8 car brand with each other meaning

Each country,own languages when we interpret words to words  from every language comes out lot of funny things. As a continuation from my blog yesterday I have some car brand name that I have read from newspaper here. Check it out and hope you may enjoy reading. I will ask excuses if there are some words that does not fit at all. Everything in the list is from the source : sportinformation.com Automotorsport.se och Wikipedia
  1. Mazda Laputa.  Mazda is an Island in the book "Gullivers Travels" a novel written by Jonathan Swift year 1726. But the words La puta means different in Spanish  "whore" if we translate it in english.
  2. Mitsubishi Pajero: the name was taken from (cat animal) Leopardus pajeros which find in Argentina,but in Spain they change the  name into  Montero.Why because Pajero means masturbate.
  3. Nissan Moco: Moco means "bogey"in Spanish(an evil en other words). At the other side not necessary to change name because this type of car only sales out in Japan.
  4. Buick Lacrosse: I never heard this type of car before but hmmm interesting for me. I don't drive and nor own a car way back in my passed so it explained a lot why. Anyway Lacrosse has been a type of ritual warfare among the American and American Indian(Native American). But it means masturbate In Frensh language specially in Quebec(in Eastern part of Canada).
  5. Chevrolet Nova. No va means"It doesn't work"in Spanish.
  6. Opal Ascona. get the name after an area in Switzerland,but in North side of Spain och Portugal also called slang to a woman's sex organ. 
  7. Dodge Swinger. Swinger is so familiar slang to a married couple who applying the changing of partner.
  8. Honda Fitta. The car get lucky to have a name Jazz in Europe. In Japan the name is really Fit. But Fitta was the origin name and according to legend presented then first with advertise print"small outside but spacious inside".
Thank you for reading guys...
