17/20 and btw. there was a mistake in the quiz. :lol: First FWD car Volvo produced was a 480, not a 440 as the option was. ;) 480 was a sort of a "test-bench" for the 440 and 460.

It bugs me too when a quiz has the wrong answer to a question.

I just picked up on the 480 thing... I didn't realise how sad I'd got... 18/20 for me, failing on the bearing question, and the 242 trim spec one.

I got 18/20 but I have also found another mistake. UK 240 GLE spec models have always had the crome work - it was only GLT's that got the all black trim.

The last question is the one that got me - no idea.
