Or Shkoda, if you prefer.
I can’t get my fucking breath. Do these advertising cunts really think that an ad pronouncing Skoda as Shkoda is somehow going to make it more desirable?
What are the management thinking?
This feels like a Bud Lite moment.
Fuck me, Skoda. Pull the ad, blame the office junior for getting carried away but don’t change the name.
It’s a car, not an IKEA Asbo!

Didn’t Hyundai do that same thing 3 years ago?
Skoda’s are that slow, probably just caught up..
Skips on wheels, we called them..

Schoda is owned by VW which has just announced 50,000 redundancies, half of them in Krautland.
Losing business hand over fist to slitty-eyed spymobiles, apparently.
But hey, they can make stupid adverts full of efficks, so that should turn things around.
Deutschland Deutschland uber alles.

I would suggest Geordie that VW in common with all the car makers are being fucked by the politicians not the Chinks. They are being massively financially penalised for selling the cars which the customers want to buy. That’s why buying the right second-hand car now is an investment.

Thanks, BZ I’ve been driving myself mad trying to remember what the other car was.

Only a pretentious cunt would pronounce it Shkoda.
Hyundai tried the very same thing.
Wankers!
But the world is full of pretentious cunts.
They are the ones that pronounce all foreign words using a daft accent.
They try to sound like they actually know more of the language than they really do.
They just sound like idiots.
I spoke to one twat who tried to convince me of the pronunciation of Messi’s first name.
He mistakenly told me that it was pronounced as Lyonel as he was named after Lionel Richie.
I pointed out that Lionel Richie as well as Lionel Messi are both pronounced as Lee-onel in any Spanish speaking country.
He wouldn’t have it.
The cunt.
Good morning.

Like the mainstream news pronouncing Kiev as ‘Keev’, the wankers.
Morning TAC/all.

Like pronouncing Peking “Beijing” or Bombay “Mumbai”, Tom.

I see the mandatory number of assorted wógs have been inserted into the advertising of this motor vehicle.
The shhhtupid fucking cunts.
Good morning.

It’s Schcandalous how they shhiit the cars are. It’s right that they are advertised by dark1ês. The cars are like shkips, which is from what the dark1ês steal.

Morning UT…I notice that you never see a chınk appearing in car advertising. Presumably manufacturers don’t want their cars associated with going 17mph under the speed limit, all 4 wheels curbed and parking scratches and dents on a 6 week old vehicle.

There was that rinky dink who advertised the VW Golf back in the early eighties.
The one where it fell from above to show its supposed strength.
I reckon it was his wife trying to park on the upper floor of a multi story car park and fucking it up.

Morning Unkle.
I’m wondering if the manufacturers are trying to rename them because, due to a preponderance of lips and teeth, the apparent demographic of purchasers have difficulty pronouncing hard consenants, like ‘k’, inni’?
2
I wonder if the cunts who pronounce it as Shkoda also try to do an Indian accent and wobble their heads when ordering in an Indian restaurant.
I have heard people talking to waiters in French restaurants who sound like extras from ‘Ello’ Ello.
Do they order Swee-Sow-Por in Chinese restaurants too?

And use fucking chopsticks.

Now’t more than Volkswagens with different badges. Nothing to get delusions of grandeur about.
When you think about it. After Mercedes, BMW and its own stablemates of Porsche and Audi, Volkswagen is basically Germany’s budget range.
And don’t be fooled by the myth of superior German engineering.
They are basically made with the same cheap, shitty Far Eastern components as everything else.

Had a Czech box now for 5 years a TD Octavia and it’s fucking awesome. Reliable economical and comfortable. Better than those ev boxes the government is trying to enforce on us. Normally I don’t keep a car this long but if it’s not broke

My last company car was a diesel Octavia. It was a very sound car with a couple of well thought out touches, for instance as you signalled to turn right at a roundabout it didn’t cancel the indicator as you turned the wheel to the left on entering the roundabout. Like all modern cars it was loaded with toys that got in the way. As delivered the stupid thing would scream in terror and display various messages which implied we were about to die when driven normally. Fortunately most of it could be switched off. Last week I entered its number in the MOT check website. 18 reg it has no gaps in its history and when last tested had covered 283,000 miles.

A few months ago whilst having lunch with a couple of Lady Guzzi’s friends I mentioned Dacia . Like most normal people I pronounced it Daysia ,the cunt husband of Lady Guzzi’s friend said “ it is pronounced Dachia “.I replied “ Who gives a fuck ?” The ensuing silence was wonderful.
We haven’t seen them since.

Don’t drive …so they can pronounce it how they like, the European car industry is on its knees with all the Fun Manchu’s on the road now, names like byd,omoda,jaecoo etc that are made ‘not’ to last 😖…the spies on wheels are 👀 your every move…in-skwute-able 🥢🐲

I still remember with affection my 1998 Spankie-Wankie SUV from Taiwan.

Once you have seen the fuckwittery of the Haribo ads with children;s voice, nothing else seems quite so bad – even the “bulky pee pads” one. The same principle that, bad as he is, after Motherfucker Starmer , Burnham doesn’t seem quite so intolerable
1
Well, the advert is all wrong, the first line should have been ‘where did you nick that Shhhhhhkoda’
It’s false advertising, no self respecting spoon would be seen (shot through the windscreen) in a Skoda.

History shows that tweaking the pronunciation of a name for a bit of popularity or exclusivity often doesn’t work.
David Coulthard got all sniffy about his name at the height of his limited F1 prowess, by asking interviewers to employ ‘th’ in the middle of his surname, rather than a ‘t’.
He spent the rest of his career as a team number two.
Sir Menzies Campbell insisted he was actually called Menghis and failed utterly. (Admittedly not difficult in the Lib Dem’s).
And Pilchards are now pronounced Cornish Sardines, and still no fucker buys them.

And also.
Pronouncing Saxe-Coburg Gotha as Windsor doesn’t mean you’re not German.

Was the new naming of the car something Sean Connery had in mind before he popped his clogs ?

Years ago I wanted to find out where the belts were in a Chinese shop.
I asked the Chink assistant for the ‘cinturónes’. (pronounced with a hard ‘o’).
She told me that it’s pronounced ‘cinteron’
A fucking Chink trying to tell me how to speak my own language!
I told her that no it fucking isn’t and she spoke Spanish like a monkey.
