Ha Ha Ha... No Clutch OK Drive , as printed on the reverse of the Mikasa leaflet. Fantastic!
I just love these 'International English' translations in old car brochures that actually make little or not sense at all in English!
I have a late 1960s international English brochure on the Suzuki Fronte 360, for which one of the available colours is 'Abysmal Green', plus a great Motokov export leaflet for the Zastava 101 in which one of that model's benefits is listed as "reassuringly unreliable' At least they were honest! ;D
How about this? :D
A very new Karma Revero brochure.... 8) 8) :hah: :bag:
