If it's good enough for the Queen of England, it's good enough for the proles.

As long as you use it in the summer, and avoid Dallas in November.

NP.

It does. As long as you take care water doesn't enter the admission.

Extra Kudos if it's the Méhari 4x4.

Waterproofing problems.

In fact it is one of the few cars you can clean with a bucket of seawater and not worry about rust.

Indeed. Operation Overlord was a masterpiece of logistics. So was the "island-hopping" Pacific campaign. I once read that for every American GI in WWII the US supplied more than 3 tonnes in matériel. For every Jap? Less than 300 lbs.

Yes, we do have the FAL here. Maybe I'll end up working there in a couple years, who knows?

IIRC, the engines and some other parts were indeed made in Bristol, a city of long aeronautic tradition. So is Seville, although in a lesser scale... we did manage to build Messerschmitts and Heinkels with Rolls-Royce engines!

I think it was Ike who said that the best vehicles the Allies had and the key to victory were the Jeep, the 2 1/2 ton truck, the Liberty ships and the C-47. None of them were designed to be combat vehicles...

Every time Brad Pitt gets his face beaten, the God of Cinema smiles.

Hooray for peace treaties and forgiving old enemies.

BTW, knowing that you live in Bristol... is your nickname an homage to that wonderful airplane, pride of Britain's air industry?

If there's not enough data on particulates, before making a decision and "giving values" we should get them. What we have, so far, isnt promising: there is a direct correlation between certain kinds of particulates and diseases like asthma, cardiovascular disease and some cancers.

Amen, brother.

But the Bloody Awful cocktail wasn't.

Where I live (Seville) air quality is average at best, I suffer from allergies which are enhanced by Diesel particulates and before traffic in the city centre was restricted some of the iconic buildings of the city were covered in soot and slowly eroding because of acid rain. I agree, lorries and buses are the biggest…

DPFs since 2 years ago. The A3 has been sold here since the late 90s.

All that is good. But now think as a potential supercar buyer: you want something flashy and glamorous, not necessarily effective on the track.
