I really hope it's not!!! The second one looks PS, but the first one is prolly real.

This was posted in JW before, so I think the C-Class is a "updated" version of this car

It is what we call a 'catch 22' situation (I dont know if you have the same expression in Spain)

Not really much you can do, but I still think we shouldnt let them get away with it. Just my $0.02 worth

they don't care if you don't want to trade with them. there are many other countries who are willing. like australia are always cautious coz we rely on them, not the other way

It's actually not a catch-22.

A catch-22 has to be self-cancelling. Doing it prevents it from happening. Seeing as it comes from a very popular novel, there's no reason why they wouldn't have it Spain
