Citron Yellow paint?

Post by Paul-R »

Does this mean that I will not be able to make a valid reference to the old British Leyland paintwork colour of Citron (that's C i t r o n) Yellow? :lol:

Oh dear, what did I start? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks chaps.

On the subject of strange pronunciations, a young man who orders parts for my car always calls it an Ex-antia instead of Xantia.

On the continong, do Greeks and Andalucians call them Chantias (with the ch as in a scots loch)?

Hmmm... it appears even they can't agree on that one, they use eBay several places on the site but the logo seems to be ebaY.
