Those both sure look like a Tempo and a Merkur to me.

They do however share the same 4x108mm wheel bolt pattern!

Well the rest of the world didn't get a Merkur. In GB, what was known as the Merkur here, they were the Sierra and Sapphire.

That said, if that was a European Merkur, it would be a Sierrra, not a Sapphire. So either way, I am wrong.

But if I was right, it would have been cool. So I have that going for me.

Scratch that too. The Scorpio was other Merkur. So I was incorrect while I was being wrong.

I still say if I was right, it would have been cool.

Is the a "stormy" link between A and L?
I do know A, but don´t know the function of L...

porridgehead · « **Reply #34 on:** September 28, 2007, 03:42:48 PM »

Dunno about L, but I'd say there's stormy involved with Q. It's a Tornado Typhoon.

Well if that counts we can add the Mercury Lynx - same bolt pattern too. (my Seven has 4x108mm which is why I know).

I *think* that's Rock Hudson, from "Giant". So there's a Hudson to be found...

grobmotorix · « **Reply #43 on:** October 10, 2007, 01:00:16 AM »

B goes with Q, I think, as B is the TIV Tornado InterceptVehicle and Q is the british Tornado car.

1 goes with 7 and perhaps with 3, as 1 is the Italdesign Marlin, 7 the AMC Marlin and 3 is a Rolls-Royce Merlin engine

C goes with P,as the shadow C is the name of the Rayton Fissore Shadow P

A goes with 8 as A is a Chevy Monte Carlo and 8 is the Skoda Popular Sport Montecarlo

If this is it, how do you call that one:

My goodness, you guys are racing through these - and finding connections that hadn't even ocurred to me!.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #49 on:** July 08, 2008, 03:49:41 AM »
