    Maybe instead of "car" they should call it a "scarab"

    especially as it sounds like it was designed by an "arab"

    hang on - someone's nicked my coat!

    That's a coincidence. For last night I was reading Aristophanes' Peace, in which the protagonist rides to heaven on a giant dung beetle.
