There was also an Austin 3-Litre estate and a Ford Zephyr/Zodiac estate that both also looked factory.
Also the Lynx Eventer (Jag XJ-S) had the "broken-backed" look but seemed to have been smoothed out to near factory appearance too.
I suspect when cars like these are created, if they can't easily make it look factory they go for the "obvious modification" appearance to make it more unique. |
Strangely I thought the Lynx Eventer was a very classy design and one I would have had in a heart beat.I do love the '"lifestyle" sports coupe/estate look - hence having an 1800ES back in the day. I always thought the ES looked better than the coupe and still do.
