- Sub 500 euro/mo lease
- Enough range to handle my 340km round trip with the A/C on or in the snow.
- Not a disgusting soft blob with a cheap strip club interior (looking at you mercedes) or a brick shaped SUV (looking at you Hyundai, though the front ripping on the Rangerover is quite handsome)
Just give me a premium-ish feeling sedan from a boring brand. Why can't I buy a small, fully loaded ford or citroen or hyundai any more?

I bought an MG4. Pretty cheap and goes well. If VW wants to compete then that’s the target.
I'd love to go back to horses, though.
You can. Henry Ford didn't exterminate them, he just mass produced an alternative.
I think he is right.
