Tongue-in-cheek

Sir,

I thought you and your readers would be amused with a recent advertising campaign being broadcast on Los Angeles radio stations for the British Leyland Triumph TR7: “The Triumph TR7, the shape of things to come, designed in a country where highways have a 70 m.p.h. speed limit.” I only wonder what Porsche or BMW have to say about that!
