4,000 BMW's for London Olympics

The Daily Mail has an interesting article about the Olympics ordering 4,000 BMW's from Germany to ferry Olympic dignataries from their west end hotels to the Olympic sports arenas. They point out that Seb Coe had promised the greenest Olympics.

If that was a serious pledge they would have orderd 4,000 Nissan electric vehicles from the North East, and would also have been supporting BRITISH jobs, but then I suppose this countries politicians could certainly win a gold medal for hot air so its no surprise.
