Is it a sportscar? Is it a coupe? Is it a GT?
Or is it a wagon?
Well, it looks like a sportscar. It looks like a coupe. It looks like a GT also. And it sure looks like a wagon, too. At least some of them.
Wikipedia says a Shooting-brake is "a three-door car body style with a squared-off rear. They generally have a rear liftgate like a wagon or a hatchback although one or a pair of side-hinged doors is also sometimes seen.
The term originated with custom built 2-door luxury estate cars altered for use by hunters and other sportsmen such as golfers, riders, and polo players requiring easy access to larger storage areas than offered by the typical automobile boot."Now that we know that the shooting brake is basically a two-door wagon dressed up in a GT suit or crossover of a high performance sportscar and a wagon, lets have a look at some the most iconic and most beautiful legendary shooting brakes of all-time.
