4x4 vehicles belong in a farmers field not on the road

I'd run a Supercharged Range Rover if I could, arm chairs for seats? Yes please! After driving one I can totally see why people buy them

So would I.. If I'd never discovered corners.. ;)

Must admit it was too soft in corners even for me, but sure that could be fixed  :)

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

When I am back later this year I am thinking of an XJR (x300/x350) and converting to LPG, but pre-2003 to avoid the return fuel issues of course ::)

Get someone who knows there p38 rangies to look over it for you,if you find a bad one it could be a money pit,it will also struggle to do mid twenties fuel economy as well so prepare for that.good luck cause if its a nice one they are a lovely motor :y
