Saabs still work Over Here, Ken, even though the company is in trouble.
And BMWs and Audis are still as aspirational as ever they were, despite the
rise of Hyundai and Kia. The Prius, as with any hybrid or electric car, is too
expensive to buy, for no better fuel consumption than the leaner petrol- or
diesel-engined cars. In fact, the only reason hybrids or electric cars are
doing so well is because of Government incentives, I think.
