Good trans Steve. Nothing material to add.

MFG is 'thanks' by the way.

Thanks everyone!!

I will send my reply in English, I have the feeling there will be a post on the German alternative to PH in a minute asking for a translation of my reply.

Thanks DrTre

Precisely. It's the German equivalent to our "best regards", like wot I said above.

We have a shared interest in Ford, have you any naked pictures?

It's actually much closer to yours sincerely i.e. used a formal setting. Gruß or the like is more like best regards.
