To gain a point, please give me the name and year of this car.

Djetset · August 23, 2015, 12:32:23 PM

Oh my, have all the Rookies run away? I put this one in as a test to see if any Rookies were still alive, as this car looks quite obvious, but alas not a single Rookie response, which is rather sad

So, Experts, it's time to fill your boots...

Djetset · September 22, 2015, 07:33:58 AM

I am astonished that no one has responded to this one at all, so up it goes...

Carnut · September 22, 2015, 07:38:30 AM

Hutson TF? Surely not...

Paul Jaray · September 22, 2015, 07:39:08 AM

Naylor?

Djetset · September 22, 2015, 07:44:54 AM

Ah, this must be more difficult than I thought, as it's neither a Naylor nor a Hutson.

Victor TF?

B**ger! I was just about to post that.

It's a lot more like a TF than most kits.

Djetset · September 22, 2015, 08:52:24 AM

Not a Victor TF, and not a kit either...

Just a 1953 MG TF then ?

I wondered if anyone would mention an MG! Sadly it's not one though.

So it's a replica but not a kit car, so it was only sold as a finished item ?

TD2000?

Carnut · September 22, 2015, 09:38:10 AM

Gentry?

Djetset · September 22, 2015, 09:46:12 AM

None of the above.

Alternative Cars?

Carnut · September 22, 2015, 10:11:29 AM

TG (MX-5 based)?

Djetset · September 22, 2015, 10:15:38 AM

None of the above.

1984 Harper Roscoe TF 1800 ?

Harper Roscoe ?

That's the one, the Harper Roscoe TF 1800, to give it its full title. This is one of 4 examples built in the 1980s. Another point to you.

According to one website, the moulds were taken from a Victor TF.
