Given the topic of the club, shouldn't we adopt car English instead?

In the last year or so, around this many people have entered the country, from countries such as Poland.

All but seven of them are now employed cleaning the bottom of Tim's car using just the purest possible saliva! The other seven are also employed by Tim working in his kitchens to ensure that the remainder are fed just the right diet to ensure Ph neutral saliva with no excess salt in it!

Tractor your kidding?
I worked with Anderson Consulting for two years at the Ford/Fiat New Holland Tractor plant in Basildon. I often wandered around the production lines looking at the processes and the test drives were always fun especially in the ones with really big engines and lots of wheels.

They did Keith. In truth I haven't seen that many but a couple of years back my 75 broke down in Poland within 15kms of an MG Rover dealership in a little town called Plock. How lucky was that!
Very helpful they were too and had to spend a few pleasant days whilst the sourced parts.
MGR sold a lot of cars here too. One dealer bought 60 new cars in 2002 and sold them all in no time at all.
