And here it is; correctly named by Cardle for a change.

I am, foolishly perhaps, still typing my answers. I got the make in 3 for this one, but I failed on the model. I can't help feeling that if Cardle was working properly, then getting it wrong with guesses 4 and 5 would probably have been enough to steer me in a different direction. I'm not saying I'd have definitely got it right, but when you guess at TR3 and TR3A currently, you get 'Sorry, wrong answer' but can easily convince yourself that you are factually correct, and it's only saying you're wrong because Cardle is still broken. If you see what I mean.

Anyway. Thursday's car in 3.
I had nothing useful to go on from crop 1, went with a more niche manufacturer in crop 2, and got it quite easily in crop 3. To the point where I stopped guessing after that.

Look on the bright side - that probably means you are considerably younger than most of us on here.

[WPA]

One but make only

[son-of-alf]

DBTA one. Make, model no. & designer.
Had one as "company car" at the first dealership I worked for.

[CanAm]

It's a bit weird when you think that today's car was introduced in 1958, yet they were still making the Morris Minor until 1971.

[LuS1fer]

As my first car, in revised form, it was an instant one (though obviously Cardle didn't accept it).

Though technically it is an Austin A40 Farina. Mine was the Mk 2 which was a brilliant car

[tonycordon]

1st attempt, Correct make and model, Computer says no. 2nd attempt, just make..bingo! But revealed make and model exactly as my 1st attempt...

You can "unconvince" yourself by looking at the source picture.

So massively younger than most of us then!

OMG, I was born before the Morris was introduced and you were born after production ceased

Even weirder to think that the van version of the Cardle car’s predecessor outlived the Cardle car.

[CanAm]

Today's car (with wing mirrors AND door mirrors!)

[Super Sonic]

Two, I put the make first but no, only the first word of the make is 'cardle correct'

[EmmaJNation]

Friday’s car: make in 1 obvs, model in 2

Same for me.

[Dan_H]

In two for me today.

[CanAm]

Make and model in a DBTA 1, though I had an extra letter on the end. Cardle, or at least its algorithm, certainly believes in keeping it simple (most of the time).

The make and model was a fairly easy one today I thought, but I have never heard of the 3.2 litre AMG version and thought it was a 2.5-16

[Puddenchucker]

Make & Model in one.
(The clue helped)
