Yes, this is one of my pet peeves. The Royal family (which the truth be known (& told) is really more GERMAN than British) favoring German bloody vehicles over OUR British heritage.
Yes, I understand & appreciate with deep sorrow that ALL of OUR iconic automotive brands, i.e., ‘Rolls Royce/Bentley’, ‘Jaguar‘, ‘Land Rover’, are now, alas & alak, foreign owned. But, these names & others, e.g., ‘Morris Garage’ (MG), ‘Triumph’, ‘Aston Martin’, are still very British & evoke pride & patriotism.
Self-centered, spoilt, arrogant, out-of-touch Charles of Tampongate has no business or right to be seen driving a damn German car. Disgrace, but then again he is nothing but a total, unmitigated disaster. #NotMyKind — for sure, for sure.
He used to ponce around in an ‘Aston Martin DB2‘. Now, that was class & that was before he became Charles of Tampongate.
I don’t get it. We are NOT (THANKFULLY) not a part of the EU anymore. There is no rationale or justification for his driving a German bloody car other than his stupidness. It is NOT right. It is a travesty. It is a disgrace. It just isn’t cricket.
The Queen, when in the U.K., was invariably in a ‘British’ vehicle — she particularly fond of Land- & Range-Rovers.
This was NOT right.
In 2018, after the ‘Harry & Meghan‘ wedding I wrote the The Palace to complain that the William & Harry had arrived in Windsor in the Mercedes van. I asked the Palace to make sure that this would not happen again. They did reply in a letter.
