Think these suit VIP-Style better than either the Cube or the Scion, like a micro VIP Previa or whatever.

VIP, even though I love your Lexus, I still kind of wish you'd bought one of these. The fully kitted ones don't seem to fetch much more than the 'stock' ones. Anyone know what kind of MPG these things do? (no, I'm not that tempted, just curious.  |

Was thinking of getting one of these, only thing that put me off is they only come in auto.
The seats fold flat into a bed, which is awesome. Also they have more doors on the nearside than the offside, more awesome. I think to stop your kiddies getting out into the road.

I reckon Auto would be fine in one of these, stick in drive, point it in the direction you're going and relax, hardly the sort of thing to be throwing around country lanes or for going on B-Road thrashes anyway.

Which would be great if they were ever sold or imported here. |

Very true, Mk1 Scion/Toyota xB and Mk1/2 Cube were personal import only, but at least you can find examples for sale in the UK.
Drew a complete blank with that one you posted.

A customer of mine at work has one for sale at the moment. They look really funky I'd totally roll one, although it would need to be in white with a hovercraft bodykit ;D
