VP asked: "So you do not want to buy a discounted Merc?"

I scrapped my last car in March 2001, have been using a bicycle ever since. When I need a car I rent one. I am looking for a folding bike at a discount if you know of one. Made anywhere but Germany.

Are we starting an Official CF Boycott German Goods campaign ... ???

Which car brands are European, but not German?

I can only think of Volvo...

“It won’t happen in other countries because their banking industries aren’t as unbalanced as in Cyprus,” Dijsselbloem told Dutch lawmakers in The Hague today, referring to the size of the financial sector compared with gross domestic product.

ok here we go:
Cyprus- 755%
Malta- 799%
Ireland- 839%
Luxembourg- 2572%

And lets not forget that financial disaster
Monaco- 2417%

Ah, but Luxembourg is okay as it is stuffed with bug European banks - not private banks like ours... and probably stuffed with Dijsselbloem's bank account too...

It seems that Germany may be gunning for Luxembourg, too, if the following is anything to go by:

In the German media we saw allegations today that Luxembourg has a questionable business model when it comes to its financial sector. The author indeed compares deposits in banks to the Luxembourg GDP. And comes to the conclusion that the Luxembourg financial sector is totally oversized.

Renault, Peugot-Citroen, Fiat, Jaguar-land Rover, then one has Nissan, Honda and Toyota who build cars in Europe, as does Vauxhall in the UK, as a subsidiary of the US General Motors Corp.

BTW I might be on the lookout for a car quite soon, and if so I'll be keeping my eye out for the VW/Audi 1.6 Tdi that I assume some will flogging off -might get a bargain.

But the French f*cked us too. Jaguar... . Vauxhall=OPEL

OK, maybe FIAT is a good option (not really).

Not bad!

Some time ago when asked to name European motorcycles you came up with Galaxy, Bounty, and Snickers!

Andreas Artemis, the chairman of the Bank of Cyprus, has resigned.

According to the Turkish Cypriot press this is not because he feels responsible for what happened, but because he is miffed that he was not consulted in advance about the haircut!

Most children in Cyprus are overweight anyway. Also In Cyprus they can get by eating wild horta and they can grow beans did 1923 Germany have beans? Cyprus will have a gas bonanza. Worst case scenario people can always start eating their own children.
