It is and it is in its way to become the biggest in Europe if not already. They've recently bought/associated some banks in the UK and they are ever growing.

BTW there are Expert stores in Spain too.

It´s said that his father has got so much money, and owns different business.

Xevi said in an interview that he was working in the familiar Cement Factory.

Something I've wondered for a while: What do Martini do? Sponsors of Lancia for years.

Sammy is or was a Japanese company involved with markeing the WRC in Japan.
I can't remember if it held the commercial rights or not. Another company called
Spike has the broadcast and DVD commercial rights, now. The obvious connection with these companies and Subaru is David Richards (WRC world commercial right holder)
