I think the title says it all, but this is in Paris, outside some shops where I was browsing guitars. We'll see if Pete tries to get one.

Stuart, I've seen several on the streets of Greenwich Village. A doorman told me it is a Mercedes design for urban enviorns. He & I were checking it out together. The seats are high up, as an SUV, and the hatch revealed some luggage space. I was very surprised.

Ben -

Yes, it is from Mercedes, and has been selling well in Euope and elsewhere for several years. We even saw a few in NSW, Australia, on our way home form Papua New Guinea in October of 2006. It seems to make great sense as an urban car.
