It's a fantastic source of info and so many wonderful (almost) unknown cars.
But for someone who knows the source it makes for puzzles that are really too easy..
I have a couple more to post then after that I think I'll desist and look for something a bit harder..!

I would go so far as to say that after AutoPuzzles it's my favourite site on the Internet..
