European Car of the Year 2007.

[F Body]

An MPV !



A panel of 58 automotive journalists from 22 European countries voted the Ford S-MAX the 2007 European Car of the Year.

The S-Max earned its crown by boxing out the Citroen C4 Picasso ( big deal )  and Opel/Vauxhall Corsa ( Com-on ! ) which were also very close in the running.
The rest of the short list included the Fiat Grande Punto ( pretty car ) , Honda Civic ( it's triangular thing ) , Skoda Roomster ( ugly SOB ) and Volvo C30 ( not on sale yet ? ).

Review from last night :

"When Ford of Britain chairman Roelant de Waard collected the award from Autocar editor-in-chief Steve Cropley, he explained the appeal of the S-Max thusly: "This is the first MPV where you can imagine the owner has a sex life."

I thought that owing an MPV told everyone that all you had was a sex life
