Rip Off Britain

Just ordered some bits for my French built aircraft from the Dutch distrubuter, the manufacturers are refusing to supply him parts for a UK registered aircraft contrary to all EU competition practices. Prices from the UK distributer are at least 50% higher than ANY other european distributor!

Now, browsing through an old copy of MCN I see the following:

MotoGP test - Catalunya. March 19-29
Entry - FREE

World Superbike test - Valencia. March 12-13
Entry - FREE

BRITISH Superbike test - Donington. March 13
Entry - TEN Pounds (estimate)

Barstewards, is it any wonder this copuntry os going to the dogs?

Think I'm gonna go live in Spain.........
