I'm not a massive fan of religion, but that's crazy. I'd assume the same would stand if a scout group wanted to put up a flag pole outside their new hut to fly a their scout flag.

What about the elections when people pop up those party flags, will they be charged?
And what if you have a cross or other reliogiouse simbol on graves, are they to be removed?
abolish that ruling. assuming Mercedes Benz dealers can have massive Benz stars set up for free, because the star has always been the oldest and identifiable symbol of the Mercedes Benz brand.

Wonder how much it would be to put up a large swastika, the ancient symbol of life and good luck.

Me being boring:
You will find that all German firms tend to use a circle in there logo's as its a good luck thing.
Thats why you will see on all (I think all) german cars you see a circle in the logo.
You may see that in other German products.

The Germans used a revers one.
You do find the normall one world wide. Its popular in Indian designes.
If you go to Ilkly Moor there is one in stone (stone age). Interestingly enough they say there is an identical one onm the opersite side of the world to the one in Ilky.
It has different meanings, but many claim it to be seasans. But there are othere theories.

Did not start off being a German firm.

you are wrong. Porsche was founded on 25-04-1931 in Stuttgart, Germany. it was evacuated to Gmünd, Austria in 1944 due to WW2 and moved back to the german offices in 1949. it was however always a german company.
trust me, the austrians try hard enough to make Porsche austrian.

get a VW Touareg and slap the Porsche badge on it, use the saved amount on hookers and/or fine single malts.
