Back for another try at this week’s Mystery Destination Quiz? I’ll be revealing the answer tomorrow, but if you’ve figured it out beforehand just leave a comment. Before we get to today’s clues and destination photos (there will be four for you today), let’s continue with this week’s other random subjects: Dramatic Skies, Automobiles, and Desert Color. We’ll start with some cactus color:

And transition an El Paso desert sunset:

Let’s take a look at another favorite car. I once owned a roadster version of this next automobile, which I drove for a decade or so:

Hmmm…. I notice both of today’s automobiles are English in origin. And both originate from the 1960s. I wonder if that’s a clue to this week’s Mystery Destination? Or were they meant to deceive? Just in case, I’ll give you three automobile(?) hints in today’s clue list:

• Automobile Clue #1: Mini Moke
• Automobile(?) Clue #2: Rover
• Automobile Clue #3: KAR 120C
  • Character One (referring to KAR 120C): “I know every nut and bolt. I built it myself!”
  • Character Two’s reply: “Then you’re just the man I need. It keeps overheating in traffic. Perhaps you’d care to advise me.”
• Remember the clue earlier this week about featured numbers? Try this infamous exchange:
  • Protagonist: “Who are you?”
  • Antagonist: “The new Number Two.”
  • Protagonist: “Who is Number One?”
  • Antagonist: “You are Number Six.”
  • Protagonist: “I am not a number. I am a free man!”
  • Antagonist: [Hearty, diabolical laughter]
• The ending of this hit show was so controversial that the star/creator/producer had to flee his home country and relocate to Switzerland.
• “Be seeing you.” Tomorrow, that is, for the Big Reveal.
