Buster,
Last I checked, England was included in EVERY list of British nations.
Therefore "LBC" is NOT a misnomer. It is possible that "LEC" could
be considered more precise, but it certainly is NOT the standard
designation.
If you really want to refer to your Little British Car as a Lousy English
Crapmobile,
be my guest, but mine will continue to be called an LBC ;-)
