Wow! I had no idea Evo was such a car buff.
 
I was quite disappointed when I clicked on 'Picture Gallery'. They're all cars.

Especially after the enticing lead-in:
evo's publisher Allan Pattison commented: "evo's features are so beautifully photographed it is great to raid the archive and combine our finest work into one book. It's also practical as we show you where to grab a Cappucino ...
Alas, I must have missed her, as by time I turned around from getting my cappucino, I was only able "...to spot the latest Ferrari rumble out of the factory gates on a test drive around Modena."

Good cappucino, though. :cool:
 
My guess is, it was a compromise that the magazine would carry Evo's name but print pictures that Moonbear likes to look at. :smile:
 
:smile: Yes, I've also had a computer named in my honor. Not to mention The Cyborg Evo joystick. :-p

:!) Nice cars! :biggrin: Now, where are the drivers? :-p
 
Moonbear has a large mammal and a large orbiting body named after her.
Edit: added the "named after her" part for safety reasons.

Ah, yes, I imagine not adding that phrase might have been hazardous to your health. :-p

Those cars aren't elegant enough! To fit the dreaminess that is Evo the cars should be Rolls Royce's, Duesenbergs, or Bugatti's.:!)

Did you hear about the new Rolls Royce? they bought Suzuki and they are remaking the Samuri. It's new name is the Rolls Over.
 
  • #13
