Yes.

Apart from that, I'll only say that I would have thought the least I could expect from prolific puzzlers as yourselves was that you didn't ask already answered questions.

I don't know about you but I can't and will never consider Russia as an European country. Some part, geographically, is in the European continent. But like 75% is in Asia. And since we all live in a democracy (at least I do... ;D), the majority wins so, it's Asian for me...  :P

Post by: ImpishGrin on December 03, 2008, 11:47:26 AM
If the majority wins, then it's Europe, seeing as some 70% of russian population is in Europe ;)

In reality though, most Russians I know state that they're not Europe and they're definitely not Asia. They're Russia :D

I have never before heard of anybody who calls Russia an Asian country. I would consider it mainly European, as it traditionally is firmly linked, geographically and politically, to Eastern Europe, and as its capital lies firmly within what is normally, by most, considered the borders of Europe. The most common definition of Europe's easterly border is the Ural mountains - which would mean that almost 50% of Russia, even geographically, is European.

If that doesn't answer your question: No, it's not from a Russian manufacturer...

50% of Russia is in Europe. But Russia is too almost 50% of Asia... Whatever...

Nonetheless, maybe American?

I give up. Now you can't even keep track of which questions you have asked yourself...  ???

Post by: Joao Gois on December 04, 2008, 04:39:08 AM
Yeah, indeed...  :-[ Needed some good night sleep. But I'm back nonetheless!
Ok. It's not european nor american but still a known builder. Asian then, I guess?
Title: Re: What car #517

It seems a good night's sleep was what you needed. Your assumption is correct!
