Re: Anybody watched Das Auto: The Germans, Their Cars and Us
agreed. valid points raised and highlighted but i thought the program was supposed to be about what the Germans had done right rather than give the British car industry a right good kicking into the bargain.
We all know by now what went wrong but to use this 1 hour special to self deprecate was shameful. I want a refund on my TV licence

Re: Anybody watched Das Auto: The Germans, Their Cars and Us
Thanks for posting that up Charles.
From a historical point of view they could have mentioned Rovers links with Honda and the launch of the 75.
Informative but sad.
