Customers? With what approach?

I'll just consider you a "little Englishman" then; with noting left than an overstated ego and pride in a Britain long since turned to sheit. Certainly the German car industry has fared far better than the British, and the same goes for most fields of engineering. You remind me of Jeremy Clarkson, just without the charisma.

Lets face it the Norwegians were only ever any good at surprising and killing unarmed gay monks  :rofl Once they ran into anyone with a few swords they got a severe beat down  :ahand  :banana:

Yes. Unfortunately for Britain they only had unarmed gay monks, which is why they lost their precious little island to the Vikings/Normans.  :ahand  :cheers:

Ask the Germans, if they think cruiser Blücher was driven by unarmed gay monks, when Norwegians sunk it.

Once the Vikings got their rears handed to them they had to go back to fishing for the last 800 years or so in case they embarrassed themselves again  :old: I read a book once that said they weren't very good at that either! Do you fish young man?  :headscratch:

Respectfully I think you misunderstood my comment about German engineering.

"Respectfully" I think you're full of it. Have a pleasant evening.  :aok

In the course of history, tribes of Scandinavian origin took over Germany, Britain, France, Italy, Spain, North Africa, and Russia.  Just with respect to Britain, after the Romans, it was taken over by the Angles and the Saxons (Germanic tribes of Scandinavian origin), then later from them by the Normans (of Scandinavian origin).  All tribes or nations historically have had some peak before and after which they were not as dominant, so the argument that at some point a particular tribe or nation was no longer dominant is moot.  The dominant times of the Vikings, Goths, etc. were very dominant.

It was mostly the Soviets who beat the Germans, since 80% or more of the fighting in Europe (as measured by number of people fighting, number of casualties, number of guns, number of tanks, or size of territory, or any mixture of those) was between Germany and the Soviet Union.

Britain is a great nation, and I love Britain!

However, the Goths ruled Continental Europe and North Africa at one point, and Gotland (where they came from) is 1/1000th the size of Britain.  Alexander the Great (from Macedon) took over a very large swath of the world, and Macedon was about 1/100th the size of Britain.  I was just arguing with the "pound for pound" part.  Also, there was Ghengis Khan, whose faction took over a large swath of Asia and Europe, but I'm not sure what to consider as the starting area size.
