So, I've noticed many people in the forums have been talking about old cars they have. SO basically this is a place to post about your classic and upload a picture, if you want to. RULES: don't critisize other classics a car that first started production after 1982 doesn't count (eg if you had a SAAB 900 from 1986, then it would count because the range started in 1979), but exceptions can be made for important sports cars or cars with some historical significance under 1996 feel free to post pictures, but you don't have to Also, you can rate the car above. So, I have a 1956 SAAB and a little red Mini with a union jack on the roof.
Well, my classic wouldn't count by your criterion, (it's a 1990 Lotus Elan M100), even though it's registered in the local Classic Car Register (here in Italy we have ASI - Automotoclub Storiche Italiano, that allows anything older than 20 years to be registered as a classic, provided the vehicle is rare and/or of proven historical significance). Anyway, I don't have it anymore, since it was stolen and never retrieved... EDIT - It looked just like this...
I have a red Citroën 2CV6 from 1981. It was my dad's first car, and he gave it to me a while ago. It has over 114.000 kilometers on the clock and the engine is in dire need of refurbishment. It is also in need of a respray (I am however still not sure about the color.) and some rust spots need welding although this is nothing serious.
Sounds like a nice trustworthy ride. Sometimes it's good to take a break from the super-expensive mint showcars and step back into the real classic world. --- Post updated --- I changed the rules to fit your ex-car, as it's classic, I agree. I'm sorry to hear it was stolen!
Peugeot 205. Le sacré numero. Started manufacturing in '83 I think so I'm cheating a bit here. It's a future classic, especially the GTi versions. Mine has the GTi engine but not the looks. @Ulrichou86 you've got a Peugeot 404, right?
I've got a 1953 5-window GMC pickup. As they'd say on Roadkill; "it's mint" (serious project), but I have big plans for it.
i just recently bought a audi 90 quattro from 1989 it has the 5cyl engine with 170bhp it took quite some part in racing so does it qualify?
I have a '98 Porsche Boxster in Arctic Silver Metallic. It has approximately 100,000 km. on it. NOTE: These photos were taken from my dad's Facebook page.
The 205 is a definite classic --- Post updated --- That's nice and proper old. How much did it cost you? --- Post updated --- Coooooooooooooooooooooooool. Is it hot-rodded? --- Post updated --- I'm having some serious malfunctions here...
Well you could count cars that are 25 years or older as classic cars. But any way I obviously don't own any classic cars let alone any car under my name, but any way my dad owns two Humber Super Snipes one was my grandfathers that he brought new in 1962 and the other one is a 1963 model that my dad saved for $250.
Look at all the fun old cars! The old SAAB must be enjoyable to own. I have a '76 Chevy Malibu Classic. It's not the most pretty, but it's reliable, cheap, and a joy to own. I much prefer old cars to newer ones.
I'm having some Yeah --- Post updated --- That looks like it could be Donked no end. I'm glad you haven't!! --- Post updated --- noice
1964 Opel Kadett A Coupe. It's my dad's car but I drove it more this year than anyone else has driven it the last 5 years. And well, I'm the only one who is against selling it every time. And well, I'd say my Fiat counts as a future classic.
1986 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser. Started production in 1977. I'm in the middle of restoring this forgotten beauty and I've bagged it. It's incredibly incredibly difficult getting any parts for this thing. Part support just isn't available. I've found one in a junkyard about a year ago that I snagged a few parts off of but they are incredibly rare. The Olds 307 that comes with her is incredibly week for 5000 pounds of car, 141 horsepower. Planning on LS swapping it. But before I do anything like that I need to get this thing in prestine condition. Body-off restoration. You just don't see this car anywhere. The caprice is a lot more popular.
