Turner ?

Yes it is, so I'll give you a 24 hour lock to see if you can find all the details.

That's it, yes.
It's actually the same car as in this puzzle but at an earlier stage in its life:

http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=10653.0

I think I've got a couple more pictures of it showing it with the same registration which I'll dig out and post later.


By the way, I note you only have 16 points again! I made you an Expert once when you got all those points in the Tuning quiz.  What happened to those?  With only 16 points you should be a Rookie again and be able to answer Rookie puzzles.  Who took them away from you?!

I just checked the karma log and I can see no record at all of anyone taking any points from you Dowdeswell!
Am I going mad?
I promoted you when I saw you had 40 points, the majority earned in DHoffmann's tuning puzzle.
Was I dreaming?
Did DHoffmann take them away again, and if so why doesn't it show in the records?
I'm bewildered!

Clearly I'm going mad and have restored Dowdeswell to Rookie status..

Here are the other photos of this car with its later body as puzzled by Djetset a couple of years ago along with the unmodified puzzle photo:
