A smaller brother to the Rambler was the Austin Metropolitan, which was

(and elsewhere).

Not very global, I suspect. They're pretty much unheard of in the UK.
In any case, I've looked up pictures of them and in Europe a Rambler would not

Stand firm for what you believe in, until and unless logic and experience prove
you wrong. Remember: when the emperor looks naked, the emperor *is* naked, the
truth and a lie are not "sort-of the same thing" and there is no aspect, no
facet, no moment of life that can't be improved with pizza.
