Amusing car acronyms

    Recently, my brother asked me a question

    "What does "TRD" mean on the back of a car? Does it mean that the car is a Turd?"

    I was wondering is there any more amusing car acronyms out there (eg Ashtray for Astra, etc)

    A strange character wrote into Top Gear magazine a few years ago to say Mitsubishi was actually an acronym for "Sh1tibumsi".

    and your right... BMW drivers do have more sex than any other drivers... but that's only because all other drivers are not into black men's willy's like BMW drivers.

    I remember seeing a Ford Escort special edition - black with some gold decals - with a little 'Cayman' graphic on the back. Some comedian using Tipp-Ex changed the 'C' to look like a 'G'...

    Good to see that Porsche has taken up the mantle again:)

    I know that, but I think that "Turd" suits the 1.4 Corollas that the badge is stuck on, especially with the stupid bodykits!

    And 'ashtray' would suit the Astra?

    It's obviously bringing out a lot of emotions from people that let themselves be overcome by the green-eyed begrudgery monster. People who will never make it past cheap-sh!te econoboxes themselves :D

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.
