Of course you have to research before you buy something.

In the same way you research before buying a car or other
technical stuff.

If you buy a VW Polo and then complain that it is to small,
that IS strange.

If you buy a VW Polo and then come to the forum complaining that all your friends use different cars then there is something strange in your other habits. ;-)

Of course it is a pity that in our case VW now thinks that cooperation with Trabbi ( http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabant ) is best. ;-)
But as long as you have a community that thinks Trabbi is **** and VW cars are supported by community, the research was not in vain.
