There are few cars that can pull off the 3-spoke look, but the best in the business has to be the Saab 900, where it's part of the DNA. This is the first 900 Aero T16S we've added to the register, spotted for sale on Gumtree Australia asking $8,950 (AUD). The styling of the 900 is so iconic, particularly in 'Aero' form. The looks and the turbo performance make a great modern classic, and we really expect these top spec 900s to start climbing in price in the not so distant future. In the meantime...

The example was treated to a restoration some 25 – 30 years ago, where it underwent a engine and transmission rebuild, and exterior repaint in the original colour, having rarely been driven since the car remained in a climate controlled garaged for some 19 years by its previous owner. The car remains in wonderful condition. Some would say a time capsule car… It has most of its rare original accessories including: Original dash and instrumentation is all in great shape Fantastic steering wheel...

Supposedly the first of the SS cars built bu Bullet Australia, and the seller suggests it was custom hand built for a Bullet founder and Director and was a first off the production line at the new Bullet Factory. These are fitted with the quad cam 4.0lt V8, producing an insane amount of power for a very small car. Based on the MX5 - but far from it - these cars have been extensively modified with space frame chassis and modified carbon composite body panels, and were the first low production...

This 1972 build Interceptor looks to be a complete and relatively original car, but has unfortunately suffered the effects of the weather after supposedly being found in a Californian backyard. See it here on Kurt Tanner Motor Cars in the USA, asking $15,750 (USD). Although there's a lot of work in bringing it back to its former glory, we don't consider this a bad price for what seems to be such an original car, and in our opinion the Interceptor remains one of the most under-valued classics...

Considered by many to be the grandfather of the modern 'city car' concept, the Fiat 500 took diminutive style and flair to previously unseen heights. The 'cinquecento' received its name from the tiny, rear-mounted 479cc 'flat-twin' that was used to power the initial versions introduced in 1957. Its initial design was to allow 4 seater transport for the impoverished Italian masses as they continued to rebuild from the end of the second world war. The 'D' version of the charismatic Fiat 500 was...

This car claims to be on of the first Supercharged V8 Bullet cars, however, we're a bit confused as on the Bullet website, the first pre-production cars were supposedly produced from 2000 - 2002, and prior to that, had a Rover V8 engine. Anyhow, looking at the images, the car appears to be the real deal, with the full Supercharged Lexus V8. Perhaps they just got the date wrong. With a shortage of Rover V8 engines to fulfil orders, the decision was made to change to the Toyota 1UZFE 4.0 litre V8...

Here's something a little out of the ordinary, advertised for a while now on Carsales for $69,000 (AUD). The Bullet company used the legendary Mazda MX5 as the base for its high performance Roadster SS, being the first low production Aussie built sports car to achieve full Australian Design Rules compliance. Despite retaining a relatively close resemblance to the underlying MX5 from a distance, its modifications are extensive. A tubular chassis, re-manufactured and tuned Supercharged Lexus 4.0l...

This vehicle has recently had a mechanical overhaul with a new timing chain, reconditioned gearbox, new tyres and a few new minor adjustments. These are becoming more rare and finding one in good mechanical working order is very hard especially in Australia where they are less prominent. This particular example is currently for sale for $5200 AUD (with the reserve price not met on ebay). This Mk2 Sprite has 94,000kms on the clock and (as seen by the photos) a very clean straight body. Some body...

This exceptionally original 1977 Mini LS (998cc) is offered for sale in Victoria, Australia (originally advertised through Facebook). In its original Iridium green, the car has only 125,000 km on the clock with books to prove it. We've not seen such an original and perfect 998 LS like this for a while, so this represents a fairly unique opportunity. The seller confirms there is no rust, and no oil leaks.
