Oh yes they do! Oh yes they do! The Toll Licence holder is only 'renting' the right to charge you for using the road. It's still legally the Queens Highway and all the RT Act applies. Andy

…no taxes to pay Thats right, as it's within EU there are no charges, VAT or Duty to pay. Andy

…but ze Germans have a cunning plan Ze Germans have a cunning plan, their cars have to use snow tyres in the winter. On these, a Merc has no problems in the snow. Andy

…so why the scooter? What I should have said there Norman was that it was a 'good job' that the BV's are as good on sand as snow as they spend so little time up north now :-) BTW What's an ex-Royal want with a scooter? Your letting the Corp down, a Harley Davidson surely! All the best...

… good point Sym Good point there Sym, I've found that to be the case as well. As regards sending money to Germany a few things to bear in mind. I've done a fair bit of buying in/outside ebay in Germany and a numbers of things came to light. The reason they usually ask for money...

… yep, work for them The new Viking is rather swish, the .50 Machine gun is just the job for road rage incidents. Mind you most of the Marines BV's seem to spend their time swanning around the Middle East. They're just as good on sand as snow. Andy

…oh yesssssss! Georgeous car! Sex on Wheels! 6 numbers and I'm there! Enjoy!! Big Time! Andy

… but I can't do manuals Me too, but I can't do manuals anymore, leg trouble. :-( Andy

… common? If you want 'common' try Germany, Umpteen Thousand E Class Taxis can't be wrong! A Mercedes may be common but I think Lexus's (or is it Lexii), tend to be a bit vulgar, just check out the number with the gold plated badge/trim option… yuck! It's noticible that the Japanese...

… happy birthday! Happy birthday Kinky! Have a great one and best wishes for the (non shiney grey) year ahead! Andy Sorry about that guys… slipped up there and used that very offensive 'S' word, it's late ;-P

Cars are getting too smart If I remember rightly, Multiplex wiring is were they use some wires in the wiring loom as a data link, bit like the system Merc use in the bigger/newer ones. Mess with the wiring and the Computer thinks there's a fault and the car won't go! Moral of the story…...

… Well 'ard northern one! It must be one of those well 'ard northern mozzies! Our Southern ones are too soft to come out before Easter. Andy

… I'll pass on this one Nah, I'll pass on this one, no room for the shopping. I'll wait till they bring out the estate version ;-P Andy
