The Case of the Curious Mirror

TOM: You gave a big hint.

RAY: I did?

TOM: It took three weeks to get it.

RAY: Which meant it probably traveled across the pond. The car was a Jaguar and the passenger-side mirror is, of course, on the left side in England, and on the right side in the States. The mirrors are not interchangeable. Pretty good, huh?

TOM: I think that was an excellent puzzle.

RAY: So who's our winner?

TOM: The winner this week is Mindy Weiser from Las Vegas, Nevada. And for having her answer selected at random from among all the correct answers that we got, Mindy's going to get a 26 dollar gift certificate to the Shameless Commerce Division at Cartalk.com.
