Or let’s call it self-irony at the very least. Due to the arrival of our second child recently our family car park had to be reconsidered, so something with a traditionally large boot entered.
While this resulted in inevitable teasing from some of my colleagues (entering the age, where it’s OK; need to put a hat on the back shelf to blend in with the other owners; did I start a mini-cab firm...), it also came with a surprising discovery. Namely that the very traditional German maker has a sense of humour and offers a ‘wackel-dackel’ as a factory accessory. Which a friend proceeeded to get for me.
