Where the 'ell are you all eh? Busy hmm hmm? It comes to something when I have to start a thread... I shall try and come up with one... in a minute....


In the meantime I should mention that the JDKs Skoda was pronounced beyond fiscal repair today - I laughed a bit because I made him buy it... and he listened to me!


 


I've known him 4 years in August and he STILL listens to me! so much for an IQ of 157

Oh and just to add...


This is what he emailed to me earlier -


Fancy a bit o’ car hunting over the next week or so?  The front brakes are screwed, needs 2 tyres and myriad other bits and pieces.  I think I’ll be takin’ it home tonight and burning it.  BURNING IT!


Bless him - he STILL wants me to help him choose one - so Im throwing the floor open - what pile of doodoo should I pursuade the JDK to not only buy but drive around in over the coming 12 months - there is a prize on a price/crumminess ratio basis...

Ford names things funny, your "fiesta" looks a whole lot like our "festiva"



I guess its all up to the Marketing Dept on what name they think will sell better in different regions.

Mitsubishi launched the 'Starrion' in the UK because the name badge manufacturer mis-heard the guy from Japan when they ordered the 'Stallion' badges...


 


Thats mostly true I think...

Chevy tried mistakenly to market the Chevy Nova in Mexico.
