RE: A shop I will never visit

Nein !

In German Volks = People, Wagen = car, and Waggon = train
I think Volkswagon is the invention of one of those american idiots who
don't know how to spell Volkswagen (sorry guys ;-)

		Hmmm, not to sound like a troublemaker, but how do the
manufacturers of
	our beloved cars spell "Volkswagen"?  Is it possible that VW is
spelled
	"Volkswagon" in the land of VWs and sauerkraut?  I know I've
seen this
	before, but I'm not sure where...
