Down here in the south everyone I know has been saying 10-9-8 ... it's too American to say "ten ninety-eight" like they used to say "nine sixteen" Urgh!

Nick, take yourself outside and administer yourself a beating.

It's the first time a model designation has reached 4 numerals, so we're running with the ten!

in Italy it's the, one thousand and ninety eight, but there again it does sound better as "mille e novantotto", remember a journalist saying that pretty much anything said in Italian sounds cooler.

to be fair i have been saying "dieci e novantotto" to my pa but their again i don't live in Italy.
