This is not an official quiz, nor is there any prizes, as I have no money, it's just for fun, and the only thing you will get out of it is the ability to be smug for a little while!!!!

Not sure how easy this will be but here goes:

The winner will be the FIRST one who can name ALL pictures (preferably in order) in full - i.e. not just the manufacturer!!!

Good luck and get guessing!

Some good guesses but your not quite there. I wont tell you what you got right or wrong so that other people can guess, but i will say that you need to be a little more specific on some, and there are a few that are completely wrong

Good first guesses though

Next time dude, please post smaller pics linking to big ones, just small ones or just urls.. it's hard to read the posts when the pages stretches for 1300 pixels...

For further reference, anything above 600 pixels wide, start stretching the page for 1024 pixels screen res, and 1024x768 is still the most used one, so we have to base the forum on it ;)

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 07:25 AM
ok, so try to keep it under 600 pixels wide?

Yes there is one that is wrong, it may be due to the fact that the car might be called a slightly different name in the netherlands. But there is one car in there for witch you have got the completely wrong manufacturer and model

Pic 8 is a DeTomaso Bigua

That's wierd, i'll give you that it's the same picture, but it's a completely different car i was thinking of, and i can give the website as proof, when the winner is found.

LotusGT1

Later it was the Qvale Mangusta...they bought the model of DeTomaso. The car in that picture is the DeTomaso though :)

ahaa...well played, your just not quite there on some of the others though

LotusGT1
06-19-2004, 07:53 AM
Let me tell you I'm damn curious were the mistakes are...:) We'll see...

Very good job LotusGT1, I was goin to point out the Qvale Mangusta thing but you did already.
I am wondering where you went wrong too...... :roll:

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 09:23 AM
I'll give you a clue, you were practically spot on in the first set of guesses, but you had the whole qvale thing, and another one that needs a bit more info.

Then on your second lot of guesses, you changed a few to the wrong ones.

The only remaining fluff up is the one that needs a bit more info, put that togeather with your first guesses and your there

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 09:25 AM
Or you could just tell me when you give in.... :P

LotusGT1
06-19-2004, 09:35 AM
The Noble M12 is a M400 or a GTO-3R, differences are too minimal to spot. I am correct about the Marcos Marcasite TS250. The Koenigsegg is indeed a CC 8S.

Besides the Noble I don't see where I'm possibly wrong...

Oh, and I know its Jensen, not Jenson, typo ;)

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 12:24 PM
Yep, your spot on, but (and i'm really giving it away now) there is one car that needs a manufacturer

I can't seem to find any wrong answers there please enlighten us...

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 12:31 PM
Lotus GT1 has got everyone right, but there is one car in there that doesn't have a manufacturer name.

T-Bird
06-19-2004, 12:39 PM
they all have the manufacturer listed

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 01:22 PM
Alright, alright, pic 1 - you say that it is a carver, thats the model name, but who make it???

T-Bird
06-19-2004, 01:36 PM
vandenbrink

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 01:40 PM
well played. Now the fights can begin between you and LotusGT1 as to who holds the right as the winner!!! :lol:

T-Bird
06-19-2004, 01:42 PM
LotusGT1 won if you click the link he posted for the carver it says the name of the manufacturer

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 02:51 PM
Yeah i suppose, but it didnt actually say so in the list - all the others did, just not that one, or am i being too harsh?

T-Bird
06-19-2004, 03:03 PM
too harsh you need to be a little lenient if you wanted to be that anal you should make us guess which M12 that is and the years of all the cars.

topgeartom
06-19-2004, 03:12 PM
Sorry, point taken. Well played everyone.

The crown goes to lotusGT1

And between you and me, the Carver is registered over here as Carver, not as Vandenbrink Carver ;)

I can tell you that the differences are not too minimal to spot...the M400 has an extended scoop at the rear edge of the doors...this car does not, therefore it is the M12 GTO-3R.

Ladies and gentelmen, we have a professional in the room :D

I wouldnt have had a clue about that, i just knew it was a GTO-3R

Vansquish
06-20-2004, 08:35 PM
There were a few other clues too...for instance, the wheels have "3R" printed at on the hub and I also happen to have that exact same picture in my collection hehe....here are a couple of shots of the M400 for comparison:
