Taking a break from the seat-gripping (no pun) elections end in Lebanon (and no, you can not pin Jad Ghosn’s 88 vote loss on me, I do not vote in Metn).
So to cite a satiric remark “Russia has invented a time machine”.
Moskvitch is again.
OK, first the story. Renault is pulling out of Russia – like many different main manufacturers following the Ukraine struggle. However so as to not depart 45,000 individuals in its manufacturing facility jobless, it determined to promote their Moscow plant to the municipality for one rouble (with the choice of shopping for it again in 6 years – by then both the struggle would have ended or the general public opinion on this planet would have shifted. Whichever comes first).
So Moscow is again to constructing the automobile it is aware of the way to construct, the Moskvitch. Image of all issues associated to the USSR, the automobile really gained some design awards, some races, had its line develop to Belgium at one level (with a totally manufacturing facility there). Positive, the model was eclipsed by the better-built Lada ultimately.
After all, if one can carry the Moskvitch again, my abdomen is tickling concerning the East-German Trabant. When you’ve got not seen the Trabant scene within the film Goodbye Lenin, please do, it is comedy gold.
Really why not watch Goodbye Lenin right here…
