I see your Swedish traktor and raise you a Swedish traktor ute.

Can somebody please tell Sweden that this isn’t a proper traktor?

Ah, but it meets the regulations.

A traktor needs a warning triangle on the back, a tow hitch, no more than one row of seats, a cargo area at the back holding not more than 1.25 m3 and a maximum speed of 30 kmh.

Ok then. It’s a traktor in the same way that this is a van.

Well, if you tax cars heavily and vans less so you’re going to get people being creative!

I was in Norway a few years ago and was wondering what all those green plates were about so I asked the receptionist at the hotel I was staying in. She didn’t know either and had been wondering so we asked Mr Google.

A surprising amount of 90's performance Audi wagons were 2-seaters like the RS2 pictured. The S4/S6 wagon was the preferred bank robber car for years!

I’ve actually been a passenger in one exactly like that one. It was a bit unpleasant.
