Honestly this is absurd. These death machines shouldn't be legal in europe. That thing doesn't even fit in the parking space, even though the parking lot has the biggest spaces in the whole city. The ~~Golf~~ Polo is so small in comparison, it could even hide in front of the engine hood of the truck.

EDIT: It's a Polo and not a Golf, I don't know my cars, sorry for that!

The small car is clearly a Volkswagen, the badge on the front is visible. It's a pre-facelift Polo mk5, though, and as a fellow tall person whose brother had one for a while I know I fit in it fine

Huh, from afar it looked like the renault emblem. But ye, polo fits fine too if the chair/wheel are set right

Sorry for phrasing it quite so grouchily. I didn't mean for it to come across like that, but re-reading it now it was quite rude of me
