I assume you meant painful too?Originally Posted by Gayle
On average, even allowing for the exchange rate, we pay around three times what you guys pay for stuff like cars etc. We have 1/10th the population, live miles from the rest of the world and have traditionally had very high import tariffs. In fact back in the days when E34's were new I think import tariffs on imported luxury cars were approaching something like 80%. So you could say we get stiffed when buying stuff over here. BMW parts from the local stealers can be up to 8x what you guys pay!
But don't we just love putting money in the pockets of these thieves... NOT!!!
