Which really says a lot about the size of modern-day minivans.

Probably even a tad shorter. It was hugely popular here in Austria thanks to "non US/Canada" manufacturing happening here (and being the only "domestic" car aside form the Moercedes G at that time), so there are still a lot around.

Everytime you see them around modern vehicles, they seem (especially the SWB version) so small, nearly cute. And this is Europe, where majority of cars are sized around Golf - Mondeo at max. In the US, a Mk. 1 Caravan (or any K-car) must seem more like a Kei car from Japan ;-)

Will NA get the Courier? It's my favourite too.

...has that been announced by Ford? They've released surprisingly little about the Courier at all, let alone re: US sales.

For example: http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09...d-transit.html

i fail to see the reason for excitements in our american friends... getting excited about worst that europe can offer, awesome.

I wonder how long until Fiat sends Doblo over.
