I send this yesterday by mistake to Paul R. instead of to the list as

Speaking about Ford.
Somewhere in the early 80's, was it '82 or '83, I was at the Brussels Auto
show with the Ford Sierra premiere, it made my stomach turn over. For the
US readers, this was the car that became here later the Merkus X4i. (sp?)
That day I promised myself that if all cars would become like that, I would
never buy one of those jellybean-designed car.

PS :still in love with my real Land Rover and Range Rover, that's a
conservative class act design.
