10. Koenig Specials Porsche 930 Biturbo ? Sorry but still not the name I'm after, it's really very specific!
36. Rieger BMW 850 E31 ? Bingo!

4. 1991 Mercury Capri
5. 1998 BMW 3 Serie Compact Cabrio E36
Hi Cars, welcome! The aim of this particular puzzle is not to identify the base cars but rather who performed the tuning modifications. I'm afraid that I cannot accept these answers.

28. Schulz Tuning Mercedes Benz 190 E Cabrio 5.0, 1984 Correct make/model, wrong engine. Locked for you - very easy to find this one.

48.Treser Audi 100 ? Correct make, but it's not a 100. Locked for you to find the right model.

Is No.5 by Baur? Bau(e)r wasn't the one who did that to #5.

OK, I have some sources that say #28 had a V8 5.0 l. engine, and others say V8 3.8 l. Maybe they're two different cars (though they look the same to me)

And is #39 a Styling-Garage (SGS) 190E City Fun?

40. Delavilla Porsche Cayman R1 Yes indeedy!
48. Treser Audi 200 ? I have it as the 'Super 200', but I'll let it slide. :)


OK, I have some sources that say #28 had a V8 5.0 l. engine, and others say V8 3.8 l. Maybe they're two different cars (though they look the same to me) The one I got this from was fairly adamant that this is one is the 3.8, so I'll gladly accept that as correct - even if there may well have been both versions!

And is #39 a Styling-Garage (SGS) 190E City Fun? It IS! crazy little thing.

3. Autohaus Pahnhenrich Renault Alpine ? Binge!
9. Esquiss Auto 406 Coupe Sérénia I'm impressed, correct!
24. Is the 1.5L V6 TAG Turbo Formula 1 Engine Porsche 911? Not Sure Nope, definitely not.

Hmmmm....it can't work like that.
If we keep updating our replies how can we know who get it first?
When I found #17, there wasn't but now there is!
I'm sure we found in the same time but now, who knows?
