Trivia Question of the Day
Trivia Question of the Day
I thought I'd start this topic as I'm sure all of us stumble across interesting 'trivia' as we peruse the media or indeed our own brains.
Here are ze rules, vich vill be obeyed :
As in 'Where On Earth', no Googling, and the first person to get the correct answer asks the next question.
Here's my starter :
Volkswagen made 6.2 million cars in 2019 in its German factories. What did it make more of?
(The answer is not a component of a vehicle.)
