Right then have a go at these,
1- Which colour except Marine Blue was the rarest exported to Australia.
2- Name one of the most common (there are 2 of equal amounts according to my records).
3- Where were the No Plate lamps obtained for the first RS2600 ( the lightweights).
4- What month and year was the first production RS2600 built.
5- Where were the aerodynamic tests carried out on the RS3100.

I know little about the RS2600, so some answers are a complete guess, the others educated guesses and I am far from well educated ;D
1) Olympic Blue
2) Sebring Red (known as burnt orange in the trade) and Diamond White
3) No idea, going to look in to this!
4) September 1970
5) MIRA (Motor Industry Research Association)

OK, to bring us closer or further from the truth, I'll go for:
1) Stardust Silver
2) Diamond White and the second choice Daytona Yellow
3) No idea, but the German equivelant of Halfords
4) September 1970
5) MIRA

How did i get 4.5? Would i be correct in guessing the lost .5 is weather you class the 50 lightweights as production or not?

Wayne, top marks there mate 15 out of 5, now then seems I also need to go back to school mark should have read 3.5 out of five, Gareth's second attempt also 3.5 out of 5, Vernons second attempt 4.5 out of 5. The reason Mark that you and others managed to achieve half a point is that question 2 name one the most popular colours not both of them however if you have got both correct it would still only added up to 5, BUT you could get a brucey bonus  |

Len, I'm afraid I'm going to have to give you only 3.75 out or 5 for that quiz. You have to remember, we're like capri headlights. Not the brightest lights on the road!

Many thanks Vernon, never had a mark that good at school having said that was never interested in any subject at school as much as I am Capri's. Speaking of reversing sensors anyone heard how Ian is getting on with them? I do hope he has not been to a show without using them |
