For my 200th puzzle I thought I'd try something different - a group puzzle to brighten up your dark winter evenings (except if you are in the southern hemisphere of course!)

You will find 15 female racing drivers (all post WWII) and 15 racing cars - some are easy and some more difficult.

What is required is to match the driver with the appropriate car they have driven at some point in their careers.

The full name of the driver and the matching car will gain you a point (no points are awarded for just guessing a driver or car without tying them together - it would also give other puzzlers an advantage).

Points will be awarded on completion of this puzzle.
If this is successful I'll do another when this one is solved.

The best solution for this puzzle is to put it straight into the top level - Rookies, Experts & Pros can all have a go (even the tea lady in the AutoPuzzles admins' office!  ;))

That's correct - but you have to match her up with a car to gain a point

It's a Ford Capri if my source is correct, but I'll give you the point as you pointed out it was a Capri

Looks like a Paul Jaray/Aaron65 puzzle so far!
Anyway still five to go so still some points up for grabs (part 2 may be more difficult)
