1. Well

Had a TD, as well as other MGs.

Had a Austin Healy.

Had a MB 190SL.

Had a Fiat Dino with the Ferrari V6

Never heard of a Sykva Phoenix. Looks like a glorified go kart.

Great pics.

3. The Phoenix is pretty much that

It is Sylva. My spelling error.

They are an English kit car.
Chassis and panels. You can order all sorts of parts. Some have Kawa or Yamaha engines. This is from 83. They make kits that are wide bodied for 2 people and they can be street legal.

2. I love all these old cars, my dear Old Crank!

Your phone did very well with all of them.

The first car looks like a car trying to resemble a horse-drawn carriage!

5. You'll have to fight me for it...

Grin. I looked them up and they are around 100K and up. That woudl be a great Sunday cruiser, ja?

The phone wide angle I'm not sure about. The creen says 0.5 from the normal. So 20-24mm equiv from a normal on a 35mm.
ust quessing though. It seems wider than the 18mm on my DX Nikon which would be about 25mm.
