What's this, by whom, from when - for 1 point?

That's 2 questions!
One is right and the other wrong; which one do you want to go for?!

I will give you a point anyway since you did identify the car and you would have come back with the right answer.
Since I asked you a specific question and was awaiting your reply it was of course not right of delorean to jump in, although he does seem to have realised what he did.  I also have to give him a point though as only he fully identified the car.

I didn't mean to take your point, Hondast ; like always, I saw the picture and I thought 'I know this car', so I answered ... I missed your answer / question, I didn't mean to jump in! I'm in this for fun, not for the given points ... Thanks for the point anyway, Carnut!
