I'll accept any of its several names. Comes in diesel (mostly) and petrol (those who got frustrated with poor performance of the standard diesel) versions and UK and USA variants.

Thats the one aussiblue.
I read that De Tomaso was 'consulted' somewhat in the creation of it.

It's an X-100 Mercury Marauder hardtop.
It's weird. As soon as I saw that pic, I thought to myself 'where have I seen that lately' as I was recently reading about various older model Mercury's and Lincoln's and I remember seeing that model. Nice car. Big V8 engine. Sort of reminds me of our Landau.
Of course, I like the Aussie Landau coupe more.

Did you get your photobucket problem fixed stevepet?

Okie dokie. I don't know how quick someone will come up with the answer to this but here it is.



Let me know if anyone would like any clues.
P.S. The front is blurry as I've smudged the plate and badging.

Sorry. It's a real (although rare) current road going car and is Australian.
