NigelG Posted April 23, 2024 Share #21602  Posted April 23, 2024 Well I'm just about to head for Rome having just got back from Antigua (First world problems I know) so won't be able to post - but I suspect the mystery car is manufactured rather closer to London that Stuttgart 😉 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that had me thinking! I've just typed-in the locations concerned into the AA Route Planner site and, sure enough, by taking the shortest routes between the towns involved you are absolutely correct. The distance between London and Stuttgart IS longer. By around five-hundred-and-forty miles / eight-hundred-and-seventy Km and by a factor of 18... There! That's a fine clue for those who are good with 'sums'. Take loads of snaps (of cars) and have a lovely time! Philip.

I'm delighted that a picture of a windscreen pantograph can result in so many interesting answers. Just as well I didn't post a snap of the door-handle! OK; I'm not absolutely sure but this might be the door-handle... Welcome, dear visitor!

stuny Posted April 23, 2024 Share #21611  Posted April 23, 2024 My guess would be in the 570 series, probably 570 GT. I have a fallback position if it's not the 570. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
