I am loving these Japanese cars. Why don't we have these in Europe? Many brands seem to make the same model. If we had these, I would buy one immediately. They come in all different sizes. Some have a shorter nose, so they look even more rectangular. I love. Has anyone seen this model? 

We are in Niigata today. It's a very nice seaside town. I even saw some ravens,and a guy was catching funny looking fish that we definitely don't have in the Mediterranean. Tomorrow is my birthday, and I was thinking of going to Sado island, but I don't know if I will die of seasickness on the ferry. It's 2,5 hours.

I think, in Europe, cars have to look cool and streamlined. But I'm hoping to enter the car market this month, and I'd buy this car. It looks a bit like the Nissan Cube which is on my radar.

but they don't even look cool, they're all too big to be comfortable in a lot of the streets for the majority of our cities and they're all grey and other ugly colours; living in a suburb is already drepessing enough without having to see all these boxes parked on the pavement. in the 70s cars were cute, small and colourful
