I didn't see it but my wife did. George Fungus even mentioned it 'hang on a minute, a Volkswagen beetle is driving past'.
She says it was early but not oval, with a roof rack.

It wasn't an oval, but it was a white or cream colour, early to mid 60s I reckon. Looked pretty stock - nothing out of the ordinary.
I saw it on the 7pm edition, then again on the 11.45pm edition. I would have had a closer look the 2nd time if I had realised there was a quiz. lol

To be honest, when I saw it, I did almost bet there would be a thread on here about it, and wondered if you guys would know who it was. Shame you
didn't see it.

faded,falling apart Darwin Rifle Club sticker still on the back window!!! And its a 57' !!!!
