Those numbers seem extremely unlikely. I would think that almost no 17-year old owns a car and also has two children. That would mean that people with one or no child, or not owning another car, account for only 10% of Ami drivers?

> about half of all Ami buyers have one car and at least two children > More than 40% of those driving Amis are under 18.

If this is accurate, those 40% under 18 are driving, but not buying. It's probable that parents are buying those cars for their teenage children.

I read that as the following:

1. half of all Ami _buyers_ have one car and will continue to drive their existing car

2. half of all Ami _buyers_ have at least two children, and those children will the ones driving the Ami

3. 40% of those _driving_ Amis are under 18

4. 60% of those _driving_ Amis are over 18

Uhm. It could simply mean that people let their kids drive it. Buyers and drivers are not necessarily the same group.

Particularly buyers of things that cost 6000€.
