A major row has also broken out between France and Italy about how many additional reverse gears should be fitted - to take account of experience (not) in the Iraqi war - and how many white flags should be carried.

"The EU commission, though, has ordered that use of the gun has been prohibited under the Kyoto protocols because the emissions have not been factored into the trading scheme. No move to order the ammunition can take place until the authority of the commission to make this ruling has been tested in the European Court of Justice, with a preliminary judgement expected in September 2009.
There is a possibility that this situation may be resolved more speedily as the gun may have to be removed completely to allow room for the disabled toilet. However, the European Defence Agency is being difficult about this. It is also being less than helpful about the pedestrian-friendly front and rear bumpers, the high visibility panels, the flashing warning lights on each corner and the motion beeper, as required by the European Road Safety Agency."
