I hate those kind of cars! They make you sit high so that it seams you have more leg room. They started the Smart here, cant imagine anyone walking away from a 100 km/hour accident in that car.

shit, i must have over looked them on my day trips last week. i mean, ive only been to each of those nations 5 or 6 times so how many opportunities did i really have?

edit: i did spend 7 days in paris and no, i didnt see any. but thats not to say there werent, any.... they'd probably just blend in with the rest of the undersized euro-carts...
