The answer is correct.

Each order/condition given in the four statements is correct and the unique arrangement is deducible from those statements.

@Prasant: Your arrangement violates the 2nd condition. I didn't check all conditions for your arrangement. One violation is enough.

@Abe: I couldn't make out what you mean by your statement.

@Veeraraju: Your arrangement violates 4th condition (before comma).

Don't apply too much head. If you do, make sure you are following the conditions stated before confusing others.

The answer is wrong. They have said that cadillac is "next to the right of fargo" not right of. So it should be cadillac in the other end and mercedes in the middle of fargo and cadillac.

What is wrong if I arrange like the following from left (top) to right (bottom). Fiat, Merce, Ambasd, Fargo, Cardil, Maru, Bedf. According to question, this sequence is also correct.

The sentence formation of the given question is wrong Instead of "Cadillac is right next to Fargo" they gave "Cadillac is next to right of Fargo''.

According to me, Question needs to be correct.

In 1st statement 'Cadillac is next to the right of Fargo' the word next need to be eliminated.

According to me, the answer is wrong. Cadillac should not be next to fargo. The statement says "cadillac is next to the right of fargo".
