--- Quote from: Gromitt on September 01, 2017, 12:03:08 pm ---Around the beginning of this millennium, Honda introduced a car with the name Fitta. That means c*nt in Swedish. They changed the name to Jazz quite fast. --- End quote --- Close.. It was called the "Honda Fit", but it was still deemed to be too close for comfort. |
