Back in the early 80’s my friend had a 1975 Vauxhall Firenza, the 2.3 model. At the time it was amazingly quick , beating off XR3i’s etc with no problem. I’ve not seen one before or since, but there must be a few still out there.

Great fun was had in the mid 70's with a Blydenstein tuned ex Dealer Team Vauxhall droop snoot Firenza.
I can't find any pictures but it was a proper beast. Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right.

That ones seen better days... but still an iconic look, like a miniature 1970’s USA muscle car. The more I see it again the more I like it, the droop snoot is a separate in my mind “ marmite” look, but I think the original front end stands the test of time better.

One of the few cars I would buy and keep as a classic.
