As is tradition, same digit numbers mean a special connection puzzle!

3 different vehicles, all with a common link, all worth 1 point. The link should be relatively simple to work out, so it's first come first served for this one!

Straight to the pros to avoid a wait in line!

It is described more as a touring car, but yes the sliding doors are a major feature.

No.
