My mate was forever calling my car a 'Subureau', as in bureau de change!
I told him he was no longer worthy of being my friend
Combine that with my Dad's pronunciation and I am constantly finding myself driving a Subureau Imprezza
Don't worry - I have put them straight!

We all say impreza here (actually they're more commonly refered to as "wrx's"). I reckon it sounds funny with the "t" in it.

The Soobaru one sounds like the way it's pronounced in New Zealand - when the other half came back from there a few years ago she'd picked up on this and that stuck for a while. She brought me home an Autotrader, some very nice motors.
Cheers,
Sue Baroo.
