I would agree with that.
Except that DC wouldn't be so keen to report on the planned switch to
Peugeot which is, presumably, why they're giving him a new car.
(BTW my understanding is that Peugeot diesel engines are pretty good, too.
Not so sure about the car, though, even though I enjoy driving them.)

Yes, that is the _facts_ also reported by reputed German
news mag _Der Spiegel_ - nevertheless I more trust DC here,
their info seems to be more precise to me.
If I find the time I will set up a page later where
all the info from DC is contained.
Kind regards
Juergen -
only needs to clock another 4.400.000 km to break the record... ;-)

It is not clear from that article, but that already
is the converted figure from km to miles - so it is
2.800.000 miles which is more than 4.500.000 km!
An article in GERMAN language can be found at
