Spooky: St Andrews Cross on bonnet

[Wiggyfella]

Not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but a mate of mine pointed out that I had a St Andrews Cross on my Cerbera's bonnet on Sunday morning.

It seems that the heavy frost had covered my car in a layer of white, but not evenly over the bonnet. Because of the way the bonnet is designed, the frost had coated certain parts more than others, giving the appearance of a cross, which (as my car's Imperial Blue) made it look just like a St Andrews Cross, which is nice as I was born in Scotland. Might be because of diagonal strengthening members or something?

Anyone else seen this?

If you have a red Cerb, it'd look like a St George's Cross.

Any other national flags observed?!

Not in the right colours but I think this is what you're talking about. Not so strong in light colours but give an idea!!

ps Wiggyfella,glad to see the car is Imperial Blue.....there is NO other colour that a TVR looks that good in.

Mine's Blue & I always get the cross,

Looking at the engine bay, It's hard to see why the heat does that.

The bonnet has a strenghtening cross. This simply effects the surface temp of the bonnet a little which then starts to melt frost at different rates. I think!

You'll be telling us there's an imprint of the Turin Shroud on the boot next!
