Thing is their diesel in Europe offerings were far from stellar reliability wise. I seriously looked into used gasoline Toyota but found out many engines had a gasket issue. In the end I bought a Renault, knowing that it might have issues b

What is the deal with Toyota? They never really sold a lot of cars here in Europe, but used beaten up Toyota are worth their weight of gold. It seems like a cult. Every manufacturer is capable of making quality cars, you just have to choose

Sahara solar panel project is a good idea, the problem is the location. There is no way that France can rely on Algeria, algerian leaders are still today blaming France for the problems they are facing now, it is so tiresome. Marocco or Tun

Pedestrians in the UK need to wait until all traffic are red, then they can cross the junction (even diagonally). This is indeed different from continental Europe, as a pedestrian I kinda preferred the system in the UK, but you could wait q

Definitely not in Europe, EuroNCAP added a pedestrian test a few years ago, and the test forced automakers to change their design for pedestrians in mind. https://www.euroncap.com/en/vehicle-safety/the-ratings-expl

Well it is quite easy actually. Your biggest customer request a bunch of features, some for test purposes. You find something fishy, you ask your boss and he tells you orally to just do it because this customer is the most important, or he

It is the same in France, but they are still powerless because they are not present on the company's board unlike Germany. In France it is only the government owned companies who can strike, strikes in private companies are rare. It on

I think you are the one telling stories to yourself. According to you, Concorde was created to tie the UK to the EEC, which UK was not part of. May I remind you that the EEC membership was proposed to the UK and they flatly refused. Later w

The same law has been passed in France where a union's deal can bypass the law (totally crazy idea to be honest). And these deals happen exactly like you described, except that workers are threatened by factory closure. For example it

How on earth would that happen? It will just be as expensive in Europe as in the US. You really think that nobody outside the US are making drugs? Like no drugs are ever developed in Europe??

787 is smaller and came sooner than the a350, it fits nicely between the a330 and a350. The a350 is competing against the 777 I would say. Boeing better estimated the widebody market than Airbus, but they lately have a problem with implemen

Say sorry, why not, but demanding to pay back I don't understand. It is not the same people in power nor the same population, why should they pay for their parents? It is preposterous. And where do you stop with this logic, neolithic?

I live in a brick house in Europe, and my plumbing and wire do run in the walls. I just cut the wall, run my wires inside and cover with plaster.
