|  Strange small car Hi. I am new to this site so; Hello to everyone. This morning on my way to work I passed a small car with a Skoda badge on the front. I havn't seen on before, and was wondering if it was a Skoda. It was silver in colour' although it could have been bare aluminium. Two door sports car type which at first I thought was a Ginetta. It was rounded at the back with a grille where the boot would have been so it could have been rear engined. The exhaust came out of the left rear and the silencer went across the rear towards the right. The rear window was very small and almost upright. It was on the A19 near Sunderland at about 7.00 am. Was I seeing things or does such a car exist? Thanks all, Victor.  |

| Re: Strange small car It was too old and 'roundy' for an X/19. Could possibly be a Lancia, But it definately had a Skoda badge on it Thanks. |
