edition" auta5p.eu/katalog/daewoo/racer_05.php

I had pass 1 or 2 hours to see more details for it. I see a restyling in 1990 but in Korea? Korea and Europe? I don't know (and i don't know also what is the restyling)

JFK a écrit
The Ford Comète is also under Ford Europe, so that would be fine.

The CX-7 was succeeded by the CX-5. According to Autoblog, it represents a successor for the CX-9.

I would like to add someday its predecessor - Ford Vedette. But it was built under Ford France, so I guess we are not going to create another Ford brand, so I will just do it under Ford Europe brand.

Rinspeed a écrit
You are welcome

JFK a écrit
thanks!

Managed to do one kilometer with car that moves when is going past start (dat explanation skills) in czech car and czech driver in speed 276 km/h. Car was specialy desgined by Tatra and restauration workshop Ecorra Lubina to surpass the record from 1950s, but different guy took one day before Ecorra ride MTX Tatra Sport V8 and surpassed the 50s record with much lower speed. Records can be overwritten one time per year, and Ecorra team did not tried it again in 1998. So this car didnt officialy surpassed the record, but defacto it did by 66 km/h.

Later, the car was bought by some racing team and it did about 70 races, but there are no good sources of which races were drive with it and in what place did this finished.

record of what?

Did Tatra actually lose a lot of money in 10 years? I think the models of the 60s look really interesting, like something rich people would drive. These 90s models however look kind of simple and behind on luxury cars from the UK and USA.

A long time ago, after a quite serious crash is this car converted to coupe. Sadly, engine was replaced by standard one with 1/2 of the original 700 GT power. Original 700 GT engine was mounted to car called Grafit (graphite), and I have feeling that I find the car, now called Tatra Grafit - kinda looks like homemade lambo.
