The trouble with that particular car (and, indeed, that particular era) is that a lot of models look dishearteningly similar to one another. They seem to share a variety of common elements such as grille shape, headlights, wheels and the overall, uhm, primitive geometry. I think you should give us something slightly more distinctive-looking next time.

Well i choose this because i knew that many people wouldn't be knowing about this car and many of the top guesser would also get confused which was true.But yes next time i shall keep that in mind.

Well a much easier car than the one i posted before.It should be guessed easyly.

So you need to identify-

1) Year

2)Make

3)Model

ID:706 is a Lancia Beta HPE. No idea which year though so my guess is mid-70's. The rims are a dead giveaway, by the way.

Spot on.Its a 1974 model.Now i guess i need to look for something really unique.

As far as I know, ID:707 was a little more than a mere prototype:

Is it a Lancia Fulvia not sure about the year i think sometimes of the 60's i would guess.

Double Mac · 10th November 2009, 22:16

It's not a Lancia but, yes, it came out in the mid-60's.

Is it a BMW 700 series?

Double Mac · 10th November 2009, 22:54

No, the BMW 700 has been posted quite recently. It's not a Michelotti design either.

IndrojitSircar · 10th November 2009, 23:58

Ok is it a very well know manufacturer or a rare and not so know manufacturer of its era?

Double Mac · 11th November 2009, 00:07

Well... it wasn't overwhelmingly popular but I definitely wouldn't classify it as obscure either. On top of that, the company isn't unambiguously defunct but the old name hasn't been in use since the 1990's.

IndrojitSircar · 11th November 2009, 01:17

Is it a hillman or a sunbeam?

Double Mac · 11th November 2009, 01:23

It's not a British product at all.
