It is quite fun on european motorways in such situations watching the 
Citroen 2CV's with their 500cc engines (and skinny cart tires) motoring 
past the Beemers and Verandahs. They have contact with the road -- they
can steer and brake, so they don't have to go slow -- unlike the guys 
in the "fast" cars.

2CV's had 400 or 600 CC engines.
I 've had both and I still trust the road behaviour of these cars better
most times, than the heavy US cars....
