EU referendum: German car makers warn on free movement www.bbc.com
German car makers have said that the UK will have to accept the free movement of EU citizens in return for access to the single market.
Matthias Wissmann, from the German Automotive Industry Association, said the UK would have to accept the "bitter pill" of free movement.
Restricting access to the UK was a key promise of the Leave campaign.
Leave campaigners also argued that, to help car exports, Germany would push for a generous trade deal with the UK.
However the German car makers appear to be taking a tough line.
"We don't like to build new barriers... but any bid to secure full access to the single market would necessarily come with conditions. Everyone who negotiates on the British side will understand that," Mr Wissmann said.
"If you want full access to the market, that comes necessarily with the free movement of people. That's the bitter pill the Brexiteers have to accept," he added.Responding to those comments, Conservative MP John Redwood said: "The contacts I've had over recent months have always stressed to me that Germany doesn't wish to impose new tariffs or other barriers in the way of our trade
"And Germany in particular doesn't want the World Trade Organisation external tariffs on cars, because that's one of the few which is quite a bit higher."
