Wahaaa, what a great scene! ![]() The border-control-point is the second best joke ever! (the absolute top is that one: /vehicle_122445-BMW-2000-CS-1967.html) Yes, Austria sometimes is seen as a Balkan-country, too (mainly from us Germans), but you must admit, that they never had border-points like that one! ![]() And even the Austrians didn't use WWII-Kübelwagen with Citroen 2 CV-fenders as patrol-cars. ![]() And the border- and country-signs were usually made in the correct orthograpy!! Many thanks, with that pic you made my day! ![]() -- Last edit: 2008-08-06 20:20:52 |

The French sign says "Yugosalve". ![]() And there isn't anything in Serbo-Croat or Slovene (Slovenia being the part of Yugoslavia that bordered Austria.) |

I wonder if this is supposed to be the border between Villach and Jesenice? If so, the mountains aren't nearly high enough. Mind you, back in 2000 the Austrian Grepos at the Karawanken tunnel were a right bunch of fascists (the Slovenes at Jesenice I never saw at all). |

@chris: perhaps it was the intention - but the vegetation doesn't fit (and the style of the border-barrack neither). The whole scene loks like deep Balkan, more Albania than Austria. |

I would guess that this scene was filmed in Greece. |

It should be mentioned that this is not a real Kubelwagen. (bad replica) |

This is definitely not Austria. As I as an Austrian man see this, I am really offended ...... it makes Austrians and their borders appear more 'retarded' than they actually are.... |
