Default How Well Do You Know Your Cars?

I got passed this at work today and thought it may be some good fun for on here(admin put it in muppet room if u think it should be in there but i thought it would be harmless in here! )
Right they are cryptic clues that relate to well known makes and models of cars... (some of them i havent got yet )

A river crossing a road
FOUR!!!!
First Half: Italy 1- England 0
The Leader of the Shakesperian Lovers
Tearful, drunken speech
To get out of the way
Somebody who doesnt know that words to a song
This car wouldnt be out of place in a pantry
A flowery car which brings inner peace
Mark Green has his own private number plate on every car
Its not the size that counts!
"Sandwiches your lordship?"
Use on to "Take the weight off your feet"
A Victory!
To roam around the country side
To provide for a thin slice of pigs
The flux capacitator wasnt avaliable on the road going version of this car
This british car is a wild cat on the road
The rear between April & June
This car is always positive, unlike a neutron
This car is always trust worthy
Game point in tennis with no additions
At least this car is better than the failed soap opera
"Blimey, Aimal Doctor!!"
This Ferrari is in the zone
This sounds like a type of transport for an Indian tribe
This Itallian super car is often used in street performers acts
This top shelf magazine will make sure you get there
This certainly wont be driven around by any round heads
Mystic Megs idea car missing its logical side though
Cats voicing their contentness on stage
Is it a car or a name for mans best friends
Sounds like the place you may find this busy tailed creature
This crooked medow will cost a pretty penny
Could be an Itallian betting man
This people carrier would fit in perfect in Essex
Waters not water without oxygen
How you might hear HillBillys say 'Hello'
This little french number sounds zesty
Fix It Again Tony!
Is this a car, or sage and onion stuffing?
Concentrate!
A car from a place "Far, Far Away!"
A picturesque car
This car has been know to "Go Banana's!"

also i think the way its in capitals means its been shouted and the punctuation means it has been exclaimed

why not just write 4 or Four ??????

i could be massivly wrong here but seeing how they spelt capacitor, i think it could just be a spell error
