    K, after a little bit of research (not cheating though), all I have left is 24, 17, and 12. I thought 24 was a Caterham, but I guess it's not. With 12 / 17 I'm clueless.

    I'll post the answers I have so far in white text, highlight for spoiler.

    1. Volkswagen Beetle
    2. Lotus Elise
    3. Subaru Impreza
    4. Ford Focus
    5. Ford Escort
    6. Mini Cooper
    7. Porsche 914 [required a bit of research]
    8. Lamborghini Murcielago
    9. Ford GT40
    10. McLaren F1
    11. Pagani Zonda
    12. Morris Minor
    13. Mercedes SLR
    14. Rolls-Royce Phantom
    15. Citroen Saxo [required a bit of research]
    16. Ferrari Testarossa
    17. Austin Mini [that took A LOT of research]
    18. Jaguar E-type
    19. Porsche Cayman
    20. Ferrari Enzo
    21. Lancia Delta Integrale [required a bit of research]
    22. Volkswagen Golf
    23. Ferrari F40
    24. Citroen 2-CV [required a bit of research/luck]
    25. Renault 5Turbo


    EDITS: Figured out 17 w/ A LOT of research. Now I need 12... and I'm stuck like quicksand. Finally! Got 17. I figured it was British so I looked up British marques, and Morris was one of them. Then it was just a matter of scrolling through their models.

    I got 45/50 before I gave in and looked at Rockefella's answers.
    Missing: 12, 15 model, and 24

    I just got 12!! More of a lucky guess than anything else, but I still got it.

    38/50, at my present level of knowledge thats the best I can do.

    haha, the only reason I knew 12 was because my grandfather had one of those.

    Oh great, they won't take Renault 5, Maxi, Turbo, 5 Maxiturbo for an answer. Got the Austin Mini by looking at that chrome trim, figured the wheel was small enough. Lancia Delta Integrale was the same situation as Renault, it won't take Delta or Integrale unless you put them together. After a bit of thinking, I remember that 2-tone color of the Citroen. All I really didn't get was the Morris.
