“Britain, by itself, is a very small economy with very limited resources.”

What league are we talking? The World Series or The Super Bowl? 

The quality is good in EU for transits. That said there’s a lot of competition over here. 

The later Defenders weren’t too bad, but nothing on even a modern van realistically. The military ones are bare bones, lots of bare metal, internal roll cages to hit your head on, ragged by squaddies and a top speed of about 70mph. Incredible off road though . 

Old Defenders are on the whole reliable. However, you have to remember it is just a chassis with a drive-train and merely a platform to move things and people to places that are difficult to get to, without a suggestion of comfort.

I passed a new Defender on the Motorway this Sunday in the UK (The M45 I think)). Funnily enough I was driving a Military Land Rover Wolf Defender after a weekend exercise.

Awww god, this happens all the time to me. However, the worst car or filling with petrol was the Chrysler Neon I had.

I didn’t know this, brilliant idea. 

I will literally buy one if this is available anytime soon. It would suit me perfectly her in the UK.

Lovely jubbly. That tickled me pink. 

Essentially EVs are charged up with electricity which can be a renewable source.

Isn’t the reason because there’s some dumb regulation stating that turn signals/indicators have to be part of the fixed area of the car.

A lot of people I know have company car schemes or get a fat wedge to lease or buy a car.

Which is a good move. There’s an ‘inner ring road’ in our city, that was sort of bulldozed through in a city that had long been established before cars were really a consideration and was built around rail and waterways.

Plus, this is smaller than a Tesla 3. That makes it so much more useful.

Suffer? We’re not exactly suffering. 

My dad had two Belmonts. 

I had the 1.7 CDTi van version of this Astra. Obligatory white and the fastest thing on the road.

Try selling any car with 400k miles on. See what you will get for it. It will be less than 25% of the original purchase price.

I’m pretty sure Subaru did this to their WRX Impreza around the ‘hawk eye’ model years, in the UK at least.
