Mercedes are German cars. They sell loads of them in Germany and mainland Europe.
Ever spent a winter in Germany? Plenty of snow and very very few stuck cars. They're not all manuals but they are all wearing winter tyres.
I was at a meeting in Paris with a German colleague just before last winter and he heard it had snowed earlier than usual and he was dreading the journey home - he said it's always a nightmare with people being late to put winter tyres on.
