[Riso]

Your image doesn't work.

I've submitted a car.
I'm not very confident about the result because it was based on Znopresk and buil by russians: the Znopresk-ASAZ (Arkhangelsk-Severodvinsk Avtomobil'nyj Zavod) Z220-Est. Based on the old Z200 body and optimized for the Russian market. Still in production after 23 years, I'm not sure it will be a good seller but...

Tovarishch would like to introduce the sublime Tovarishch Banalost. (Comrade Commonplace)

With almost 100 horsepower and bodywork as strong as our Comrades skulls, it's sure to be a great contender.

Meet the 1986 Storm Travill GL, an American car made for the world market.

This one packs the mighty Storm Tradewind inline 4 as the engine of choice.

Fear my Single Overhead Cam!

Nice taillight arrangement Madrias.

[Madrias]

It's a bit of a standard of mine. Much easier now that I can shift-drag to make duplicates, but I've been doing that since I started playing Automation. It's simple, clean, and road legal just about anywhere, I think. I've found it to be one of those arrangements that, with a little tweaking here and there, looks good on just about any car. It helps that this is a body I've used an awful lot, as well.

I decided just to keep this one kinda clean. I've done some variations with that body style that can get a bit busy, a bit wild, and so I decided to make one that keeps things simple and somewhat classy.

Please welcome PolMot with their invention brought straight from 1986





PolMot Futuro

And for the first time ever we're presenting the heart and soul of our car



1.4 DOHC Inline 4 with mechanical injection delivers 124 Strops (a.k.a. horsepower ) and 128 Nm of torque delivered on the rear axle. Plus the invention that People's Republic of Poland has never saw before...
AUTOMATIC GEARBOX

PS.: I won't be surprised by finishing last

[Madrias]

Nice, Jason! Me, I'm going to wait until all of the entries are in before I show off the Tradewind I4, but I can say with reasonable honesty, it's a whole different beast.

Still, 1400cc isn't too bad. Keeps the car light, and provides a good healthy chunk of horsepower.

As I said, I will reveal the Tradewind I4 once the entries are in, and I think some people will be in for a surprise.

[JasonPoland]

I'm not saying what's my Drivability or Utility is with my car. I won't tell you that my car may or may not be a James May around Test Track

[strop]

My teaser is that the car is significantly quicker off the line as a FWD than RWD... Or even AWD.

[Lordred]

My teaser is that my car has four wheels as an option.
