Ivory Towers much? In the UK it's the youth market thats driving the Blackberry, all the schools have wi-fi coverage, the WEP key gets out (far too easily) and all the little dirt bags spend the time they should be studying on BBM, it's free unlike the text message limit a lot of the lower end contracts have and here in the UK it's mostly contract, cause thats how you get the phone without forking out shed loads of cash for it, they take out contracts they can't afford but get the free xbox or PS3 slap it on ebay to offset the contract cost.
So out of touch? Not if you want to push your product into the only market thats showing interest.
How am I so confident of this........father of 3 dirt bags.
No, just no. The most British of vehicles, the one we have all travelled in at some point in time in our lives, and I mean everybody on this Isle, is - The one and only Ford Transit Van, it's as British as a shag behind the bike sheds, fish and chips and bad teeth.
I had a friend of a friend got one of these for his 21st, his was white also. The panels looked awfully flimsey, there was no throat to the exhaust, he drove it to the pub and we all laughed at it and he got very upset and went home without even having a drink. He sold it soon after and bought a Peugoet 205 GTI that was a very nice 'special' or it could have been a Renault 5 Turbo, the 80's was a loooooong time ago and they all changed their cars like a hooker drops her knickers. Me, I had a 2CV, my daddy wasn't a banker.
johnnyabnormal you're coming accross as a troll, an educated troll but a troll nevertheless.
I think we have all heard "the science is settled, the debate is over" and it's just pissed a lot of people off, throw in the odd 'Hockey Stick Graph', the absolute lack of 'Runaway Heat Effect', the 'Hot Spots' that just aren't where they were supposed to be, the smoothing over of the 'Medieval Climate Optimum' and the 'Little Ice Age' and you have a lot of people asking questions.
In return for asking questions all you get is the 'Denialist' label (which is wholly disgusting and the weapon of choice for all the 'Belivers'), I don't deny that Climate Change is real, I'm all for renewables and sensible solutions but ask me about 'Cap N Trade' and you can have my foot in your arse.

To each their own, and I'm glad it's so, if we all liked the same things we'd have nothing to talk about.
In conclusion, we measure the desirability of a car by different standards and our opinions differ.
As for the 'disappoint'.....'I'm going out for a walk, I may be some time' (tramps to wood shed, a few moments later a single shot rings out......fade to black).

Nothing on the road in front of the first truck, the second truck decides to pull out and overtake just before a hill, pretty soon 2 trucks abreast doing the exact same speed, 15mph below the limit for the next 14miles a queue of traffic thats gotta be 5 miles long behind them.
Eventually after what seems like an age with the clock ticking like a gong in my head the one 'overtaking' gives up and pulls back in. As I go past them they are both on mobile phones..... My eldest has a birthday this weekend but I'm gonna have to settle on a phone call.
Kings of the Road? FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU.
(I'd given up on leaving comments but I'll make an exception this time.)

You drive drunk you're a twat, you kill someone; while driving drunk, you deserve anything and everything anyone throws at you.
Good, f**k'em.
Call us 'a crass colonial power in decline'... have another corned beef sandwich and STFU.

@esdriven: I've just emailed the Dean also. Told him I thought he was being a t*t.
I look at that and I'm getting the words 'shit' and 'box'.
Renault R5????? Lancia 037????
@Ray Wert: Try Tiff Needle, on 5th Gear he went on a lot about the problems of driving/testing them to the point that there was a piece to camera where he made a big show about switching dials to where he was specifically told not to, then caining the car saying how much trouble he was going to be in and probably never invited back. #justathought
