20In paragraph 47 of the judgment under appeal, the Court considered that the Commission had misinterpreted the case-law which it cited in support of its case when it argued that, according to the judgments in AEG v Commission; Ford v Commission; Case C-70/93 Bayerische Motorenwerke [1995] ECR I-3439; and Case T-62/98 Volkswagen v Commission [2000] ECR II-2707, it was not necessary, at least in the case of selective distribution systems such as this one, to look for acquiescence to a manufacturer's call in the conduct adopted by the dealer in the context of that call (for example after its receipt) and that such acquiescence ought to be regarded as having been established as a matter of principle by the mere fact that the dealer had entered the distribution network.
