I've now done a complete trawl of S1 (8eps), and basically James was right - it's mostly porridge-mobiles and particularly white Toyotas.

One reject from ep 1.01 - the arse-end of a dead pick-up Planes for impdb - all same venue - ep 1.02 - ep 1.03 S2 - another 8 eps - on my to-do list.

Much as S1 to watch - excellent visuals, over-complicated plot, but it wraps up all the loose ends fairly neatly, leaving it nice and tidy while set up for a start-from-scratch S3 if they wanted. Rejects: Ep 2.01: - some black pick-uppy thing in the shed before the Rodeo takes its place - a digger and a blue thing (noticeable onscreen due to the shortage of other blue things) Ep 2.03 - a fire crew double cab pick-up Ep 2.05 - camera-shy red and yellow hotrods at the festival - bit pointless arranging for them to be on set and then not showing them properly??
