Not for the faint-herated!
An oddball from 1974, please do not be too hard on British Leyland.
Just accept it as it is.

Cheers!

in full colour at Worst looking production road car!
and a couple of other monstrosities at Worst looking production road car!

From the days when BL thought they coudl retain a 'high-end' badge in their range and that sticking a BIG grille made a car look more expensieve and exclusive. You can see why they went bust !!!

I thought I posted this thread in Multimedia forum.
Am I soft in the head or did someone move it?

Cheers!

I'm going to guess that Matra moved it...because I didn't.

EDIT: Wouter confessed.

Do you think they actually realised they were calling themselves after a British Motor company that was once great but in the end only put out poor copies of other cars that showed no imagination, no skill and nobody bought them.

Hey, that sum up 90% of metal bands

All I can say then is that the photos flatter it, drakkie.

These are ugly monstrosities in real life.
Like shoulder-pads and spandex in the 80s

Vandenplas did OK with the Bentley 3-litre, and then lost track somehow.
