[Leica] IMG: Some more wide stuff in BW

Thanks Henning,

there's a weird situation in the car industry in Germany at the moment - 
people wanting to buy new cars can get a 2500 Euro grant from the 
government for scrapping their old car (over 9 years old). This means 
that the production of lower price bracket cars is booming (even at 
Opel), but sales of premium marques like BMW, Porsche and Mercedes have 
almost stagnated.

I feel sorry for Opel , their Insignia saloon has just been voted car of 
the year by European journalists.
