What’s in a name?  A lot if you consider how much energy the car and van makers of this world put into it.  The Volkswagen Amarok hits the British van market in 2010 and let’s face it, the name will mean nothing to you unless you’re hot on Inuit mythology - apparently Amarok is a mythological wolf that hunts and devours those stupid enough to hunt alone at night!
