Will the Germans really all start buying Japanese cars?

Or the french?

The French might, they've absolutely no taste in the design department.

Sometimes I wonder if any of you fu<kwits have a brain - just because you have a trade deal it does not mean it will add value.

Did Brexitier just accuse others of not having a brain?

Finally you understand what the remain camp were talking about. Brexit have been going on about getting a trade deal with the EU because "the EU will be desperate to deal with us". The EU will happily sign a trade deal if it has been negotiated well, but that doesn't force them to buy anything from the UK.

Glad you're on board now and finally understand that you made a mistake supporting the idea of leaving.

The EU accepted any terms just to attempt to get one over on the UK. The hatred of anyone who attempts to leave outweighs all else. Its hotel paranoia.

FTFY

The French (Renault) already own Nissan and PSA have major ties with Toyota and Mitsubishi

Will the Germans really all start buying Japanese cars?

They already do, but they're currently manufactured in the UK.

Guess where they´ll be coming from in the future. One wonders if the UK might have put a brake on that had they decided not to leave.

Does the EU-Jap deal have FOM and ECJ strings attached?

Dispute resolution is through a supranational arbitration panel, so it would not fly with leavers who insist that English courts should have power over foreign countries in any FTA signed by the UK post-Brexit. Something about sovereignty for the UK but not for others.

It's better to have no deal, than a bad deal, remember?

Only if no deal means reverting to status quo, as it usually means in dealmaking.

So like the Canada deal then.

The Canada agreement includes elements of FOM for providing services.

BMW Mini. Made in Oxford. For now.

Except for those that are made in the Netherlands, such as nearly all new models.

Din't May just provide Japanese car manufacturers assurances?

Yes. She told them that "deal that will work for everyone means a deal that will work for everyone".
