While a print with English title card can be found out there, it does look like a pair of shredded donkey testicles: A preposterous plot and a hopeless opening scene aside, this is actually a very enjoyable movie with a pre-fame Mary Tyler Moore decidedly pretty in pink (and in white) and some location shots in and around a sun-drenched Geneva most enchanting to observe. London traffic part one: Geneva traffic: London traffic part deux: Traffic light: And in the spirit of this last thumb, I bring an early Christmas present to our beleaguered admins who had to deal with so many "unknown" BMWs, VWs, MBs, etc. from me: I've cleaned up my backlog! My future contributions will thus be few and far between, and the way it looks probably mostly upgrades (antp beware!).
Lateef ◊ 2023-11-18 14:27	Picked up a rip of the potato version a few years back. I was hesitant to upload, so I'm glad I went with my gut now.

My future contributions will thus be few and far between, and the way it looks probably mostly upgrades (antp beware!). Your contributions have never been an issue for the admins. I actually looked forward to them. You at least submit things of interest and don't overdo the background cars or pitch black night scenes. I find it's better to leave things as "unknown" than to put in half the info or wrong info. I hope you decide to contribute again in the future.

I hope you decide to contribute again in the future. Thank you for the kind words. I know you would've told me if my "uknown" BMWs etc. bothered you, so I was just exaggerating a little there, trying to be funny. As for my 'lack' of dark, blurry and small background vehicles, you can thank antp. As I was sending him upgrades and possible additional vehicles, he gave me a lot of pointers as to what he thought was worth listing, and I just went with that. Obviously, I made some exceptions for whichever reason that seemed valid to me at the time. As for future contributions, I'm not going away, it's just that I insist on watching movies before I contribute them, so my rate of contributions will now inevitably drop. antp wrote It was long time since the last batch of updates you sent me Fear not. I have a long list of movies I can work on now that my backlog is history... -- Last edit: 2023-11-18 17:57:58
dsl ◊ 2023-11-18 20:53	One thing I appreciate as a spotter - you choose intelligent views of things to capture, usually with detail to enable precise IDs. And if for whatever reason the detail isn't visible and I say something like "needs a view of wheels/badges/grille/whatever to pin down" another pic soon pops up with the particular feature. And you seem to learn what I (and other spotters) look for, so that your next posting of a Bloggsmobile anticipates the question. So a big from me.
humungus ◊ 2023-11-18 22:12	Thanks, dsl! I do read comments under my contributions and I do appreciate it whenever you guys take the time explain why some car is this model or that year, because it enables a vehicular dilettante like me to know what to look for when making captures.

Hopefully not too few and far between, genuinely a pleasure to deal with which looking at the contribution list is unusual. And, trust me, even if everything is down as Unknown it is actually preferable to having everything filled out... But wrong.
humungus ◊ 2023-11-18 23:51	^ Thank you kindly!

dsl ◊ 2023-11-20 22:35	Rejects for possible re-distribution if wanted London Pt 1 - thumb 1 a Mk3 Zephyr 4 (could go on the Z6 Mk3 page) - thumb 2 a RHD Valiant estate - rare enough in Uk to get a page. I don't know these well enough to decide if US or Aus version. If US it's a unicorn over here; if Aus it's a Chrysler Safari here, first imported Oct 66 as Medium and Premium - compare - and another unicorn with that shape before 68+ restyle. - thumb 7 another Daimler DR450 limo - looks 66 D plate London Pt 2 - thumb 6 another Wolseley 16/60

This is pretty much all there is to see of this unicorn: Meanwhile, I forgot this one:
dsl ◊ 2023-11-21 00:05	My best guess is that the Chrysler unicorn is a 67-only Aus-build Valiant [VC]. The "forgotten" dark blue is a poverty Arrow estate - either Hillman Minx or 70+ Hunter DL - happy to let it go without further attention. But the Valiant deserves a page .....
humungus ◊ 2023-11-21 00:44	^ Noted. I submitted the Valiant.
