Liam Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Q: What Does "Maginot Line" mean in French? A: "Speed bump ahead" Allright then what be the french for "drops" and who was Eric Morecombes "favourite" singer Quote
Liam Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Des is correct! Now try drop(s) remembering this is a french car. You might also like to consider location and who used to make tea cakes Quote
samcooke Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 It's a Couttin-Des Gouttes of some kind. Quote
Liam Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Well done Sam. Close enough. Cottin et Desgouttes. Lyon. Drops? Lionise? Just glad I didn't have to think of a clue for Cottin Quote
samcooke Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 That's what I said. Kind of. I fear this may be a bit easy for the more grey haired amongst us Quote
fatbaldbloke Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Without Googling I'm going to suggest this is a Lola T70 Spyder. Warm? Quote
Nic Ayre Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Looks more Ginetta G11 / G12 ish on the front end Quote
Liam Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I don't think it's a T70. It looks an altogether smaller car. The grill looks too small, the lights aren't in the right place and the rear air intakes are wrong. Other than that, not a clue Quote
samcooke Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 You're right - much smaller than a T70. Clue 1 : Variously powered by 2 litre BMW, Coventy Climax or BRM V8 in period. Quote
samcooke Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Do I just have to trust you on that? Quote
Nic Ayre Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Elva? Mind was working well until distracted by the TV, Rachel Allen holding a Butternut Squash Quote
samcooke Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 You're right, you were much closer first time. Quote
carpetstu Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Do I just have to trust you on that? yep Quote
