Title: M#17 - Solved - Cooper-Buick by B.R.T. Developments
Post by: metalshapes on May 19, 2010, 01:51:52 PM
Another Puzzle made me think of this one ( that is a big hint...)

Its a Mini, no points for that.

Who built it?

What is its most unusual feature?

A point for each correct answer.

I would say its most unusual feature is that it has the engine at the rear, but it's maybe too obvious...

And although I didnt ask for that, that was its name.

So I'll give you a point as well...
