This one is average - better than my last but not as good as my next.

Austin Healey, circa 1967.

I hate doing spokes, which is why I do them.
That is, I find them difficult, so I practice doing them.
Pleased you like.

What does that foreign stuff mean please?

I didn't know either, but Google came to the rescue (kind of...):

About as much use as a chocolate teapot.

"je ne sais quois" = "A quality or attribute that is difficult to describe or express"

Very nice Austin Healey. I remember seeing a few around town back in '67.

Ah, right. In other words, I rendered him speechless.

Those Healeys are very nice, yup.
That's another car I haven't got.
In fact, I think I haven't got more cars than most people.

Well, Raymond, I like the highlights and the shadows, you got one under the car. Well, hooey!

L'automobile, ce n'est pas Americaine, n'est-ce pas?

Americans don't know how to make a cute small car and keep it small. They scale it down and then in another couple of years it is about as big and nasty as every.

Keep drawing small cars, then I can't find anything to find wrong about them. Where's the cutie on the seat?
