Spot the Make and Model of These Well Known Cars Quiz

The Lotus Elise was in production between 1996 and 2021. The car had a fibreglass body, which was attached to an aluminium chassis via special glue. The 1.8 L Rover K-series powered all the Series 1 cars, offering four power output options: 118 bhp (88 kW; 120 PS) and the Sport 190 (190 bhp (142 kW; 193 PS)).

The Series 2 was produced between 2001 and 2011 and was followed by the Series 3, which had a production run between 2011 and 2021. The Elise was named after the Lotus chairman Romano Artioli's granddaughter. In fact, all cars produced by Lotus begin with the letter "E." There was a Lotus Carlton, but primarily it is a version of the Vauxhall Carlton/Opel Omega, a saloon upgraded by Lotus.

Production of the first series Lotus Elan lasted from 1962 to 1975. It was a two-door coupe with a front engine and rear-wheel drive. A 1.6 cc engine replaced the 1.5 cc engine used in the original car a short time later. The backbone tube chassis was made of sturdy tubular steel, while the body was composed of fibreglass.

The 1.6 engine produced 105 horsepower and was based on the Ford Kent Pre-Crossflow four-cylinder 1,498 cc engine with a twin cam head installed. At the time, the 1.6's performance was outstanding, reaching speeds of up to 112 mph and a 0-60 time of about nine seconds. Subsequent models, such as the Sprint DHC, could reach a high speed of 123 mph and go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 6.6 seconds.

The Elan was replaced by the Lotus Elise (for Lotus Elan M100) in 1996.

The Jaguar 420G was in production from 1961 to 1970, although at the time it was called the Jaguar Mark X until 1966, when the name was changed to the Jaguar 420G. At the time, it was the top of the Jaguar range. When the car was first launched, it came with the 3,781 cc (230.7 cu in) engine, but this was enlarged to 4,235 cc (258.4 cu in) in 1964.

The Mk10 was also the first saloon Jaguar to be given independent rear suspension and came with disc brakes all around. Even in those days, this car came with power steering, and you had the option of a manual or an automatic gearbox.

The first E-Type rolled off the production line in Coventry, England, in 1961 and came to an end in 1974. In 1961, the cars were unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show. The powertrain for the E-Type was either a 3.8 or 4.2 litre, with the 5.3 V12 arriving in 1971.

The E-Type had a monocoque body, independent rear suspension, disc brakes, and rack-and-pinion steering, which was state of the art in 1961. Jaguar claimed the E-Type would reach a top speed of
150 miles per hour (240 km/h) and a 0 to 60 in around seven seconds. It was very fast back in the day, and even by today's standard, the figures speak for themselves. Today they are very sought after and can command a very high price.

The Silver Spur is a long-wheelbase version of the Silver Spirit produced between 1980 and 2000. The car was built at the Crew factory in Cheshire, England. The Silver Spur was powered by a 6.75 L Rolls-Royce L410 V8 engine and a GM-sourced THM400 3-speed automatic gearbox.

The MK one was in production between 1980 and 1988. By modifying its hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension with a Girling automatic hydraulic ride height control system and gas-charged shock absorbers, the Spur/Spirit carried on the Silver Shadow's focus on ride quality. The production of the Mark II came out between. 1988 and 1992. Mark III 1992-1995 and MK IV 1995-2000. All the ranges of this model were luxury cars.

The Bentley Turbo R is a high-performance luxury car produced between 1985 and 1997. The assembly was at Crewe, Cheshire, England. The car was related to the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit. The Bentley Turbo R was powered by the 6.75 L turbo Bentley V8 engine.

It is thought the power was just under 300 bhp. In the US, it was priced around $195,000 (£150,000 Sterling UK). If you wondered what the "R" stood for, it was for "road holding." Quite a rare beast, as only 252 cars were produced.

Thirty-seven Ferrari Testarossa's were ordered on the opening day of the 1984 Paris Auto Show, indicating that the car was a huge hit with Ferrari fans. Just over 9,000 Ferrari Testarossa, 512 TR, and F512 M cars were produced, making it one of the most produced models from Ferrari. The car's name means "Redhead.". The Testarossa was designed by a Pininfarina who has also designed cars for the likes of Peugeot, Fiat, and General Motors.

The car was powered by a 4.9L flat-twelve engine, which had an output of 370 PS (272 kW; 365 bhp) and could accelerate 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 5.8 seconds. Gianni Agnelli, the chairman of Fiat, had a one-off Spider (convertible), built in celebration of his 20th year as the chairman. Pininfarina was also commissioned to build seven in-house Spiders for the Sultan of Brunei, as Ferrari refused to build any more other than the one built for the chairman.

The Ferrari 308 GTB and GTS were in production between 1975 and 1985. The car was powered by a 2.9L V8 producing 255 PS (188 kW; 252 bhp). The body of the 308 was made from fibreglass and was the first of this type made by Ferrari. The layout of the engine bay was transverse mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive. The chassis was a tube frame construction with double wishbones, coaxial coil springs, hydraulic dampers, and anti-roll bars on both axles that made up the all-independent suspension. The car was also fitted with disc brakes all around.

The 308 was a lightweight car, only weighing around 1,050 kg (2,315 lb). With the lightweight body, this enabled the car to reach a top speed of 156mph and 0-62mph time in six seconds.

The Lamborghini Gallardo was in production between 2003 and 2013. The first model was powered by a 5L even firing V10 (pre-facelift), followed by the 5.2L odd firing V10 (facelift) model. Power to the road was via four-wheel drive. The basic car had 520 PS (382 kW; 513 hp) at 8,000, while the LP 570-4 had 570 PS (419 kW; 562 hp) at 8,000.

The Gallardo was replaced by the Lamborghini Huracán.

The Lamborghini Huracan first hit the production line in 2013. This replaced the previous V10, the Lamborghini Gallardo. The LP 610-4 is the base model. The power plant was the 5.2-litre naturally aspirated Audi/Lamborghini V10 engine that produced around 449 kW (602 hp; 610 PS).

The top speed from the LP 610-4 was 325 km/h (202 mph) and 0-97 km/h (60 mph), 2.5 seconds, with the 1/4 mile coming up in 10.4 seconds at 217 km/h (135 mph). It has been said the Lamborghini Huracan STJ will be the final-limited edition of this super car.
