Very rarely have to say it........I just point and smile:capricorn:

I'm with you on the pointing. When I was at the ferrari day at silverstone in the summer I parked my car opposite a
Mclaren MP4 i was having a look around it a man came over and pretended to get in it and looked at me and said I'm only joking. I said I wish aswell. He proceeded to walk to his what I could only describe as a box and said this is what I drive which was parked next to my GS. I said pointing at my car that's mine -- laughing he said yea alright as I then unlocked it. He's face was a picture.

I left my kids (teens) in the back of mine in a supermarket car park once. Apparently a man was wandering round the car looking at it and didn't notice the boys inside (my rear windows are tinted). He was saying to his children what a lovely car it was and how whoever owned it clearly didn't have kids. It was only when he looked inside that he saw my goons sat in the back grinning like idiots! Another face like a picture. :smile:

Sorry for high jacking this post. But the point is you don't need to say anything just point and smile. As we own maserati cars.

It's Maser - at - tee, always has been and always will be. You softy southerners need to learn to speak correctly.

Ideally, of course, you just start the bugger and no one can hear a **** word anyway. The point should, in ideal circumstances, be moot.

I choose the same pronunciation method from the movie "Inglorious Basterds"
Thumb and forefinger have to be pinched together!

I am half Italian and fluent speaker, breaking it down it is:

MASER-RAH-TEE

E in Italian is pronounced A and I is E
