It really was. Didn't originally see it on TV so got the DVD which is how i got the pics. I think the 5th episode on how 'teenagers' and their identity came about was the best one.

Done.
1* Saab and BMW (Series 5?) too littles and far background for a vehicles with only 1* and also usual models in the site

Where's the custom-made moon buggy that was based on a japanese quadbike or whatever, why was that not listed. I only just noticed

Sorry, I missed out. I'm going for it now.
By the way, Xingling (?) what maker is?
