I have a feeling they'll still be learning in 1.6 Diseasel Focus' or 1.2 Auto Micras. Very much doubt any driving schools will deviate from the "standard" and tested platforms.

And of course, an 18 y/o girl isn't going to be able to get insurance on a C30/S60/XC60! Maybe in the USA where "Mummy-and-Daddy Banks" will sort something out for a "sweet 16th" !

What car was used in "Twilight" ? I still doubt 17/18 yearolds will be buying cars because their sparkly vampire had one. (Has anyone else noticed he is a 300 year old in the body of a young boy, hanging around with young girls?)

On a later point ... with the targeted market thing. The only C30 owner I know is a 58 year old caretaker, whos usual passenger is his Bulldog! Hardly a "young man".

Two C30 R designs in my town driven by a 24 year old and a 38 year old.
