Good eye - I suspect you know what this one is.

Wendax · December 08, 2011, 05:30:09 AM

At first sight I thought it could be a Benz, but wouldn't that be too simple?

No, not a Benz

Neither of those. Name is one syllable

Wendax · December 08, 2011, 02:29:59 PM

According to my source, yes. If a widely quoted automotive reference says otherwise, I cannot be held responsible.
