I scored 18. In my defence, I transported or at least saw quite a lot of the rare stuff when I worked in the luxury car movement industry. A surprising number of owners/collectors offered me a tour of their garages while I was there. Sample quote: "Would you like to come up to look in the other barn, and see all my Bentleys?"

13 - miserable score on the photos.

Good move Mr Z.

I scored 15 /23,quite surprised myself.
I was much better on the photos scoring 9/13 than the trivia 5/9 plus got the Champagne Charlie question correct.

10/23 - I am ashamed of myself not recognising the two Lamborghinis in the photo section and mistaking a Mangusta for the Mercedes Gullwing. Schoolboy errors.

However, my excuse for getting the Countach wrong is that I have seen the prototype in the flesh and not the later models which had different dashboards.

10/10 Yay!

Oh, it was out of 23?

Never mind...

I guessed my way to 12 points. I know nothing about Classic car of that type nor am really interested. Only interested in Joe Blogg's cars of 50s onwards.

All right then Oldgit - try these. (Sorry - I haven't the time or the ability to attach photos.)

1 What was the model name of the Jowett utility sold alogside the Javelin?

2 What was the 1200cc version of the mid-50s Morris Oxford called?

3 On which make of car was the Marauder (1950) based?

4 Which make produced the Hunter ten years before the Hillman Hunter?

5 In car terms, which is the odd one out - Devon, Dorset, Hampshire, Cornwall, Somerset?

6 How would you know you were being followed at night by a Wolseley?

7 How much did the first Mini cost to buy in 1959?

8 Who made the Viceroy?

9 Who else, apart from Peugeot, made a 405?

10 Who produced the Equipe in the 1960s using Triumph components?

With a grandfather who had a series of 1950's Austins, I can safely say there wasn't a Cornwall.
