My favorites out of the list are Gepard, Strassendime especially since my first MB, (62 190Dc) was der (das?) Strassenlaunfer (never could quite figger out how to spell it. It was supposed to be translation of roadrunner. Seems appropriate since it went through a charity auction and 3 dealers before I ended up with it. Panzerwels Rotluchs and why didn't I think of the obvious, Panzer?
I already call the dumb cat, teeger (Tiger), katze or just Dumb Cat so all those are out. What is the correct pronunciation of these? Strassendeemuh? Sounds kindalike Strassenbeemer Could confuse Beemer types from the East. GePARD? Panzervells? Rotlukes?
