VW Golf pickup extended version

This Golf pickup, photographed in vantaa today, is extended version made only for Finland. The reason for this extension was the law. On those days the pickups were released from car-tax because they were two seaters and the main thought was that they were bought to be used in some kind of working purpose. There were several small picups (for example Toyota 1000 in addition to Golf like this, in USA this was, I think, Rappid or something) on market that formed to be famous among the single youth and they bought those cars for driving in everyday use without professional use. So, the law was revisioned to determine the minimum length of the free space behind the cabin so that most of the smallest pickups must be handled as normal cars and the tax must be paid for those too. Car importers decided to go around this law and they planned extensions to these cars and this is one good example of that. You can clearly see the extension at the back of the car.
