My mother used to tell a story from decades ago: one of her fellow students, a tall blond and blue-eyed German, had a Fiat 500 and would drive it exactly like that. The difference is that he didn't do it for fun.
You're welcome. I'm a bit put off by the Beeb's complete inability to make a documentary about my country without bringing WW2 into it (they could have gone anywhere but Nuremberg), but nevertheless it was an interesting programme.Thank you!
My father once told me a similar story: back in the 80s, one of his friends (a 100 kg, 2 m tall man) needed a beater. Something small, cheap, that get great mileage and can be fixed with bare hands. He bought a 500, removed the front seat and drove it sitting in the rear one.My mother used to tell a story from decades ago: one of her fellow students, a tall blond and blue-eyed German, had a Fiat 500 and would drive it exactly like that.

It's long, but certainly interesting. They've hit several nails on the head; some of the issues they've addressed are currently changing and also vary depending on the region you live in.

Yeah - don't forget they went to Bavaria, the most backward of the German countries. Unfortunately, their tourism marketing is successful enough to make people believe that Bavaria = Germany.The "above average" are a lot more tolerant and don?t oppose women having the same chances like men on the job
