the 1st msc anorak quiz

59 bhp is more than enough

Deactivated Account
Taking inspiration from another thread I’ve decided to find out who is the biggest anorak amongst us a) because I’ve got nothing better to do and b) because it would be interesting to find out who is the saddest one here

Now you might be thinking that anyone could just get on tinterweb and cheat so I trust you all to not use the internet to answer any of these questions because that would just ruin it all for the rest of us doing it properly.

Now all these questions are on Japanese cars and some will be stupidly difficult and some will be relatively easy. There is also a trick question in there somewhere to try and seek out those people who have used google or other internet search engines.

After you have answered them all don’t post them up so other people can copy, email them to me at [email protected] I will reward the winner with a set of red ally bonnet pins un-opened (yeah I know not a great prize but better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick and its the only thing i have goin spare) I will announce the winner in a week from today (4/3/06)
