Mine goes straight into park when you kill the ignition if you haven’t already. Is that different on the DSG boxes?

Sehr geehrter Herr iElvis,

Same. We honestly hate this. We hate politics encroaching on cars. We seriously want to do nothain’t but get back to cars. At the moment, politics are getting involved with what we love.

I remember back when the wall came down my parents used to stuff us into our car every weekend to go and discover East Germany, previously our visits had been to relatives e.g. with a shadow (my uncle was a clergy and had a farm) or using the transit roads to travel between Berlin and West Germany. One day we were in…

No, an idiot who drove into a train is to blame for the accident.

There's one currently in the car park at my day job, so I would have to agree with you, simply on the basis that if there is less than 100 in the world, there's even slimmer chance of a right hand drive version being driven in a little town in New Zealand

First four door wagon, but Reliant had been doing 2-door estates for a decade already.

Indeed, the shoulder isn't always available and it is bullshit to use it as an excuse for not creating the emergency lane for vehicles.

The Crosstour fails the wagon test http://jalopnik.com/5872562/what-m…It fails a lot of other things too, but one thing at a time
