What’s that? You think you know a thing or two about utterly unexceptional cars? Then you’re in the right place to pitch your knowledge against our slightly tedious test.

Tsk, tsk. Your ‘correct’ answer to #6 is wrong…
Watch the Strada TV commercial (it’s on you tube) for proof of this. Oh, and then hunt down the famous Not the Nine O’Clock News sketch to see where you went wrong.
Didn’t expect to get 10/10. Bit sad.
