There's something about a Porsche Singer.............

[Scott.T]

That really appeals........not sure what it is, perhaps it's just the whole retro-package :

Lovely isn't it. A bit like the Eagle speedster.

I was only thinking the other day, someone needs to come up with a factory that can replicate old classics with more modern internals. A bit like they are doing with these and Jensons etc, but with more 'everyday' marques.

Imagine being able to order a new Mk 1 RS2000/Mexico or a new dolly sprint, citreon ds, new WRX STI Type R for that matter. The list is endless. I for one would go that route rather than a new box.

Hmmm...Mk1 RS2000/Mexico with a set of AP's, Recaro CS Interior and an E46 BMW M3 engine with CSL Induction Kit.........Oh Yes........

I was thinking more along the lines of an Austin Princess with a Prius unit in it, but each to there own

I think both Top Gear and 5th Gear did reports/drives with a few cars from Singer, certainly agree there is an appeal for a modern take on a classic car. Love the idea of the Dolly Sprint, remember my granddad's one from when I was a kid!

Great car but I'd have an eagle!

I follow them on Instagram just for pics like this.

Definitely one of my lottery cars.

That's awesome.

I'll see your singer and raise it an Eagle low Drag GT.

[Willowsdad]

Another stunning car and I'd like one of each, but the looks of the singer 911 just edge it for me.

I think I was just sick in my mouth!
That's just trying too hard to be retro and modern at the same time.

I want Singer but there are a few companies in the UK that can do something like this as well - maybe not to the extremes that Singer do, but still.

I can just imagine blasting up the Col Du Turini on a sunny summer evening in a stripped out 964 on throttle bodies....motoring heaven!
