My guess is they just assume (probably rightly) that most people will drive or fly. Trains are cool though and America is a trainlet country.

Nobody drives to Istanbul though. That's like playing with your own life.

What do you mean?

Turks are not the problem. A high speed rail between Paris and Budapest is under construction already and there is even a high speed rail being constructed between Istanbul and Edirne. The eastern European countries are the big obstacle to connect the lines with each other.

Have you haven driven to countries like Bulgaria, Serbia and Romania with a BMW i8? You'd rather not...

You mean crime rate so high? What if you drive an old cheap car?

He's right anyway, nobody would drive to Turkey. Gas is way too expensive for that.

I doubt anyone would buy himself a new car for just one trip.

I've never been to those cunts at all. Tell me about what you're referring to.

high crime rates

What would they be likely to do to a traveler passing through?

and that's a good thing

Nobody here gives a fuck about what car you drive as long as you mind your own business. Stop pulling things out of your ass.

blame the commies

High speed train from Istanbul to Berlin.
German nightmare.

They do. A Turkish girl I know just arrived in Istanbul after visiting Prague, Vienna, Belgrado and Athens.

Never been to your country, but I agree. He portrays it like something between Jammu and Kashmir and wild west.

Europe don't need it . Simple

>all those Autobahn construction sites
lol every fucking time

stare at you

>driving over the channel

problem?

There is a shuttle service that takes your car.

Yeah I've noticed that. Somehow Germans are constantly repairing their roads but they are still shitty.

There's no bridge?

There is a tunnel.
