There IS one European manufacturer whose product is an order of magnitude worse than everyone else's (according to the Automobile Association, the biggest operators ot tow trucks in the UK), but it's not French (look further south-east). All the other manufacturer's products on sale in the UK are pretty close, even the Japs (although of course Nissan are now run by Renault, and Toyota and the PSA group are just about to build a car together in eastern Europe). Go back 10-15 years and you would be absolutely right. Sadly, us Brits have a far worse record, and precious little British-owned motor industry remains. I'll not comment on the US auto industry or their products for fear of clogging too much bandwidth..... ;) Anyway, linking this topic back to phoography, Rolls Royce always said when asked that their cars had "sufficient" power. I would say that Leicas likewise have sufficient technology. Who really needs more? Nick - --- Jerry Lehrer <jerryleh@pacbell.net> wrote: > Nick > > Designing them? Yes.
