I'm not exactly sure what this thread is about, but would just like to politely point out . . .
. . . . . Anyone who drives a German car (but especially BMW and Mercedes) is a ******! . . .

It makes far more logic than trying make up new words to call cars.
Take the Nissan Qashqai as a prime example. I had to google that to actually get the right spelling![Cuckoo](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/cuckoo.gif)
And what will Vauxhall/Opel do when they run out of words that end with the letter A?
(anyway, they f**ked it up with the Monaro and Signum...feejits
)

Probably feels he doesn't have to because he drives a Subaru and they are the best thing since sliced bread
Since leaving Subaru ownership i have realised theres a lot more out there without all the hassle and expense.
Nik.
ps. in the past i have owned three Golfs (mk3 gti, mk4 gti turbo & mk4 v6 4motion) and found them to be very well built and reliable cars as is my current S3.

. . . .Very eloquently put . . . Yes . . The WRX is the best car in the world, and that's being modest!

. .A Subaru is a cult and a lifestile and it envokes in me a certain state of mind . .
. . . . Where as a Gold GTi or not is a glorified German Mondeo . .
. . Its everyman's/woman's car which anyone and everyone can like!

The porsche 911 was originally going to be called the 901, but peugeot put a stop to that as they copywrited the 'O' as the middle number (or letter as you pronounce it as Ohhh).
So the french do it, Oh and the Japanese - Mada 323, Oh and the italians - Ferrari etc etc
It does stop manufacturers coming up with names like 'Charon' tho !
On the other hand it does mean that the same model in different countries are often need a different name
MR2 in french anyone ?
