An Isuzu 117 Coupe, a testament to the ingenuity of Giorgetto Giugiaro during his time at Ghia, one example of how Giugiaro could design anything, and that’s why he is the “Designer of the century”. This model stands out as a trailblazer in the automotive industry, being the first Japanese car to feature dual overhead… Read More Japan feat. Giugiaro: 1981 Isuzu 117 Coupé
Although it may seem strange, this is not an aesthetically modified 924 with an aftermarket kit, but a rare vehicle. In fact, only 406 specimens of this model have been built, probably most of which still exist, however we are talking about very small numbers in relation to the current production of sports cars. This… Read More 1 of 406: 1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GT
Here is a type of all-terrain vehicle that rarely happens to publish, but this time it is a Volvo and is, at least apparently, perfect. The truth is also that it is the first time that we come across this model, of which we did not know its existence; surely, many readers were unaware of… Read More Swedish snowplow: 1981 Volvo C202 Lappländer

The most powerful car after the… Read More 7.5 seconds: 1981 Renault 5 Alpine Turbo
Update, same day: Turns out that the car is a real Carrera GT but this ad is a scam: the true car is for sale at €79k here in Milano, Italy. Santa’s dead, of course. There is an issue here: this Porsche 924 is advertised as a “normal” 924 but the look of the car… Read More Real or not: 1979 Porsche 924 “Carrera GT”
The last thing we’d expect to see was a BMW M1 in the typical “barn find” conditions: dust, flat tires and some stuff covering its nose and roof. But this is it. The former italian owner has driven this car for 7,329 kms and then he left it in a garage; of course something bad has happened… Read More Odd barn find: 1981 BMW M1
What you see here is not what you get. Actually we are oriented in reviewing cars from 1980 backwards but this is really worth a couple of considerations. Indeed this is not a Dino 246 but a Ferrari 308 GTBi which had a new body to seem what it’s not. The seller says that such… Read More Masquerade: 1981 Ferrari 308 GTBi “Dino 246” Coupé
