Go on, then, what lurks beneath?

[DickyC]

Doh! Too easy, eh? Which particklear Maserati?

[DickyC]

I know because the car cover had a tax disc peep hole and I looked it up on TfL.

[DickyC]

Correct: "MASERATI GRANTURISMO S" came back from TfL.

This quiz setting is harder than I thought.

Really? I mean, really?

You didn't appreciate my attempt to divert attention away from my lack of Maserati knowledge, I take it?

My apologies.

Although I try to operate on a slightly higher plane, I work in an office where flatulence is often presented as humour.

Although your reply looks a little try hard

Why, I'll have you know I scraped a pass at English 'O' level at the third attempt.

Can we guess where too?

Soho square.

It isn't, but I can see what you mean.

[DickyC]

And something dreadful emerging from under the bonnet.

We could always make them more difficult.

Answer tonight - if needed.

[DickyC]

Hmm. I see the competition will have to become a lot harder. But in the meantime...

Correct.



But, y'know, Germans with vanity plates? Doesn't that signify the end of civilisation as we know it? I mean they're normally so serious about things.

Can't you even pretend they're difficult?

For me?

Panther Rio

Wow. I'm very impressed.

They were rare but I used to see one quite often when they were new in the seventies. Saw a six wheel Panther on the M4 once, too! Can you picture it? Like Lady Penelope's Roller. There were only two of those; wittily named the Panther 6.

Clue: two built (maybe with good reason, considering its got a nose like a bottom-feeding fish)

The Owen Sedanca. HR Owen's attempt at car building.

Can someone tell me what this is!

Struggling with this. I wanted to say Elva but I can't find a similar one. It could be home spun.
