Yes, what took you so long?

No idea why I didn't see it earlier

It its brand name the same as that of an unrelated but better-known car?

Wendax

No, I think its brand name is quite unique in the automotive world.

By the way, this is the first time I've participated in a multi-car puzzle and I'm not familiar with the generally accepted practices. There is a general AP rule against simultaneously asking more than one question about the subject car in an individual-car puzzle (which makes very good sense to me). However, whenever someone has created multiple individual-car puzzles, it has always been acceptable to simultaneously ask questions about each of the different cars in their respective threads (which makes just as much sense to me). In the present scenario, with multiple cars in one thread, is it acceptable to simultaneously ask questions about the different cars? In other words, is it 'one question at a time per thread' or 'one question at a time per car'? Thanks!

It depends on the puzzle creator. I have limited the number of answers per day in group puzzles before in order to avoid a sudden solution of the whole puzzle, especially when the puzzle was moved from expert to pro level. But that wasn't necessary this time, so fell free to attack different tasks at a time.

I don't recall ever seeing an example of the first item in this salty trio, but I'm giving it a shot anyway...

Cum grano salis.  ;D
Rust AF is not a Salter, Architecture 18 is the right place, but for better progress have a closer look at the picture, and Extra a is a Beetle from Salzburg, but I need a bit more details. ??-18-a locked for you.

Here's an attempt :
- AF : Stanley car
- 7 : a place near Lyon
- ae : Stan robot (by Stanley Robotics) at Lyon Saint-Exupéry airport

Extra ae is correct, the rest isn't.
