Nooo, Brabus is THE Mercedes tuner....
I'm from South Africa, where we speak our own flavour of English (apparantly we sound like Australians to Americans).
A couple of years ago, my dad and I landed up in Glasgow Scotland after being redirected there due to heavy snowfall.
Asking for directions to Edinbugh was an absolute nightmare - both myself and the poor chap trying to give me directions were speaking "Queens" English, yet had to resort to some hysterical form of sign language and pointing at maps, as we simply couldn't understand each other.
Must say, despite language differences, I found the Scots a great bunch, yet I still crack up with laughter whenever I think of;
"Yerrrr naught from these poarrrrts then arrre ye lad...? "
Cheers!
