Now the taxes are based on the power and weight of the car. Which still continues to be high since AMG's are high power engines, and Mercedes' in general weigh a lot.

I always go through the Vosges from Mulhouse to Epinal then Nancy, Bar-le-Duc and hit the autoroute just before Reims. Takes me around 6hr30 from Basel to Calais and is a lot shorter than the full autorute way. I have done the Luxemberg Belgium route when going to Dunkerque before. In this case I cut the corner instead of going around Strassborg. Saves 40km

If you want to swap ur licence and have it for the 27th you'd better pull ur finger out and get down the Strassenverkehrsamt asap. I don't think you'll have enough time to get the new one back.

I always like to be tailgated, but the experience is even more enjoyable when it’s snowing and visibility is poor. It reassures me to have someone inches off my rear bumper, because it means that I’m sure you can see me. What a small world! I get the same warm and fuzzy feelings from fellow drivers on small, curvy and snowy roads in Graubünden
