Bode Swiller, no I think it is awful, really awful. As we live just down the road from the factory, I see loads of them and always smile...they are a beautiful car, but the pimped one was awful

Do they still take them on mad test drives on the A50 through Holmes Chapel?

All the MU footballers have them now(and Jordan) so i guess there is not much call for them at the moment. Give them a smattering of the glorious white stuff and they will be lining the ditches of Prestbury and Alderly Edge. Bently will back up to full production by, say, end of feb

Yes, think it went off topic around the time you posted the list of 4x4's and their "drivers"

You know it makes sense.

Shimmy Alcott, ah, all my fault, of course.

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

Land Rover Discovery in 2009 over 1752 miles with no roof box did 28.9
Land Rover Discovery in 2010 over same miles with Thule 900 roof box (biggest roof box there is I think?) did 27.3mpg. Much worse weather this year though when driving, driving snow, blizzards etc would have dragged down the mpg? Also this year with the roof box the car was much heavier, more skis, boots etc...
Normally without the roofbox I get about 31mpg.
Either way it does no matter as without the roofbox we would not have got everything there and despite the shoite driving conditions it still beats flying.
