For the younger members, the red sports race is an Elva, but it could equally have been a FORD, AUDI, SEAT, OR FIAT, it would still give the same CLUE.

All-for-one, as they say.

To sign off n 2021 Picture Parade, the marques represented are

MG
BMW
Elva
Riley
Morgan
Reliant

trouble is, I can't re,member what the answer is, I was hoping 356 knew what is was.

Old age is taking it's toll nurse!

The doctor rang me today, said he had some good news and some bad news. I asked him what was the good news, he said; You've got three days to live. I was shocked and asked what could be worse than that. He said I should have rang you yesterday.


See ya!

On the basis that you've got names of 2 - 7 letters long, I reckon the answer should be Borgward.....and I'm sure you must have pictured one somewhere

With regard to the puzzle above, I offer some assistance, as I have recieived 'nul' replies.

The task is to fined 17 letters of the alphabet, and arrange them in order to spell the answers to the question. The hard part is finding the letters in the first place. Yeah Right!

The New Year is not starting off to well.

Well, after a little inspiration (OK, a blatant clue) I have submitted my answers to the examining body and await their reply.
It may not be the right answer, but it is an answer.
(The answer to question 1 was almost a saga...)

A somewhat less than perfect answer from our resident Twerp, managed to get four correct, and a idiotic blunder on the fifth.

So I won't embarrass the poor chap by naming him/

Correct answers from Viv, LTC and (yes I know - un-believable) 356.

Impeccable spelling, and a good grasp of English. A credit to Tenths Historic forum.

Well done lads.

Is it that they are all racing at Silverstone, or is the odd one out the Darrian as it's the only one negotiating a left hand bend?

(I think that's the same number of words as the real answer as well!)

Each car depicted carries two or three letter logos as part of their sponsorship brand. If you write all of the letters down, there just enough to provide the answers'

Hegehog = Sonic
Joke = Gag
Hut = Shed
Tin =Can
Airline = BA.

Better luck next time.
