Has anybody heard of a Carlton Carrera??? (I think I've spelt it right) If you have can you find any pictures of them. I've tried googling but with no success.

Try

Picture of a red one, about 6th or 7th in list on left hand side.

I've got to admit that, without knowing anything else about it, I quite like that.

when i was a younger version of myself , that was the car lots of us aspired to . Well if you liked kits you did - ive seen a few on ebay - and one day i shall have one , and il re mold the bugger and start selling em to you lot !!!

Cheers for that Adam. Most helpful

these are nice, off the pistonhead link:

They're CC cyclones
What's that got to do with the price of fish?

Or Carlton Carreras for that mater?

Or are you being "mysterious"

There's a lot of it about.

BTW todays trivia.......

Carlton kits were made in the next industrial unit from where AGM produce the WLR.. they're still doing GRP but don't still have the moulds - I asked as I had both a Carrera (with a rover V8) and a Carlton Commander, which was a Cortina based "jeep" style pick-up.

Useless knowledge - we got it!

Errr, they are CC Cyclones.
Just being pedantic.
