Darn.

Cute List Rick.

I think you should forward that to the developers of vehicle names, I believe a few of them are very fitting

Is that what it actually says Mrs. M.? That doesn't mean anything to me.

I took it word for word off the back of the record cover.

One of life's minor pleasures is twisting car model names - readers from across the pond may not recognise some:

Nissan Microbe
Vauxhall Verruca
Renault Migraine
Ford Fester
Ford Escrote
Citroën Pleurisy
Ford Grandad
Fiat Puko
Mississippi Popgun
Alfa 'Oh s**t, we haven't left a space for the number plate' 156

Not to mention the Nissan Repulsiv and the Toyota Corolla Arse-end.

There's a Korean brand called Hiundri which is where many owners get left, too.

Or 'Auspuff'? Mrs M will appreciate that one

Luftwagen?
