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!

They might fit the same amount of people, but not the same amount of overblown ego.

6 vs. 5. But I get your point.

It is too big, but the form factor is still important. We upgraded from a Jeep to a Yukon Denali because we are very poor and live in Fuck All, Nowhere and need to haul groceries and furniture from the city.

With that said, none of us three friends and housemates like testosterone, and we are careful about how we drive and where we park. We do our best! <3

That's a polo not a golf, so while it's big it not quiet as big as portrayed

It's not about how many people you can fit, it's about how much potatoes you can fit.
