Correct! It's been a while, but SeaLion drops back in just when I am about to catch him. Well, well - just 102 puzzles to go, and I'm there :)

Does anybody else have any info at all (or pictures) about this? It is called the Mazda E-GO, was built in 1991 and features the familiar twin-chamber 1308 cc Wankel engine from the RX-7 of that time. It was said to weigh around 550 kg, and its 140 hp made it reach 100 kph in about five seconds. This picture, as far as I can remember, came from Norwegian Bil magazine - I don't have that magazine anymore, and I can't find anything about the car at all on the Web, which is quite unusual for a concept car built as recently as '91.

Sorry, I was occupied with rehearsals, May the 4th I sung in the St. Peter Cathedral in Rome. But as you said, now I'm back with the autopuzzles.

About the E-Go, I may have the Bil magazine somewhere in my archive room ...
