Silly question or not?
Is a car built in Portsmouth and the McLaren Technology Centre in Woking, Surrey, England, a German car?

Well, there's two badges on it; McLaren and Mercedes Benz.. But the Benz badges are bigger and more numerous. It must be German.

AM is owned by chaps from Prodrive, but Mini is definitely BMW

ps: the new Minis are all showing a German flag but built in England, would they count as German cars as well?

The new Mini is an all German car now, it is owned by BMW, Land Rover is owned by BMW too but Land Rover still an English car.

I was under the impression the bigger the turbo, the better :lol:
 
For the sake of simplicity, I'd say the best bet is to go by the company's original founding location. Aston may be co-owned by Prodrive and Kuwaiti investors, Mini by BMW, and Land Rover by Tata (not BMW, for over a decade now), but they were all initially formed in Britain :)

I would still see the flag hoisted for the car as in the game would be easier to follow.👍

Land Rover hasn't been owned by BMW for 10 years now. It was owned by Ford for a while and now it is owned by Indian Tata.

P.S. I wouldn't consider the Mini German either, it is made in England for the most part. It is also a long lived British brand.
 
I should probably end this discussion as i started it, everybody shhh about Minis and Astons:).

@Evolvedsoul its all about the supercharger:D
 
FINAL ENTRY

Forza Italia !




i'll try with my current wallpaper.​
