Five Englishmen in an Audi Quattro arrived at an Northern Irish border checkpoint. Paddy the officer stops them and tells them: "It is illegal to put 5 people in a Quattro, Quattro means four"

"Quattro is just the name of the automobile," the Englishman retorts disbelievingly. "Look at the papers: this car is designed to carry five persons."

"You cannot pull that one on me," replies Paddy "Quattro means four. You have five people in your car and you are therefore breaking the law."

The Englishman replies angrily, "You idiot! Call your supervisor over. I want to speak to someone with more intelligence!"

"Sorry," responds Paddy, "Murphy is busy with 2 guys in a Fiat Uno."

Excuse me, Mr I'm-A-Moderator, I believe that this joke has been told before - right here.

It might have been delivered fairly poorly, granted, but it's still there.

Joke stealer. :grumpy:

I didn't even look, truth be told. Somebody emailed it to me and I slapped it up here right away.

My Bad.
 
Isn't it meant to be an Italian traffic cop? What with Uno being Italian for 1, and Quattro being Italian for 4?

Only the Italians could get away with naming a car "four door" and having it sound sexy...
 
None taken. I'm proud to be Irish! (Although I've always wanted green eyes...perfect with red hair...) Heck, my name actually means "Beatuiful girl" in Irish. But anyways.................
