When I was a child I was forced to join the free swim lessons every Saturday morning in the frigid , Pinkeye infested ,Canada Goose dropping laden mudhole known as Trout lake. Fooey!

I saw one not long ago in the street where I live. The hood ornament does not immediately reveal the manufacturer, I had to go close to find out what make it was.Friday's Car of the Day …

Cryptic Clue : Mozart comic opera performed in a WW1 soldiers' barracks.
Another Clue : Not as old as it pretends to be!
PaD …I saw one not long ago in the street where I live. The hood ornament does not immediately reveal the manufacturer, I had to go close to find out what make it was.
Ebike of the day is interesting; The owner started with a cheap frame and upgraded with parts from Ebay. It has a delimited 750 watt mid engine with a 14 Ah battery.Full suspension and more. He has addded a 180 mm front fork , a rear shock, plus a seatpost suspension. It also has 203 mm Shimano brakes and an electric horn that sounds like a foghorn to scare off bears on Burnaby Mtn. Upgraded wheels and tires too. This thing flies , I had to go full out to keep up. Oh yeah and look at the rear cluster. It should be able to climb just about anything.
Good clue .. Figaro Figaro Figaro Figaro...Friday's Car of the Day …

The recognition kudos are yours. And thanks for not blurting out its identity. (We need Steve to ponder for a while.)
I had no idea what it was; a leftover from the 1950s or 1960s? No.
This is a 1991 car from a well-known manufacturer (the WW1 barracks clue) who made 20,000 copies (right-hand drive only; another clue!) as an hommage to the classic small cars from Citroën, Fiat, Mini and Nash. What a romantic idea!
