My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.
What stuff do you think is common?

Or get a real job rather than scrounging benefit......then you could perhaps afford a real German car with a decent trim level. Something like... oh... the A4 Quattro in SE trim (for comfort) or S-line trim (for handling if you don't mind a hard ride).
Of course I'd take an Audi A4 over a Mondeo... but I'd take a 2 litre Mondeo over a 1.6 A4. Believe it or not they did make an A4 with a 1.6 litre engine, a car that weighs about 1.6 tons. 0-60 takes about 16 seconds in it, compared to 7.5 seconds in my 2 litre A4.

AudiPeople do tend to point and shout cock at German saloons and most Audi's including my R8 which I think rules. I hear what your saying having a 2 litre Mondeo over a 1.6 Audi, but I'd go with the x type Jag over the Mondeo as it's quicker, but go 3 litre for the 4 wheel drive and powwwwwer!
