When you look at some of the prices TT tat and other GS bits go for, I do wonder if there's a recession in Germany.

Me too, my car has started to misbehave so I've started to look about for a replacement. Check out the difference in prices for S/h cars on www.autoscout24.de and autotrader, you'd think we were on a different plannet. Bike prices also firm.

So buy a car in the UK and claim on German insurance

Sorry, I forgot you will need to put a distance in the criteria for "Umkreis" and for "PLZ" you'll need a post code. 50679 will work which is an address in the centre of Cologne. For bikes, you can either use motorad in Suchen & Finden or go directly to www.motoscout24.de .

Thought of that but steering wheel on the wrong side will punish me as I use a lot of underground carparks with special passes to get in. OK when you have a pillion but on your own its a pain in the butt to get out everytime. Also headlight swap required. Looked into it, not worth the hastle.
