Greeks and Italians

[Rolly]

Do greeks and Italians who live in Greece and Italy all drive holdens and fords that are lowered and have tinted windows like greeks and italians that live in Australia do ?

Not sure about the answer to your question, but they certainly don't have holdens in Europe, I think holden is owned by General Motors who in Europe own Vauxhall and Opel, so perhaps they'd all be in souped up Vauxhall Vivas!

You're correct about Holden Moog, but they normally bigger bodied thna our Vauxhalls. Anyway when I've been in Greece the cars don't look as if the owners cared enough to soup them up

Too young to remember purple Valiants & pompoms, huh?

The only Valiant I remember was a 1950's Vauxhall that was too big for the engine in standard form but that was in the Antipodes. Don't know about the pompoms more like fox tails from the aerial

absolutly not - they drive red camaros with italian horns hanging from the rear view mirror.

OK I've got to ask - what's an Italian horn? and as an aside how big's their rear view mirrors!!

Everyone knows that Italians drive hairdryer mopeds with no helmets. Greeks drive like lunatics and I have never seen a greek driven car going slow enough to identify it. And you can't get Holdens in Europe. Well, not very often anyway. I've never seen one

I am from Italy and I find your question a bit prejudiced - or what is meant to be facetious? I have never seen the kind of car you describe in Italy (or even in Greece when I visited, for that matter). When I lived in Italy, Italian cars (Fiat, Lancia and Alfa Romeo) were the most popular cars.
