Prof. Roland Berger at the FCT tonight on his way to MUC.
(He was asked if he would mind riding in the MB van, as they have 10 HONs on the flight...at least now it's nice and quiet again here)

Sometimes they ask, sometimes not. I'm always fine with the van. Better than that cramped Panamera thing anyway.

Among the current choices, the Panamera is the worst and even the Van is better...

As long as she doesn't need to sit on his lap, I assume it is okay

:-( I never riden in the Panamera -- wanted to try it, but maybe not. I've only riden in the MB, the Cayenne, and the van.

He made a ton of snidely comments about women's soccer during the ride so his chances where pretty slim anyway
