I should have expected this. The Haynes Workshop
Manual lists some 80 words/terms which have a
different meaning between Europe and US! Examples:-

Europe                                   US
======                                ====
Wheel Nut                          Lug Nut

Bulkhead                             Firewall

Drop Head Coupe              Convertible! ( this may
                                      cause more discusion)

Haynes does not list L.H. so.......
