I had to cheat. I've heard of it, anyway
 
I kind of like the Hindustan Ambassador. It's a real "retro" car.

Did you figure out the full name of the vehicle?
 
The Hindustan Ambassador is pretty cool to look at, however it's noisy as hell and the shifter makes an annoying vibrating noise. It'd be pretty neat if you could get an Ambassador with a V8 and RWD!

It's a Manhindra something. I've seen the name in UK car magazines.
 
I am sure the Aussies could do a good number on that Ambassador. Muscle cars are alive...somewhere

The blue SUV in #2061 is a Mahindra Scorpio.
 
It's pitiful, this SUV is roughly the size of a Kia Sorento, yet it's engine puts out only 110hp. Put a better engine in, and this SUV looks good.

Something Indian, based on the prehistoric Chevy Sprint/Suzuki something or other IIRC

The car is Indian, and it's quite popular mainly due to it's low price (CAD$5500) My uncle has one, and it sure is prehistoric. Any guesses?
 
It's been pretty quiet around here lately. Where's everyone else who used to post on this thread? andys120? boomchek? kyfdx?

Should be good for a challenge. I believe it's from a vintage Mille Miglia pic:

I have been away for a couple of days but I'm baaack. That grillework doesn't say Alfa to me Jason, no wonder your Alfa guys didn't get it. It looks more like a Maserati but the grille should have more horizontal pieces. I'll check some sources for obscure Italian makes.
 
P.S.- It's unlikely to be a Mille Miglia participant, I see a whitewall on the right front.
