I did believe (2) but was proved wrong because I didn't realise how strong the Chinese market was and how good the Germans would be at selling into it.Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostOur very own "expert" sasguru stated that:

In any case, the Euro drag is affceting Germany, latest figures for them aren't that great.
