Default Guess these cars

This is not an official quiz, nor is there any prizes, as I have no money, it's just for fun, and the only thing you will get out of it is the ability to be smug for a little while!!!!

Not sure how easy this will be but here goes:










The winner will be the FIRST one who can name ALL pictures (preferably in order) in full - i.e. not just the manufacturer!!!

Good luck and get guessing!

Some good guesses but your not quite there. I wont tell you what you got right or wrong so that other people can guess, but i will say that you need to be a little more specific on some, and there are a few that are completely wrong

Good first guesses though

For further reference, anything above 600 pixels wide, start stretching the page for 1024 pixels screen res, and 1024x768 is still the most used one, so we have to base the forum on it

Yes there is one that is wrong, it may be due to the fact that the car might be called a slightly different name in the netherlands. But there is one car in there for witch you have got the completely wrong manufacturer and model

I'll give you a clue, you were practically spot on in the first set of guesses, but you had the whole qvale thing, and another one that needs a bit more info.

Then on your second lot of guesses, you changed a few to the wrong ones.

The only remaining fluff up is the one that needs a bit more info, put that togeather with your first guesses and your there
