Let’s Build a Future Without Cars

I am amazed at the amount people spend no cars but again be wary of the thought that this inherent to cars. It's about culture and keeping up with the Joneses. My 15 year old 4 cylinder car costs not a lot to run and takes me everywhere. You can prise out of my cold dead hands :-)

4 cylinders isn't the norm any more? I knew I didn't stay up to date with the automotive world, but blimey.

Europe has been flooded in recent times with three cylinder cars, the Citroen C1, Toyota Aygo and Peugeot 107, VW Polo, Seat and a whole slew of others.

By American standards these are tiny but for EU commuting / shopping / city driving they're fine.

Fiat even has a two cylinder car on the market.
