It's amazing they can create a consumer market out of this truck.

And here we are in Europe, where we pay extra motorway tax in
Germany for non Euro 3 emission engines on our lorries.
We even send our drivers to training in order to increase fuel economy by 1.5%..
Let's all chip in and buy one for Ken Livingstone, to drive around in the City.

It's funny the photos showed real uses of the truck like loading construction material and unloading them.
Where can you find blue collar millionaires to buy such a truck costing $100K?

Good lord, given the reaction to the E60, I can only imagine the articles, editorials and reader letters in Roundel if this were a BMW product! I suspect though that Bangle might have a slightly different take on the design.
