Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand.
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Oh, Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

I've read of the struggles spotting any "i" makers names, I'd love to say I'd a little 3 wheel Issetta in the garage (my dad owned one "in period" along with a load of "old tat" that now is very much classic territory)

Nearest I that I can point camera at:

I was a little surprised at the results of a little word association game I threw out at Chez Falcon on the subject of this next entry. "Name 3 people top of the head with the name MAX. :?: ". Try it see if anything novel pops up :-D

Yes Bygraves came up as number one, (odd in itself he's never been on the telly/radio for ages!) but at number 2 was Max Verstappen and the surprise. Chez falcon in general are not great followers of Formula 1, but Max must be the current "Max" most repeated on a regular basis, and in general he is always given the full name treatment on news bulletins which habitually choose to report Formula 1 in sports news.

I went for Max Bygraves, Max Headroom and Max Mullarkey although no one else in the FCF throng will have heard of him .

PS. turns out there is another snap there Matt was posting mine just as you did yours!

First ones to pop into my head were Mallowan, Miller and Headroom!
