Ingo ◊ 2010-02-14 13:32	I cannot see the Ford-plum, so probably Mercury.
929V6 ◊ 2010-02-14 13:42	Mercury Sable, for sure (wraparound windows)

Ingo ◊ 2010-02-14 15:55	taxiguy wrote What??? Oh, perhaps this is only used in German. The Ford-logo is sometimes called "Pflaume" - "plum", as the fruit.
Lateef ◊ 2010-02-14 15:58	Here we use "Ford-oval" or "Ford-logo", but I really don't see any links between the fruit and the logo, both the shape and the colour are off to me.
Ingo ◊ 2010-02-14 16:05	Maybe correctly it should be damson-plum, which in German is named Zwetschge. But normally the people are saying Pflaume to it, too.
taxiguy ◊ 2010-02-14 17:20	Hmmm... didn't know that it was ever compared to a plum.
