A friend of mine just returned from Europe and had nothing but praise for
the rental car she rode around in. These cars are apparently smaller &
cheaper then those sold in the U.S., but sturdier, economical to run, and
very sound mechanically. Is all of this true, can these models be had in
the U.S. (or is the installation of emissions control equipment too costly)
and what are the most popular small cars in Europe and their
characteristics.
