Solved: Bro gozh ma zadoù
« on: August 22, 2012, 07:16:12 AM »
Well, my "Cold As Ice" group puzzle seems not to be very popular. Perhaps it is the wrong time for such a chilly puzzle, may be my connections are too obscure, I don't know. Nevertheless here is another group puzzle. It is more of a classic "Cars and Places" puzzle. I spent many of my past vacations in Brittany, so I tried a puzzle around that theme. You will find below 10 cars (c'harr-tan in Breton) and 10 places in Brittany (Breizh in Breton).
You just have to find the connection.  ;D

Points will be awarded when all pairs are found.

The cars:

Right car, right pairing. What do you mean with "Grault"?

C'harr-tan 8 is a Georges Irat, but it doesn't match with Breizh 10. If you try to find out more about this car, you may find a connection.

Nice idea, but Breizh 2 is not the Allée couverte at Bignan. But I think it won't take you long now to find the right picture connected to Bignan.

How about Breizh 6, de la ville de Bignan?

Probably because the town of Marathon isn't placed in Brittany.  :D
The full name of the car may help you along.

Car 9: Antoine Loheac plastic truck:


though he is from Rouen, Loheac is also a city in brittany...

Loheac (manoir de l'automobile) must be Breizh 5...

City which also host a SIOP marathon Corsaire:



Corsaire... then it must be Saint Malo... (but let qwaszx find the picture... I would have never find the SIOP...)

Yes, c'harr-tan 9 and Breizh 5 are a pair. Loheac transport were building their own trucks. In order to reduce weight they used plastic cabs.
Lohéac also is the village where the Manoir de l'automobile museum is located. There you can find the last surviving SIOP Marathon. Also the Hommell sports cars were built in Lohéac.
