Yes Vaughant, more than rather 60 % of the cars are mercedes(and the latest models of them including many brabus and amg). In my town, when some one is going to buy a new car is used to say: what model of mercedes are u buying? they are sure that you going to buy a mercedes. But they used to buy only mercedes because the roads here were in very bad condition some years ago and the mercedes was the only car that supported them. Now all the country is connected with modern motorways and highways but the idea is still fixed. Thank you again for your patient and good explanations.
Psycho warren, i think that every country has this category of people and you can not identify the whole country by these little group of people. Ive been in london, woodgreen and i sow living conditions worst than here. But it is not said that hole england is like that. My be you meet the wrong people

and may be this happened years before.
Anyway even if this is true i think you have to appreciate them because they are doing jobs that no Englishman accepts to do. I dont know if you are familiar with the literature but if you have the opportunity read please what Lord Byron wrote about us many years ago. LOL, i see we are far away from our theme now. I wish you guys all the best and enjoy your west production Fords.
