Ram - the Ventora never came as an estate. The estate pictured is a victor estate which came with the ventora engine but victor trim inside. Strange logic but true

Any ideas on what this car is, where is originates and what car it was based on?

That looks like a Lada Samara based car, probably a export version like Baltic for finiland assembled by Valmet Automotive...

I think it’s an early 90s Moskvitch 2141 (popularly called ‘Aleko’) but, as far as I know, it was indeed exported as a Lada (except the name was still ‘Aleko’).

agspins · 11th September 2010, 00:08

Yep DM it is indeed an Aleko

ajmat · 11th September 2010, 10:22

Yep correct - it is an Aleko made by Moskovitch. Their first foray into front wheel drive. The bobdy shell is the old Chrysler alpine / simca 1307. In fact, it was designed for a transverse engine. The russians designed for a front engine longitudanal engine and spent time redesigning the front end for this

Alright, ID:901 is the promised Kelmark GT lookalike that CCC hasn’t been able to crack yet. Let’s see how it fares here:

Its an Alvis TD21 Graber coupe. I think its a Mark 1, going by the fact that the Mk2 incorporated disc brakes, and the wire wheels on this particular car don't look like they can accomodate discs.

AltoHoncho · 13th September 2010, 14:51

@NOS: Going by your logic, It could be a Series II, coz they also had similar wire spoked wheels (optional though). Just that the Series II had twin headlamp arrangement as a part of the front of the bonnet quite like the mulsane (differing in the arrangement of lights though).

Although I would go by your answer as TD21 because of the two small grille arrangement on both sides of the big front grille. Series II perhaps didnt have 'em.

I am sure, since this one has come from Sir Ram, it would be a 'doosra'.

Uhm, hello? Is my recent entry (ID:901) being boycotted for some reason or is everyone simply clueless?
