Description:
This is a 1974 Lepus Octans, this specific one was run in the Finnish rally in 1974, before being sent over to my father a few weeks after. He mostly used it for, uh, local rallies and such, and has been very well taken care of. I inherited this car in 1988, and have used it for rallies in Norway, Sweden, Germany, Denmark, Finland, and Poland. Sadly I didn’t win anything, but we’ve finally decided that now is the time to move on from the Octans, and on to something more. We’ll be willing to ship anywhere in Europe or to the US. Just flick us a message here, and we’ll begin talks, Thanks!

Rare Gem of the Orient for sale.


Asking Price: 168,216 Yen (Approx. $1,500 US)
Year: 1981
Make: Sosumi
Model: Tanto
Trim: I201
Odometer: 149,622 kilometers
Body Type: 2 door hatchback
Color: Olive
Engine: 1.4L inline 4 OHV 1bbl
Transmission: 4 speed manual
Drivetrain: FF
Seats: 4
Doors: 3
Fuel Economy: 13.78 km/l
Location: Osaka, Japan
Description: You are looking at a rare 1981 Sosumi Tanto, originally conceived as a joint venture between Sosumi Motors and Petoskey Motor Corporation. The rarity of these cars was augmented in 1985 when the cars were revealed to have actually been illegally imported into Japan from the United States rather than being produced domestically. Despite the difficulty, this car has been meticulously maintained making use of parts ordered and shipped in from the United States as few service outlets in Japan carry the necessary parts. While numerous Petoskey Ace subcompacts are still on the road today, there are very few Sosumi Tantos on the road due to rare access to parts and the fact that most have been seized by the government. The car itself is a small, capable hatchback which enjoys good fuel efficiency and reliability. General repair and maintenance costs are on the low side with the exception of import fees. Don’t miss out on your chance to own a rare and obscure piece of automotive history.



Story of the Sosumi Tanto and it’s controversial nature can be found on the Petoskey Motors page.

Price: 89,999.99 USD
Year: 1996
Make: Riesling
Model: Fastback
Trim: AWD
Kilometres/Mileage: 60,000 miles
Body Type: Coupe
Transmission: 6-speed manual single clutch
Colour: Pearl
Drivetrain: All Wheel Drive
No. of Seats: 2 seats
Engine Type: Twin Turbo 8.9 litre V12
Location: Kessler, Dallas, TX, USA

The Riesling Fastback was an extremely powerful coupe with the guts to intrigue Chuck Norris and the looks to impress Chuck Norris. In fact, this was a car once owned by Chuck Norris, until it broke down after a joyride.

This particular Fastback was dailied by a rich business owner who was looking to turn heads with his car and the noise it made. Now, it is under the ownership of a collector in Kessler.
It was not driven to its 214 mph, 3.2-second limit, unlike Chuck’s, so it only needed occasional servicing like any other car, even with 60,000 miles in the books.

This amazingly fast snippet of history could be yours for the low, low price of 89,999.99 US dollars. At its debut, the 1996 Fastback was sold at 200,000 USD, which, in today’s money, is over 300,000 US dollars!
What a bargain!

Make: Sundets Bilar
Model: S-PB
Trim: 311 V8
Kilometres/Mileage: 20 000 miles
Body Type: Coupe
Transmission: 2-speed “A-VXL” automatic
Colour: Black
Drivetrain: RWD
No. of Seats: 4 seats
Engine Type: 5.1L twin carb V8.
Location: Gothenburg, Sweden.

A pristine condition 1955 S-PB 311 by Sundets Bilar. Has the horrid A-VXL two speed automatic (RARE!!) and interior is pristine. Base model with no radio and no power steering. Purchased for 11000 USD (today’s money) back in 1956 by my grandfather. He says he drove it only for a while and then stored it in his garage because he hated the horrible and slow 2-speed automatic and he hated driving it during the summer because it lacked ventilation.

Selling for 30 000 USD. S-PB 311 with the A-VXL two speed is very rare!! Only a few were sold. All original parts, everything in working condition. 265HP V8. Should reach around 9 US MPG / 11 UK MPG on average.

Selling a very rare RHD FATI.

Price: £1,200
Year: 1972
Make: FATI
Model: 750
Trim: Standard
Kilometers/Mileage: 71,000km
Body Type: 2-door Hatchback.
Transmission: 3 speed manual
Colour: Red
Drivetrain: FWD
No. of Seats: 4
Engine Type: 750cc 3 cylinder 27.8hp
Location: Derbyshire, UK.

I’m selling an automotive icon. 1972 FATI. First year of production, Italian made. This is not a later Polish one. This example was originally sold here, and thus is a very rare Right Hand Driven model.

I’ve purchased this car three years ago from a guy in academic career. Probably a professor of Socialist Ideology or something. He owned the thing for 20 years.

I’ve done a few things to it. 750cc engine has been rebuilt. The electronics have been done, so it’s working brilliantly. This is very economical with a new carb. It’s indicating 71,000km but it is 5 digits odometer. Standard equipment includes windows that open, 4 wheels, indicators that do left and right, and most crucially, Italian made heater, which basically says it doesn’t work.

These thing rips tarmac, man. 0-62mph in 27 seconds. Top speed is around 72mph. I’ve never done that, obviously. It barely reach 60 in the real world. A famous British writer once said of this type of FATI as “Catastrophically lethargic”. I believe these were the cheapest car available in 1972.

Would be suitable for any collectors out there.
