<font face="Arial" size="2">Anyway, spec makes sense, the German is easy, Tag is day, Garantiekarte is Guarantee Card or what we would call the warranty info. </font>

<font face="Arial" size="2">Verdistien (a Dutch company) haven't made whitewalls since the 1960s - originals I would have thought are going to be show only now even in the US.</font>

Is Bremen a city !!!!!! Outrageous sometimes how little you guys know about the world outside North America !

Bremen is indeed a German city...kinda like Cleveland, but without all that "glitz". As a famous port city, it's possible your Amphi set off from the land of its birth from there. Some North Americans may have first heard of Bremen through the Brothers Grimm Fairy Tales, wherein Bremen is frequently mentioned. Germans would likely have heard of Cleveland as having been the city in America where the river caught on fire. Beat THAT eurotrash!
