Solved: Name That Make #7 - Diehlmobile "spare car"
« on: May 08, 2009, 05:20:45 PM »
For this one, name the make AND tell what's special about it. If you can do the former, then you can surely do the latter as well.

(Sorry for the fuzzy quality... could not find better.)

You've got the make name right, but you also need to say what's special about it.

I guess the appropriate thing to say now would be "I'll hold this for you for 48 hours," but I'm not sure what that involves!

That's part of it, but what was the point of its foldability?

OK, that's good enough. It was a "spare car" to be kept in the trunk of a regular car!

And you had better have one of those "Big M" Mercurys to store it.

Larger copy of the puzzle image and one inside the boot.

Supposedly only took 5 minutes to assemble and the only tool required was a 50 cent coin!
