Who can tell me what this is?

The prize winner will be on their way to Barbados for a two-week holiday, all expenses paid and a free Maserati hire car

Shambles, my humble apologies I didn't see it!

Yes, you are quite correct.

Now, how did you manage to insert that post in there after the fact?

Is that one of the benefits of being a global moderator?

No, you were so busy hammering the "n" and "o" keys that you missed my post

Quite obviously a pinin; I just entered Jenson earlier to bide time while my brain got in gear. I am currently at work after all

Well done Shambles - you picked it well.

I have to say that had I not read about it, I would have said Citroen GS myself.

Yeah, that's true, it looks pretty similar from what I remember.
