for ScuttleButtleria Turbo Rosy...

... remembering the various continental meanings of rose, rosa, roze, ...

how about: http://www.trikerbike.nl/scuttle_bug_rose_bestellen


after all, if you were going to race one of those you'd want a turbo on it. Very Happy

Don't ask me where I got that, but the Golgotha Yoyota is indeed a Toyota but more precisely the RAV4.

Bughabit Werewolf would in my book aswell be the Bugatti Veyron, as while the car was named after a famous bugatti type 33 driver, Veyron is a quality more often associated with dogs and canines.


Great deduction on the Axle Off Hasslehoff one!

I'm curious as well as to how you get the RAV4 as well as what the word "Veyron" means?

Doubt turbo much helps, nothing smaller than rocket helps.

Things updated again.. I'll keep the RAV4 suggestion as a guess until the deduction can be eplained or someone can reproduce the deduction. I tried everything I could think of to try and get your result but with no luck.. Sad

I just licked the Milestrone Turbo origin. Milestrone from what I can tell is the same as (or a common typo of) minestrone - a famous Italian dish. Knowing the dish's origin and listening to the phonetic sound of the word's first syllables, it become blaringly obvious that it is the Mini. The specific model? The turboed Mini Cooper S, used as getaway cars in the 2003 film "The Italian Job". It could even be Charlie's mini which sort of sounds like "strone", but I'm not sure...

With this, there is only Bimbo Turbo 2 left untried, with a few others with guesses not yet locked in. We are so close to completion it's not funny, and Llyu hasn't even stepped in the thread yet! Let's finish it before Llyu comes in and gives all the blanks away. Razz

I thought you decided that Bimbo Turbo is the BMW Turbo?

RAV4 for Golgotha?
did you google it and found the advertising on Toyota car bras:
Quote:
To put it another way, your Toyota RAV4 bra is like the +10 Vitality Golgotha Shield of Excelsior your Dwarf Paladin carries around on his AD&D adventures. Really, the only difference between the Toyota RAV4 bra and the Golgotha Shield of Excelsior is that you won’t need to slay of herd of Mountain Trolls to get a Toyota RAV4 car bra.

The answer might be a bit boring but could it be the Toyota Corolla?

I dont really speak french, but when i put on my frenchish accent "Corolla" sounds almost the same than "golgotha" in my french accent Rolling Eyes
