Toyota needed a name for its new luxury car brand, they took the essence of the brand and the market they were targeting. They wanted nothing to compromise this new model. The Lexus LS 400 redefined luxury.

A 3 litre V6 pick-up, based on the Cortina chassis. This is how Europeans do redneck-rich. Its still more practical than your F-150, and with less than 5 on the road its more rare.

The Jensen FF, not to be confused with a 'run-of-the-mill' interceptor. The real difference is in the FF (Ferguson Formula), this denotes its AWD capabilities. The first of any production car to do so.

I'm keeping two Audi 100s alive with their 100% galvanised bodies, having learnt what rust did to my previous classic cars.
However, despite both ours being rust-free after 35 years, there's only a few left with their engine/trim combination 😞
Take a Renault Clio, give it the turning circle of an aircraft carrier. Slap a V6 in the middle, give it some big vents. This is the Renault Clio V6. Gotta love the French.

When Audi released the 100 avant, it looked completely space age. A split-glass hatch like an Espada and enough room inside to host a conference. What could possibly go wrong?

TVR needs no introduction, and neither does the Tuscan. Mostly because its heard before it's seen. Unfortunately, due to the unique location of the battery, the car is prone to bricking itself.
