| Land Rover General Knowledge Quiz - For Site Funds |
|
I've finished putting together a general 'quiz' on Land Rovers and hope to use it to help raise funds for the site. I started working on it at the end of April and was slightly distracted for a month but have some time off now and it's back on track and having finished it off today. Give or take, it roughly covers the following areas:
- The history of the Land Rover company
- The original Land Rovers and vehicles throughout time.
- Pub trivia about Land Rovers (dates, names, places etc.)
- The Land Rover brand (advertising campaigns, slogans etc.)
- Land Rover technical questions (names of colours, trim levels etc.)
- About modern Land Rovers
- Land Rover production
- Land Rover expeditions
- Other Land Rover knowledge
There are 50 questions in total, based generally on one or two Land Rover books and websites. Questions vary from blindingly obvious to 'How the .... would I know that?'.
If you feel like giving it a shot, donate £2 to the forum and quote your donation confirmation to me by PM and I'll reply to you with the Questions. The winner will be the one who answers the most correctly and a further donation will be given to the site on their behalf. To answer, reply to the PM listing your answers in a numbered list (1-50).
It's not serious - it's hopefully fun and people will hopefully learn lots of interesting/random facts about Land Rover. If you get full marks or no marks - nobody cares. Just go for it
I don't deny that you might find most the answers through Google, and if you think that's in the spirit of things then go for it, otherwise it would be interesting to see how people score through genuine knowledge
Answers will be revealed when entires dry up.
Good luck

Might have something to do with the fact that you launched it at the start of a busy drinking weekend
I suspect a lot of people will use this as an excuse to look busy at their desks on Monday
Thanks for the effort, I'll have a go donation sent

Cheers Gareth.
I appreciate many people donate in direct debit and £2 would seem like a trivial addition but I'm sure it all helps anyway.
A few interesting bits of trivia in it too.
