    tobone, the German standard is something like a Volkswagen Golf, small, good on fuel and practical or a Passat as a family car so the Marauder is totally out of the box, many people think it's fun but you get a lot also just shaking their heads at it.

    Doesn't work so well for me, when I drive behind cars they slow down to see what that thing in their mirror is. On the highway you get people driving up next to you and then just sit at your rear quarter taking a look and sometimes even whip their phones out for a picture. They just sit there for up to a few minutes and you then can't get out into the fast lane. I've always like old mans cars and I'm just 20, sad isn't it?

    Franman so you run LPG in your Town Car and there is no difference in acceleration? I certainly notice the difference in the Marauder but then again I have an intelligent system that will revert back to petrol when you perform a kickdown to give you the full performance.

    Friend of mine saw this one sitting in an Isuzu dealer yard in Munich Germany, no license plates and no price tag on it so I assume someone just imported it, has 113k miles on it.

    There are 6 in Germany that I know of now, 4 Blacks, 1 Silver and 1 Blue. One of the Blacks was wrapped around a tree last year, it was then sold to a body shop in the Czech Republic which rebuild the car using Crown Vic components and exported it to Armenia.

    In Europe I know of at least 4 others, 3 Blacks in Finland, England and Austria as well as 1 Silver in Spain which according to the owner was an original Florida Highway Patrol Unit. I believe there is at least 1 in the Netherlands and Sweden also but haven't seen pictures of those yet.
