Ever driven an earlyish Golf GTi or even an Alfasud ( pref cloverleaf ) ? 'Point and shoot' cars. Unbelievably responsive ! You simply can't make a large heavy car handle like that. > If you want, you can even make a Crown Vic handle - like the police cars. Uh ? What's a Crown Vic ? > The Grand Ntional was not a small car, but it had power and handling. But as > you stated, for its size it handles nicely and not every one wants a SPG or > Aero - especially on a rough road. Aeros aren't intended for rough roads. They're intended for 'metalled' roads. You may prefer to consider a Land Rover in your case however. Graham
