Forget my old crappy Topic! Here’s a better one 
I will post more (better) cars on this page (I think)
The car brands under Halfix Motor Corporation:
-Halfix, a European car brand
-Valcon, an American car brand
-Rizzotto, a Italian sport-ish luxury car brand
It’s time for a classic car! 
[size=150]The 1975 Halfix Bertone 2600 Injection[/size]
The car was introduced at the 1974 Earls Court Motor Show, to show what Halfix could do with technology and styling.
It was powerful with the all new 2.6L fuel injected V6 engine, producing 160 HP. It was fast too, standard with an 5-speed manual gearbox, a 0-60 MPH time of just 8.1 sec. and a topspeed of 136 MPH. And the fuel economy wasn’t bad either, just 20.7 MPG. Cornering wasn’t a problem with an all-independent suspension system. Also available was a 2.3L twin carb V6, producing 130 HP. And for the people who don’t want to shift gears by themselves, there was a 3-speed automatic available.

The styling was done by Bertone, and the finishing touch by our Design Department. This car was reckoned to be the a success, but sadly it wasn’t…
The first series were littered with engine problems, after just 5000 miles the timing belt snapped and the fuel injection system wasn’t very good either. The engine problems were solved quickly, but after 2 years the car rusted very badly. But the worst thing about the car was the price. Because this car was rather expensive to develop, the car got a huge selling price of £2,850 for the 2.3L V6. (£93,770 or €130.924 in 2015)
After 6 years the production stopped and just 21.489 cars were made. Nowadays the value of the car is high, really good example’s are sold for more than €120.000.

Nice car! Can you show us the specs? Because I’d really love to know how you got fuel injection to work so well and remain so cheap in the 1970s.
he did say it was a problem (guessing he estimated the miles) so i’m going to say quality slider

Hi there. Is that Partario’s '70s coupe that you used to make this model?
Yes I did

Exactly

[size=150]The '95 Halfix Samurai[/size]
Introduced at the 1995 Geneva Motor Show the Samurai was a small sporty FWD hatchback, only with 4 cylinders available. The engine choices were a 1.6 with 105 hp, a 1.8 with 130 hp, a 2.0 with 160 hp and a 2.0 turbo with 200 hp and all engines had 5 valves per cylinder. The gearbox choice was simple: 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic. Safety wasn’t a problem with standard an all-independent suspension system and power steering, ABS and traction control. Electronic stability was only available with the 2.0 turbo.

The main focus of the car was a light body, sporty handling, comfort and good fuel economy. Well, it did have all those things! The car weighs only 1050 kg for the 1.6 to 1138 KG for the 2.0 turbo and does more than 35 MPG! It wasn’t expensive either, just £12,010 for the 1.6 (£18,550 or €25.900 in 2015).
i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag105/willempjuh/hs1_zpsltsltxtm.png
The car was a good success, more than 538.392 cars were produced between 1995 and 2001. The body did not have any rust issues and the engines were reliable. The only thing about the car that a lot of cars were ‘‘riced’’, so the original cars are becoming more rare…
[size=150]The 1980 Rizzotto Grande Vista[/size]
The Rizzotto Grande Vista was introduced in 1980, and was the flagship saloon car of the Italian brand Rizzotto.
The Rizzotto Company was already taken over by Halfix in 1962.
The car was designed to be a GT-ish saloon car and featured a modern suspension setup, like Double Wishbone’s in the front and Multilink on the rear and it had a clever self-leveling Hydropneumatic suspension system. It was certainly a nice place to sit inside, with an ultra luxurious handmade interior and a great audio system. The car had 2 options on the list: a 4.8L 32V V8 with a 4-barrel Carburetor (HP: 265) or the more rare 5.4L 32V V8 with fuel-injection (HP: 290).
The car was able to get from 0-100 km/h in just 7.3 sec. and reached more than 235 km/h.
All cars were standard equipped with a smooth 4-speed automatic gearbox, geared LSD, power steering and ABS. The main competitors were: Aston Martin Lagonda, Maserati Quattroporte Mk.III, De Tomaso Deauville and the Ferrari 400.
And ofcourse there were some problems with it: it had a massive drinking problem (19.89L/100km or 14.2 UK-MPG), it was very expensive to maintain and it wasn’t very reliable…
The car was being made from 1980 to 1987 and there were just 743 examples made (107 with the 5.4L engine). The car is nowadays a good investment, with some good examples selling over €90.000!
I like your cars.
Thanks Felgen 
[size=150]The 1994 Halfix Veloce[/size]
The Veloce was introduced in 1994, and was meant to compete with supercars like: Bugatti EB110, Ferrari F50, Lamborghini Diablo and many more…
The car was completely made out of carbon fibre, and was equipped with double wishbone suspension front and rear. Because it was made out of carbon, the car just weighs 1240 kg!
i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag105/willempjuh/Halfix%20Veloce%20-%20GTO-1_zpsdzzjnboq.png
The engine was a 4.5L Twin-Turbo 32V FP V8 engine. AWD was added for extra grip and safeness. All cars had a 5-speed manual gearbox.
You could choose a few trim options:
i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag105/willempjuh/Halfix%20Veloce%20-%20GTO-2_zps8fqx1ftu.png
The performance was very good. It was good off the startline and handled great in the corners, because it had AWD.
Some Stats (GTO version):
i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag105/willempjuh/Halfix%20Veloce%20-%20GTO-3_zpswrr10pfo.png
And ofcourse: it was expensive to maintain, and expensive to buy. But the reliability was great for a vulnerable 90’s supercar.
The car was produced between 1994 and 1995, and 1.456 examples were made, with the GTO the most rare.
(The photo’s shows the GTO version, with the big spoiler and at the rear more vents)
[size=150]The 1960 Valcon DeClasse[/size]
Introduced at the Valco-Rama motorshow in November 1959, the DeClasse was the flagship sedan for Valcon in the early 60’s.
The engine was still the same (but modernised) Valcon Fuel-Jet 366ci V8 engine used in some 50’s Valcon’s. New was the Gear-o-Matic automatic transmission. People criticised the new transmission, because it was only a 2-speed unit, rather than a 3 or 4 speed transmissions other manufacturers used in that time.
i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag105/willempjuh/Valcon%20DeClasse%20-%20Brougham-2_zpsek9mkfin.png
The interior was very luxurious with a lot of chrome, power seats, power windows, FM/AM radio and many more things. The styling was ofcourse very 60’s with small tail fins and again: a lot of chrome. Under the bonnet/hood laid a large V8 engine with 300 HP and 598 Nm-Torque. With the not very sophisticated 2-speed automatic, the 2-tonne car could launch itself from 0-60 mph in less than 11 seconds. A 3-speed automatic was introduced in 1965, also with a larger 6.5L 330 HP V8 engine.

i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag105/willempjuh/Valcon%20DeClasse%20-%20Brougham-3_zps2ywn6xyi.png
It was produced between 1960 and 1967, with some facelifts in between. Almost 100.000 examples were made. The car itself was pretty rust proof, so quite a lot of cars survived the rust devil. Some fine, low-mileage examples already sell for more than $60.000.
