t and Sam should leave him to burn/drown/get taken to an unknown fate by a Pontypandy taxi driver. There I said it. Come at me.

I suppose we will only find out at night. There was a recovery company in Scotland called 911 recovery, their wagons were blue/yellow chequer pattern like that. The owner was a serving special police constable.
There is something about the specials that attracts "specials". I've known a few over the years, not one of them would have passed a psychological evaluation.Sway said:

It's highly important. If you only mention the model eg 318 and the year without the E/F number the person your telling about your car won't know (and they surley must want to know) which generation it is as you may have a car from a year when the new model came out.
Tim F30 330d!
It really isn't 'highly important'. Your scenario where it might be useful in some contexts, only applies to years where the model changed gen and that only matters if it's actually pertinent.Tim F30 330d!
Otherwise, it's pure w

Would you not forgive them the crime of being an anorak on a car forum called pistonheads? Nerds need places to unwind or they'll blurt it all out in the pub!ks by anoraks wanting to be a part of the 'in crowd' who know model designations.

Like your Audi UR quattro that you had listed in your garage?
Why not just call it a Quattro? Or say it's a Mk1? Or put the year? Unless you're 'into' them, you're not going to know what 'ur' means.

Oi! I used to be a Special!!!
(I realise that doesn't necessarily disprove your contention!)
Often wondered what the attraction of being a special actually is? Is it the uniform the power? It's bad enough getting paid to do the job never mind volunteering to do it for free.(I realise that doesn't necessarily disprove your contention!)
