Okay, so here’s the challenge. Give yourself 20 seconds to study this image really carefully.
No, I mean really carefully.
You can even click on the “view larger” option if you want ….
Then scroll back down here and answer just five short questions which will test your powers of observation. Get my drift? Okay, your time’s just about up now … so try the questions below.
Good luck, have fun – and leave me a comment telling me how many questions you answered correctly!
Question 1 What is the alpha-numeric registration plate of the vehicle?
Question 2 What is the colour inside the prospector’s pan?
Question 3 How many white bolts are there in the image?
Question 4 How long was the vehicle’s registration valid until?
Question 5 What is the name of the Toyota dealer?
The answers are listed right down the bottom ….

daf 29? (I know the number is wrong)
Yellow
2 underneath the plate, did not look at the plate
Jun 09
Mic Mac toyota
Really good result, Ellis. You got the alpha section right (DAF) so score half a point there; yellow is right, so score one point; 2 underneath is right, so score half a point; Jun 09 is right and Mic Mac Toyota is right. That’s a total of 4 out of 5 which is a great result!

Fun game! :-)
You know, I usually remember numbers so I am gutted that I was focussing on the 09 for the date and not on the number plate :-)
Glad you liked it, thanks for letting me know. Really appreciate it.

Lol – I didnt do so well – concentrated on the wrong info. I got the date and the dealership right!Fun aspect!
Thanks for having a look! Funnily enough, when I asked the owner if I could take this shot, he grinned and told me the car had just been cleaned so it was spotless!
