It's not Welsh. You 'tard. hehe
It is - the Welsh "Ambiwlans" is on the bonnet. The part above the windscreen is in English. This reflects how they are marked out in the real world.

Went on a road trip last night with a pal to collect an ebay purchase from Myther Tydfill (or something like that)
The welsh guy we collected from was unusually chatty and was keen to tell us that on weekends he drives an Ambulance

"Ambulance or Abiwlans?", I asked.
He looked puzzled.

Where I'm working in Wales is Barry in English and Barri in Welsh, which are very similar, but Tesco comes out quite different.

I'm speechless. I certainly wasn't expecting this. I would like to thank The Institute for granting me The Ambiwlans Thread 2014 Tard Award. I'm overwhelmed and don't know where to begin. I would like to thank my parents for always believing I was a Tard and my school for developing my talent for Tardistry. I must, of course, thank James Tigerwoods without whom there would be no Award and Silent1 for his inestimable contribution. And finally I would like to thank the Members of The Institute who keep this glorious carnival on the road. Thank you.

Nope... Can't see that we have anyone else in common on there. Sometimes it still impresses me how clever all this stuff is. You're not linked with Puggit are you?
