[pothole]

You have to go really fast to make autobahn driving interesting. And even then it's very one dimensional - you just sit there with the throttle pinned and hope nobody pulls out on you. And that's about it. I've around 150 to 160 on the autobahn (not in my 2.5, obviously). I suppose there would be novelty in cracking the 200mph barrier. But a road with corners is infinitely more fun.

If you lived in Germany and popped out for a drive in something like a Box with the purpose of sheer fun, you wouldn't just beat up and down the autobahn. That would be fairly ridiculous!

It's a novelty the first time or if you haven't driven them for a bit, I happily admit. But that's all.
