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

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)

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 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.

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

Kinda hard to tell with this one...is it supposed to preview a return of the CX-7 (if it has 5 seats) or the next CX-9 (if it has 7 or more)?

The shape of the rear has me leaning towards CX-7.

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

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.

thanks!

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.

I don't know if you can actually call it a car. In the Netherlands, you only need a scooter license to drive them. Also they are not counted towards Dutch car sales.

Well, it have 4 wheels and roof, but I see your point. In CZ we have it aswell, that you can drive it when you have scooter licence. I called it in my comment rounabout (oddly, when I translate it from CZ to EN, it works, but not vice versa - it means something like small car, that is not suited for long trips and driving outside of town), and micro-car would be suitable too I guess.

What a fancy name with long history of using it on hi-powered cars for roundabout with amazing 5 HP.

:think: Well, that is the first time I heard about somebody did from bigger engine smaller. Usually for racecars mechanics will do the standard engine bigger.


They did it to make this car able to start in 1600 ccm class (due to 1,4 coefficient). But I have no idea why they chose 120 engine instead 105. Maybe because S120 engine is a little bit "squarer" what is make engine more flexible. But it's just a blind guess.

I guess because back in 1990s were combis bought to haul stuff and not to be pretty, so Peugeot just passed the Break. Mercedes CLS Shooting Brake with expensive kind of wood floor is an example of degeneration of combis these days.
BTW: where I can find this line? A = Accept, E = Edit, R = Add results for a driver, D = Delete I am not sure in which exact context it is, so I need to see the page for correct translation of "Add results for a driver"

it seems that the Break hadn't the restyling that the rear of the sedan had in 1992
