PORSCHE - Poor Old Rich Sod Cannot Have Everything

BSA again - B****y Sore A**e.
Not an acronym, but Frantic B*****d for Francis Barnett I liked - or was that the owner.
Actually, BSA B series singles were very strong, and there were lots of lovely Gold Star bits to put in them. Mind you, I had one really explode - 7 1/2 k was too much.

MG - Might Go
SAAB - Smooth And Agile Barge
Suzuki - Simply Useless Zimmer Unless Kept Indoors
Merc - My Elderly Rusty Crap

Here goes:
Daihatsu : Don?t ask if honesty and truth seem unnecessary
Tata. Trouble and teething abound.
LDV: lets drive vindictively.
Volvo: Very occasionally letting vans out.
Mazda: Monkey and zebra dancing around.
Lancia : Let all nissans crash in anger.
Skoda : Shopping kart often driven arrogantly.
Austin : Atrociously underdeveloped so testing is needed.
Nissan: Nothing seems simple and natural.
Peugeot: pick every ugly girl except on Tuesday.
Mercedes: Mostly engineered rediculously cheaply every day except Sunday.
Regards,
Ash.

I thouth that QUANTAS was "Qite a nine trip, arrived safely".
And BOAC was "Boys overseas acting foolishly"
|
|
|
|
Sorry, can't spell BOAC, too early in the day for a Saturday
|

The BOAC quote should have been, referring to their pilots "Boys overseas after cr*mp*t". (Official version given to me by a British Midland Airways stewardess).
