Unusually, for me, I actually picked up on the seat clue by myself. Usually I miss all but the most obvious clues "hidden" on the interiors of Cardle's crops.

And for sunday, make in three, didn't get the model.
Just another modern coupe...
As they say in its birthplace, "Same Sausage, different lengths"Just another modern coupe...
There's two clues in crop 1, so which one are people seeing?
1. If you follow the bear you will see a little 'Knick'
2. There's a logo which I can barely make out, even when I now know what it says.

I am amazed at a lot of people here today...and not in a good way!
We all know how Cardle works because we have been playing it for years!
We know you always study the first crop to see if there are any clues that can be easier seen by zooming in.
I remember having a discussion a while ago with people who were saying a name could easily be read when zooming in, while I disagreed and said it couldn't.
Today the clue can be easily read when zooming on both phone and PC, but it is not simply a 'logo' you are looking at, it is the actual model name!
It baffles me that somebody said they guessed the make from the clue but have no idea of the model.
With the vast knowledge that people here have together with the experience of playing Cardle, I think it is completely inexcusable to not spot the model name in the first crop.

Maybe for some people the crop 1 clue was the famous Knick? I spotted the other clue in crop 1 but it wasn't clear enough for me to make out anything legible that looked like a car model that I'd actually heard of. It looked like 3 letters to me.>

It was a half hearted attempt as the appeal of Cardle has waned with me. My first crop was a front wong, bonnet shutline. I saw the rear side glass trailing edge, but it didn't mean much to me. My second crop was a bit of a front lamp assembly, front wing and bonnet. I guessed Make only as Cardle now seems to accept that sometimes and my days of being bothered and taking Cardle seriously have passed. I got Wordle in four today.<snip>

I have no idea what you are talking about. What is the famous Knick?
.
What is hard about reading M2?
Well it's hard for me because I have a partially detached retina, there is a squiggle in front of the name, and I've never heard of this model. If I had, it may have been a bit more obvious
You have to bear in mind that the PH membership covers a wide rage of ages, skills, abilities, knowledge and areas of interest. There has even been the odd time when people (sometimes even me!) have got an answer in 1 that has left you baffled. They weren't all cheating!
Someone once queried my answer naming a manfacturer from the name on an owners club badge on the grounds that it wasn't legible. I agreed that it wasn't, but it was clearly 8 letters long and obviously wasn't Wolseley, which didn't leave much to chose from.

The famous Hofmeister Kink which has featured on virtually all cars of this make for over 50 years and is clearly visible from the inside of the rear window.

I have never heard of this 'Hofmeister' wotsit...I simply read the model name in the photo. Well it's hard for me because I have a partially detached retina, there is a squiggle in front of the name, and I've never heard of this model. If I had, it may have been a bit more obvious
Come on...are you really saying you have never heard of an M2 model of BMW?
The M models are one of the most famous and well known series of performance models in motoring.
Regarding zooming in and reading something...you are one of the people I disagreed with in a much earlier cardle where you said a name was easily readable.
I think we are just going to have to agree to disagree today, but I am still genuinely amazed and baffled..
