The tantalising clip of the forthcoming Ron Howard movie Rush has been doing the rounds on all kinds of motoring blogs lately. It looks like a massive CGI-a-thon but we’re still excited, especially as the clip shows the true star of the film: Niki Lauda’s road car of choice. Did you spot it? To be honest if the rest of Rush is lousy it’ll be a hit with us because of this truly inspired piece of car casting.
So all you have to do is send us a comment with the make and model of Niki’s car and we will pick one lucky winner who’ll receive a copy of a rare, out of print book: La Collection – Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider.
Alfa Romeo Giulietta Book
Lancia 2000 Berlina!
Our winner!
Well done Ramon on being the first to identify the Lancia – book on its way
Wow, you only see it for like a second! Is it an Alfa Giulia sedan – hence the Alfa book giveaway?
Thanks for entering Samuel, but you’re not right I’m afraid.
I’m not sure if these were the driver’s cars or not, but I am pretty stoked to see two first-gen Celicas sitting pretty in there.
Thanks Max. The 2 Celicas are a very good spot but they’re not what ‘ol Niki is driving.
The car is a Lancia 2000.
And I love this website. Love cars with steel wheels. I’ll have to send you a pic of my ’80 Volvo 245 on black painted steelies.
Correct answer – well done. Just got beaten to punch by Ramon I’m afraid.
Looks like a Lancia 2000; really cool:) Really love blacksteelies.com by the way!
Thank you Brian. And well done for spotting the brief glimpse of the Lancia.
Lancia 2000 🙂
Correct MCB – well done, but you pipped to the post.
Not an Alfa 😉
Correct Martin, not an Alfa!
