Is it false ?

I have told "after the new member Romania" (that nobody wanted in the community, but unfortunately now we have also them) .
Yes it is false. At least as judged by GDP. Quality of life, general happiness and level of pollution (outside the pits that is Athens) perhaps a different classification altogether.

Disclaimer: I am neither Romanian nor Greek, and I most definitely do not want a set of 545i front brakes (amongst other things, they would not fit a 535d!)

I think you can't evaluate life quality with a schedule

Fit, they fit on all 5 and 6 series . And maybe also on the 7 series .

No, that's exactly what I mean. GDP tells you how rich people are. But personally, I think people in Mediterranean countries enjoy - on average - a greater QoL than people in "rich" Scandinavia or Northern Europe. If you agree, that would put Greece even further up the list.

Stop joking, send me a PM when you have decided what to do for the brakes .
I'm not joking, my decision is constant.
You already know, that a well known to you member here, is looking for a person in Milano to do the pick-up.
I'm trying to find a solution about a specific problem of yours, not mine.

...don't force me to disturb you, by PMs
I will PM you when I'll be informed.

If you are in a hurry and you have found someone to buy them, earlier than me, then, I don't want to be obstacle in your business.
We made an arrangement but not a contract.

Just let me know, not to attempt, engage unknown to me people, without any real reason.

OK guys, I really hate to chime in, but I feel the need to do so...


First of all I have to show this:

Name:  gelb.gif
Views: 25
Size:  1.2 KB

This is for EVERYBODY involved here...


The situation is pretty easy.

Alex wants to sell, Nick wants to buy.
Nick is unexperienced and careful!
Alex just wants to get rid of his stuff and is also careful (IDtheft/adress).

I understand both sides.

But if you guys can't find a way to seal the deal, then you don't have a deal. There's not enought trust here from both of you for the other party...


Now to this thread:

This is heading in a wrong direction!!!

There are too many personal attacks here!!!


Let's all just agree, we are all in the EU, Italy is NOT better than Greece, nor is Romania any better or worse. Each country has good things and bad things. You'll find people that love their country, no matter where their country is listed on ANY kind of BS index, also you'll find people that hate the country they live in.
There is absolutely NO NEED for this fingerpointing and "I am better than you" BS here in this community.

Now step back everybody and chill!

For stuff like that, I hate to say this after reading the beginning of this thread , we have the PM function!

Thank you for reading.

Andre,

I've started this thread because of our personal dispute with too many PMs between me and Alex, about what is wrong, what is right, what is safe and what isn't.
So I thought I could get some help from our members who are more experienced than me on this matter.
I didn't had any intention to attack against anyone and I also don't have the power to turn this thread in the right direction.

If you think that I made an illegal question in a wrong forum, or this thread became useless, then I think that you have the right to delete it.


Me personally, I don't have any problem with what this thread is referred against me

Erm, does that include you? 'Cos if there are a couple of unnecessarily aggressive posts here, yours is definitely one.

I'm definitely feeling as if I'm being tarred with an inappropriate brush ("EVERYBODY involved here") for trying to keep the discussion on a factual level and lightening up some of the tension. Perhaps one should refrain from offering facts or voicing a requested opinion on options for transferring money.

Anyway - never mind. In the vernacular: "whatever".

Exactly : in northern Europe they haven't neither the sun
I think best country in EU are 5-6, biggest countries .


If you agree, that would put Greece even further up the list.
Pls, don't exaggerate
