Honestly this is absurd. These death machines shouldn’t be legal in europe. That thing doesn’t even fit in the parking space, even though the parking lot has the biggest spaces in the whole city. The Golf Polo is so small in comparison, it could even hide in front of the engine hood of the truck.

EDIT: It’s a Polo and not a Golf, I don’t know my cars, sorry for that!

    So I heard, it was always fascinating to me, the cultural difference on it. To me (heavy bias) vans just seem better. Excellent weather protection, much better theft prevention. Maybe a tad more limited when it comes to large awkwardly shaped things, but you can still keep a door open and strap down your load.

    I also suppose visibility suffers in a panel van.

      I think there is a big part that is visibility. I’m not defending it. I am just guessing why they would prefer it to a van. Plus “windowless van” in America has a pedophile connection. Or a serial killer.
