In this day and age when cars can hit the breaks for you, you can surf the internet on the move and fuel can be anything from hydrogen to vegetable oil, isn't it nice when a manufacturer just keeps things simple?

With its massive engine driving through the rear wheels the HSV Clubsport has always been about offering big performance without the massive price tag.

20 years ago the Lotus Carlton was faster than a Ferrari, while still having room for the family. Two decades on does the Lotus Carlton still have the power to shock?

HSV Clubsport 1996:

Engine Type V8, 5.0L
Fuel Type Unleaded Petrol
Fuel Efficiency 16.0L/100km (combined)
Seating 5
Price From $10,890 - $14,850
