 Car4play quiz. - R.P.
I've found a book on my shelves (well I sort of knew it was there) it's one of those Road Test Annual from the 80s - anyway it set me thinking, there are some pearls and some lemons in there, cars that became legends which even JC wouldn't slag off (mind you he's too fat to fit in most - as an aside Private Eye describe him as "long faced").....anyway there's tests on 30 or so cars - including a "Verdict" which IMHO stand the test of times.

How about a little quiz - if I copy these verdicts and we play "guess the car" first one with the make and model gets 10 points and so on until we do all of them - the outright winner gets nothing other than the adoration of the others.

It won't be a fraction as complicated as Oilrag's quizez - just a bit of laugh and a chance to discuss old motors from the perspective of 20 + years on....

IF there's a modicum of interest I'll do it - otherwise I'll count the bricks in the gable end again...

No not in the book (thank goodness) most of the ones were and are still reasonably regarded cars

Too many old duffers here for the 60s, you youngsters would not stand a chance. :-)

I'm sorry I've only got an 80s book - at least as level a playing field as it can ever be - impossible to Google for the answers...! :-)
