This may provide you with an English version of Google, but this alone
does not ensure that it is the same Google that you would have reached
had you resolved www.google.com in the US and connected from a US-based
IP address.

If you do not believe me, you need only look at the gratuitous links to
the "standard" local search option corresponding to your exit node.  You
need only make a search to find that the advertisements (if not the
results!) are tailored to the local region corresponding to your exit
node.
