Im not going to ask you how you know of a US rapper called LA BLUE.
Act your age please.

.

I wont mention that there is only one B in La Blue whereas ERA B Type and MG B add up to 2 x Bs.
Oh Dear!, I must have some other celebrity in mind. Yes that's right, Mongolian singing star Lu Babe.

Sorry, Viv don't know what came over me.

The picture is hideous, correct answer. I got BAUBLE but was looking for Boobool and could not find enough letters to make pretentious. Next time for sure!

Good heavens, I did not realise you could make bauble out of the letters.

Warning, attempting this puzzle could damage your Mental Health.

This, I believe is a grade A brain buster, so be careful, and do not try to solve it if you are weak minded or of a delicate constitution.

There six pictures each one representing a letter of the alphabet, however, there may well be several different letters that could apply to an image.
From the selected letters you must spell the name of World Champion. Given that there only six letters, clearly the answer will not be Verstappen or Fittipaldi, so that restricts the number of candidates. I have a particular drive in mind, however, you may find another name. As long as you can give a sensible choice of letters, I will settle for that. I can assure you that there is no trickery, the correct letter will be the first initial one ie Jaguar would give J. I have aimed to ensure that the appropriate 'feature' is prominent not tucked away, you will need imagination, and perception. So good luck.

I note you have an Australian car in there. It must be. Its upside down as we are.

But I sent you an email with an answer that works. If its what you were expecting is irrelevant

Plenty to play with, and RBS has come up with two names, neither the one I have in mind, but equally valid replies. EB, has come up with a typical tortured suggestion, but doubtful intelligence.

Good luck, there is still all to play for.

A simple word quiz for you; Using ONLY the initial (First RBS, EB) letter of each word, can you find a familiar plume?


Gormless.

Well, Grif, it all depends on how old you are or if you know your history. No doubt there are some who can find some obscure connection between the cars but frankly I can only think of one, (as did RBS and SSmith), it not what, but who.

Best of luck,

Baub.
