Sharing economic strategic information with the UK? So that their ruling class can forward it to pedophile billionaire spooks?

I say the EU doesn't need that type of friend.

Also, which public entity is going to go to BMW for procurements? Their civil servants need sports car to go to their meetings?

The police for example. Being somewhat fast is useful in some cases and most BMW cars are sedans as well, which make for a good base for police cars.

Do people really think of BMW as a manufacturer of sports cars? To me they've always been more like luxury boats. But then again, I'm a car brain so I have a bit different view of car manufacturers than the average person

Well obviously. But do people think of them as sports cars for the pricks or luxury cars for the pricks? I've always thought the latter. But like I said, I'm a car brain so I dunno what the normal people think.
