Yes, you can almost see it, people will replace their Merc Bmw Audi and the rest with hmm Allard mk3.

Onwards and upwards, we are going to finance all that with export of FS to Brazil and Argentina.

A nice Aston Martin wouldn't go amiss on my drive.

I've owned lots of different makes of car, current one is Japanese, Japanese spec too, goes like stink.

Not sure that the answer to not buying German cars is to buy British ones. If tariffs are imposed on German imports people are free to make a choice of many other cars.

I know, I drive a Japanese car that had an import tariff applied to it.

Would that be a second hand one which due to jap tax laws has reached a residual value that makes it very attractive to import to UK - plus its RHD? Or e.g. new GTR etc. that has the tariff applied anyway even if you buy from Nissan UK - only EU made Nissans are tariff free.

Neither.

I bought it the last time the world was going to end financially January 2009 from someone with your doom and gloom attitude, and despite putting 80K miles on it since, it would still sell for £2K more than I paid for it at the time.

what is a snom phone- surely they don't mean 'some' phones. A couple of points. Videophone would never make an announcement containing such drivel as, 'hey guys, some of our stuff will be priced higher'. It's a fake. Added the terrible spelling and grammar.

That is indeed very good news, not sure why ajd is not going to be happy about that.

maybe it is because of their unwavering search for negativity and will never accept, now or in the future, despite the possibility of great prosperity, that we made the right decision. Every great achievement for the next 100 million years will be 'in spite' of Brexit and every drama will be 'due to' Brexit.

Erm it's a screenshot of my email from one of our suppliers who we've dealt with for many years.

It's 'voipfone' not videophone.

Snom is a German manufacturer of office phones

Not sure what the problem with their grammar and spelling is. More a comprehension fault on behalf of he reader in this case.

Well it'll make a change from every good thing before the vote being 'in spite' of the EU and every bad thing being 'due to' the EU as was said so many times.

the £ has dropped 3% against the euro compared to its low in June pre the Brexit vote, its currently at the same rate we had January 2014.

Someone at your suppliers is taking the piss.

You don't seem to understand that those suppliers and manufacturers while being in EU still pay for a lot of stuff in USD.

Expectation of where the £ will go from here is a lot more relevant than where it is now.

If you actually believe that people are taking the piss, it seems that an awful lot of companies are currently taking the piss.

Absolutely - the "negatives" will soon be along to tell you but......

The currency play has always been there.

I didn't write the email.

The email said the £ has dropped 10% against the Euro post Brexit.

It hasn't.

Surely the first day lesson is learn to read what is written in a document and don't change that to something you would prefer it had stated.

Exactly, but it did not suit a certain negative agenda.

UK growth in the last quarter higher than analysts expected.

Strongest quarter of growth in industrial production since 1999.
