There are advantages to "having the engine in the wrong place".

LOL!

Why doesn't he like the Porsche? I missed that part.
And I mean more than just the close windshield and "wrong placed" engine. Did anyone see what he said before all that in the episode?

Also, when I saw this thread title I immediately thought "Volkswagen...German Engineering!"... has anyone seen those REALLY funny commercials on TV now? The scientist guy with the really strong german accent who does things like, "unpimp the outside" *car goes flying through the air crashing into a mess*. LOL Those commercials are really funny.

And...I found it!

There's a few videos there, watch them all. They make me proud to be half German!

Oh, that dry British humor...what a hoot! Jonathan, there's a thread somewhere here in OTA about the new VW ads. MINI's original advertising firm is doing those ads....

MINI's original advertising firm did those ads? Hmm...well I can say one thing about that. I LOVE THAT ADVERTISING FIRM! I used to see a lot of MINI commercials a while ago, and I love them! These new VW ones are great too. That's probably the best advertising company in the world...in my opinion at least.

How did I know there would be a caravan in there somewhere? I think jeremy clarkson has some unresolved issues with caravans.
