Channel 4's "Ultimate Car Quiz"
I stumbled upon this quiz on their website a little while ago.
They call it the Ultimate quiz as it has 1000 (!) questions, and you have three lives. Good luck and post your highest score!
p.s It's not as easy as you might think..

The first question was nice, about the Monaro so that was easy.....after that it stuffed up since it kept repeating the same question (about the director of BULLIT).
So lets just say I got 1/1.....yay 100%.

It's a very weak job done by the makers of the quiz... The questions keep repeating themselves, sometimes it doesn't remember what alternative I marked..
The ultimate test is the wrong name for it...

This isn't an ultimate car quiz, these questions are mostly just vague related to cars. An ultimate car quiz must be about cars, not like this!!!!!!

Yay 54 points!!! Check out the leaderboard lol
Some of those questions have such a tenuous link with cars - like what colour car did some actor you've never heard of drive in a film you've never seen or heard of? - WTF is that to do with cars really? Annoying pop-up ads too.
EDIT: 120 points.
