See. And I think Jag-U-ar sounds pretentious. I admit that it may have something to do with the snooty sound of the guy who did the commercials.

But Jags are pretentious cars. If we didn't have the potholes we do here, I'd have an XJS convertible (any colour will do :) ).

lol...maybe so, but it's just the way the word is pronounced - unless you live in the US I guess.

Snooty.......or English?:P

Excuse me, but I've heard plenty of poms who sound very far from snooty. lol

Oh hell I know that....but shhhhhh don't tell the yanks:P

lol...surely even they know that not all poms sound snooty and even fewer actually are?

nah, they think all poms are cockney :P

well you can't be cockney and snooty at the same time.

One would think not!

Snooty. I can tell the difference. As I said at the beginning of this thread, I love English literature and English phrases.

After thinking about Limey's comment, I think maybe snooty was what they were shooting for, in any case.

Well no, but then you only need to look at Mary Poppins to see how well either concept is understod ;)

btw, they pronounce Nicargua to rhyme with Jaguar. Weirdos. :p

I know....I was just being flippant, forgive me :P

Uh...it's a Ford. ;)
