Probably somewhere like China or Japan knowing how much they like a big car.

Somewhere very green and overcast sky, and loose paving slab. London maybe !

Edit, just noticed I don't seem to see a steering wheel on the right, confused. Paris that has worse weather than London.

Edit 2 Ok I cheated and googled it. I wont spoil it for others except to say I was way off the mark.  ;D

I would go with China as that is about the only place where large car sales are on the up.

It wont be Shanghai or Beijing as there to big to drive on those congested roads plus the plate charges will be enormous, you dont drive out of choice on thes cities.

So its probably Guangzhau (although I dont recall seeing any there) or somewhere like Chengdu which is big on finance

Import duties area a killer in China plus the plate costs are high (region dependent and although its illegal, many scooters dont bother, particularly in the suburbs)
