Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level & beat you with their experience.

Practical family car much like a Morris Marina from 50 years ago. ;)

I fell asleep and only saw the beginning and the end, which was enough to get the gist of it all.  :)

I did enjoy the following youtube vid though which was an episode of Harry's Garage and he took his 16 year old L322 Range Rover to visit a neighbouring farmer who happened to have an almost identical Range Rover. It was Jeremy Clarkson.  ;D

Two old blokes chatting about Range Rovers was surprisingly entertaining and I managed to stay awake!   :y

All I need to do is put a deposit on it, by the time its actually built I reckon I could be asking a premium of cost plus £2M with out digging deep to start with. :y

Yes .... He spent some serious money on it though. IIRC he paid something like £5k or £6k on it in the first place but spent about £70k in total ... and then a bit more on the fuel injection.

But Jags should be auto's  ::)
