Small vans like MB sprinters seem to be popular.
Their are so many cool cars overthere I'd just buy one over there. That is if you decide you even need/want one.
Maybe a CLK270CDI or a X type sedan with a stick and a diesel!
I love looking through the for sale section in Eurpean mags. Their is one called "Classic Car" or something like that based in the UK. You can get nice Austin Martins and Rolls for $10k-$20k. Tons of cool gas W123's.
Maybe its just me but I would be looking at it the other way around. Buy something neat in Europe and bring it back.
