No need for the willy waving! Size isn't everything (don'tcher know).
The Vasa recovery is undeniably impressive. My mum saw it in the 1980s when she picked up a Saab 99 from Sweden and brought it back to West Germany. Her report was very favourable about it.
Is it a little bit bizarre - Brits driving Swedish cars in the old FRG? Nope! The Saab 99 was a heavy beast and with snow tyres, could easily get up snowy slopes/roads that left BMWs and Mercs looking like expensive twits, parked on the corners of switchbacks up the mountains in Bayern. The Audi Quattro and later others sorted that problem out with 4WD. I still have a toy one given to me by a German on my 17th birthday.
