Hi Bert,
Skoda L or 6L? Not sure about that one but I think it is Czech in any case.

Hi Max,

thanks for Your answer! Sorry, it is not a Skoda. But You are right. It is a Czech one.

Best regards

Bert

Hi Bert,
I didn't think so. How about a Tatra 85 Tanker, although I don't know what it would be doing with the SS?

Hi Max,

thank You for Your reply. You are getting closer. It is not a Tatra 85 tanker, but Tatra is correct.

Best regards

Bert

OK Bert,
I'll step up to the plate one last time and either strike out or hit a home run. Could it be one of the first vehicles I considered but discounted and the trooper standing in front has been hiding that distinctive firewall bulge of the T 27 all along?

Hi Max,

excellent! You are totally right that it is the one of the first vehicles You considered. Unfortunately You discounted it. Indeed the driver standing beside the door is hiding that distinctive firewall bulge of the T 27. Here a pic of such a truck (type 27 b). Sorry for this very difficult question.
Now it is Your turn to go on with the quiz.

Best regards

Bert

Hi Bert,
Thanks for your patience and nothing to be sorry for. On the contrary, questions of otherwise easily identifiable vehicles that are made challenging by their position in the photo are often the best. I really enjoyed it anyway.

This next car of the Gebirgsjäger, on the other hand, is relatively unobscured but looks a bit incongruous in its present location. Good luck everyone!

Hi Max,
I think that it is an Imperia, perhaps a TA11 Jupiter?
Cheers,
Kerry.

Hi Kerry,

Imperia TA 11 Jupiter? You mean like this?

Well you are absolutely 100% correct! Now that didn't take long, did it?
Well done, mate and now it's your turn at the wheel.
Cheers,
Max

Thank you Max,

Here is a little bit of exotica, hopefully not used before.

Good hunting!

Kerry.

Hi Kerry,
Typical Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera styling. It's a matter of finding this particular example.
Cheers,
Max

Hi Max,
You are on it! Perhaps if you were Greek it sounds like you should start here, but the "experts" say there are only seven seas, what do they know!
Cheers,
Kerry.

Hi Kerry,
To be honest I'm too dense to get any help from your clue (Aegean Sea?) so I'll just throw this possibility (and there are several) out there to put the ball in play. The wheel covers are a bit different but the car's size looks very much in line with a FIAT 1500:

Hi Max,
I have no doubt that you are not "too dense", bad clues. The first Greek part is alphabetical, the second numerical. Also just short of 3 thousand.
Cheers'
Kerry
