Unpleasant alliteration
Yesterday I came across this Czech sentence for a pick-up service for people who have had one or two drinks too many at bars, restaurants and the like (a tipsy tow, as you can see on several web sites): Odvezeme vás a váš vůz. (We will take you and your car). The grammar is fine, but there are two many v's in this short sentence. I think it would be better if it were Odvezeme vás a vaše auto.
