The irony of having no windows for better accident protection really amuses me!

It has a split tailgate like the Skoda Superb, so it'll be a big seller in the German Taxi market...

(predicts polemicist will like this too )
BMW likes it so much, a 3er GT is also coming.

Honda has a me too version of the US Accord/JDM Inspire coming too!

Making mid-sized hatchbacks trendy again. Long live the Chrysler Alpine!

Looks ok to me, better than the X3 anyway

[QUOTE=j8mie,Jul 2 2009, 04:51 PM] I just get fed up of getting bullied by a minority who think having a SUV/4x4 gives them right of way on the roads.

Not necessarily, the high ride height ones have a habit of launching off the lower down cars and getting into some inverted aerobatic style manouevers!
