Attitudes may soon change with Brent at over 90 USD/barrel and rising :-)

Thanks Charlie,
we used to drive a Golf (we had 3 over the years), but the Polo is large enough now that our son Florian has his own wheels (an almost indestructible older model Nissan Micra). This is now our second and it is hardly noticeable that it's much smaller than a Golf (I'm almost 6 feet tall and weigh in at close to 100 kilos). Nippy enough for the city, comfortable enough for longer trips and economical too.

Doug,
   That was my point.  If you try to tell most Americans that
a Golf is a practical family car, they look at you like
you are deranged, or newly arrived from another planet. :-)
