New Cars

[Wouter Melissen]

Good day,

Even though we currently feature well over 1700 cars in our database, I do realise that there many more cars that can be added. Unfortunately our time is limited and we can only publish cars of which we have proper information on and more importantly pictures we own the copyright of. Over the past couple of years our photographers have visited dozens of events, so we do have quite an archive of pictures.

At the moment the cars featured are picked by us, but we would like to give you the opportunity to indicate what cars you would like to see added. Please do realise that we are bound by the aforementioned factors and we can not add each and every car suggested.

This thread will be moderated strictly, so please just post the car you want added and if you happen to own it, please indicate that as well. Posts with additional comments will be deleted!

Thank you for your time and enjoy your visit and future visits

That's interesting stuff there Egg Nog. I saw one of those at the Frankfurt Motorshow, but I didn't really pay much attention to it. Luckily I got one quality shot of it, so it should be added soon.

[IBrake4Rainbows]

Porsche 928/944turbo/968
Older BMW's, e30 M3 evolution II, E34 M5, etc
More of mitsubishis model range, their is more than the Evo!
Renault Laguna.
More Volvo Pics!
Japanese oddballs! like the Honda LifeDunk and Mitsubishi Hearty Run Dion, and Isuzu Begin Funkybox! i don't know why, but they sort of intrigue me!

I'm sorry but I can't feature that car until I get high resolution imagery of it that I'm allowed to publish. That is the main problem with most cars provided by you guys. I might have some 944 shots.

delfino feroce

honda crx:D

[fpv_gtho]

I think the BA Falcon XR6 Turbo should be added to the site, the car's turning into a cult car here and Ford have waiting lists of several months for people wanting the car's

[lfb666]

Cars I want:
1- Lobini H1
2- Alvis TE 21 - 1965
3- Maserati Shamal - 1990
4- Audi Aztec - 1995
5- Ferrari FX

[r34_296kw]

what is a "sticky" thread? :confused:

[fpv_gtho]

i think its a thread thats always in the same position, in the case of this thread its always up the top of website discussion. this way if no-one posts on it for about a month, it doesnt slowly find its way down the list of threads and end up not being shown, in which case, you would have to reset the types of forums you want to view judged on their last post to get it up and post on it

[henk4]

Good idea about the Alvis, very underrated car, and not getting the attention it deserves, also from the run of the mill classic car magazines. I'll give you for appetizing. (I think it's a TD though)

[IBrake4Rainbows]

a lot of classic cars are actually quite cool, and i wouldn't mind if we had them on the website. Stuff from the 70's, 60's, 80's and such i find really quite attractive. some, like the Aston Martin Lagonda, i can live without, some like the Ford Escort RS1800 i want really bad. could we do a special on old rally cars (Group B,A and 60's and 70's racers)???

oh, btw, i thought the Audi Aztec was from 1988, it came in a group called the Aspid, the Asgard and the Aztec. I heard it actually went into a production of 200 cars.

Just two Escorts for you then, one, (admittedly low quality pic) where regular Top Gear might be able to recognize the driver. BTW the new forum allow much easier uploading of pictures. Great.

[r34_296kw]

happy birthday henk4

[IBrake4Rainbows]

Yes, it sure does give easier uploading of pics, and downloading too, good job! I also like how it has thumbnails rather than the whole bloody picture because i used to have a hell of a time reading forums because of my slow bloody comp!

And I thought it was Giugiaro who designed them! maybe i'm wrong.....

[henk4]

happy birthday henk4

Thanks, have a liquid one my account :D

[Falcon500]

Well i wouldent mind some more Studebakers Like cruisers,daytona coupe,Golden hawks. And i cant believe you missed the bullet nose one of the most pupular studes ever! (also the car of fozzy bear from the muppets :D )

[henk4]

Thanks, that confirms that the mirror image I posted earlier is a TE21, similar vertical headlight. Graber did a great job on these cars, although underneath they not have been the most modern.

Alvis - The Bird

[lfb666]

Alvis salidan
Alvis Salidan Armoured Car introduced in 1959 as an Armoured Reconnissance vehicle. It had a top speed of 45mph and was powered by a Rolls Royce 8 cylinder engine. The vehicle waqs driven by all six wheels and steered by the front four. By the 70s the vehicle was no longer suitable for front line duties.

45 MPH is pretty good for a vehicle that size, and it was a 6X6. :p

[henk4]

The Alvis reminds me of my own personal mount while doing service: The DAF YP408. It was diesel powered and 6X8. It could do 85 kph on the road. The picture is taken from a dedicated website to this vehicle.

By the way, the correct name is Alvis Saladin.

I'm not sure how to check but if you don't please add the: 300c SRT-8 and Magnum SRT-8, they are wonderfully built cars and are fun to ride in.

how about some australian muscle and racing cars, Toranas, Commadores, XY 's and so on.... the sorts of things that raced at bathurst over the past 30 years

[drakkie]

Perhaps it would attract a lot of people if there were proper articles about cars that are very common.For example my dads Citroen Xsara.There is simply no place on the web i could find with proper story and pics.Since lots of people own cars like these (i mean common cars) it is likely that they search the web with these terms.If they end up at ucp, i can hear the ad-money flowing in :) These cars are also not too hard to come by for pictures.

[henk4]

Welcome to UCP. The problems with those cars, interesting though they are, is that they hardly come to Europe, so catching them with a camera is bit difficult, unless UCP takes the trip to downunder:)

what if UCPers find pics? I'm more than happy to wander around and get pics of aussie stuff if they are needed so they can be put up

"found" pics are normally under some sort of copyright. It would be probably OK to put them into a dedicated forum thread, but not on the main page as feature cars.

Would taking our own pictures of cars classify though? I'd be quite willing to go out and take pictures of cars that people don't get overseas, so that they can be used for UCP.

don't take this personally but I assume you understand that also those pics need to meet certain quality critera:)

[drakkie]

Offcourse they will need to be checked first before being put on the main page.the owner of the pictures and the car should probably also need to give his permission (written?) to prevent abuse and legal crap...

This 1965 Alvis is on my top 10 list of classics. It is a brilliant car.

I agree, we need more common cars. It's mostly only the high performance/expensive versions of certain cars that are featured.

Examples: Megane RS and Clio RS but no normal Megane or Clio; Only the 406 and 407 Coupé Peugeots are featured, all the others are race cars or concept cars. Where's the 207, 206, 406, 407, 607, 806, 807 etc ?

Can't you get press releases with pictures from the manufacturers to put on the site ? If you can get these you can easily and quickly add a lot of cars. Get all the press releases from a certain make, add them, get press releases from another make, add them. etc etc.

EDIT: Maybe some simplyfying is in order as well. Take for example the BMW 760Li, 760i, 745i, 740d, 645 coupé, 650 coupé, 645 convertible, 650 convertible. They all have separte pages. Why is that ? Why not just a single page on "The E65/E66 7-series" and the "6-series Coupé" & "6-series Convertible". There are other types as well like: 730d, 730i, 740d, 745d, 750i, 735i, 630i and probably some other as well. Same goes for the 1-series and t
I can understand that you make a separate page for special models like the M models in BMW's case. It's not only like this with the BMWs.
