I'm sorry but I don't understand the pun. Perhaps Germans in a Trabi (Osssi ?), BMW (Bavaria) or a Mercedes would be stereotypical, but this one?

Thank you for using my picture. But the depicted motorcycle rider is Diederik Nossent, a Dutch citizen. And therefore this pic is unsuitable to illustrate stereotypes of Germans, I fear... With kind regards from Germany --

The part about german citizens and their relationship to their nation and patriotism has nothing to do with stereotypes. So I have removed the following text:
"After the
German reunification in 1990, the fear of nationalistic misuse of Pan-Germanism nevertheless remained strong. The overwhelming majority of Germans today are not chauvinistic in nationalism, but in 2006 and again in 2010, the
German National Football Team won third place in the
2006 and
2010 FIFA World Cups, igniting a positive sense of German pride, enhanced by success in sport. For decades after the Second World War, any national symbol or expression was a taboo.[1] However, Germans are becoming increasingly patriotic.[1][2][3]"

I would ask for someone speciallized on stereotypes to go over thid article. It is still very biased and does not start from a well based critical view on stereotypes.
