Let me know if you can speak luigi.

Big thanks

Oh, and I know that Italian isn't just English with an "aa" on the end of every word.

Not sure yet, they're reviewing a model of mine. Might not be an interview.

Yes.

Doesn't help that I use Alias software, so it translates that as Pseudonyium or something

I once told a forum full of German Astra owners that my car benefitted from Irmscher knob rings.

Well I wrote my message, translated it, and apparently when I meant to say "Dear ..." I was in fact saying "Beloved ... "

They all understood, just laughed openly at my English stupidity. They all speak fantastic English and I couldn't even manage a spec list with an online translator and irmscher.de already open.

The pics forum is full of xenon headlights and nav. European cars - meaning just fairly standard stuff with foreign number plates photographed in the sun - are so damn cool. I would have German plates for mine if the 4 didn't actually look so much like a real 4.
