Allan L No 65 :solved by aa and Red Baron
« on: November 22, 2009, 09:45:50 AM »
A group puzzle, if I can manage it.
A point for each make suitably identified.
There is a connection which will be obvious and will help, once it's found.

Well, I see the common thread is that the cars' names are all three-letter acronyms. Did you get this idea from my puzzle with the cars having two-letter acronym names? (It would be quite the honor to know I could actually influence other puzzlers around here!)

Yes of course I pinched your idea! 8)
Who's next, and will it be two-letter or four-letter cars? ;D
