With the dollar at $1.56 per Euro you can see why.

Just think about the cabbage BMW is making off of every X5, X6 and Z4 they send over to Europe and England.
Kind of boggles the mind.
You clearly do not understand exchange rates. A USD is worth about 50 pence ie a USD 34000 CTS should sell for GBP17 000! Not GBP27 000 (USD 54000)
