Happened to be passing a LR dealer this afternoon, so we called in.



Sat in a Disco 3 and a RR Sport.



You can smell the money, can't you?


I can smell the depreciation, it smells like wot Max rolls in when the fox has left it...

Your Max does that too? So does ours. Wouldn't like to let him in the back of that Rangie afterwards. To be honest, I don't like letting him in the back of the Defender when he's done that, but the RSPCA object to him running behind. :o)

Couldn't you fit him with a set of doggie rollerskates or something? Failing that, tie him to the roofrack.

How about some CB mag-mounts on his feet, you could clip him on the side then, dashing along with his tongue hanging out!

mag-mounts on Land Rover?

tread carefully :)

I tried a Magmount on my landrover, but i had to take it back to the shop as it was faulty - it kept falling off.

Alex

It's only the Defender and earlier ones that it won't work on, Disco etc are magnetic. Err, in fact I'm only sure about the Disco and am assuming the rangies are!

Anyhow, even with the Defender you could clip him on underneath, two paws on one chassis rail, the other two paws on the other. Simple!

Then there's the steel modulars...

I followed a big RV thing along the motorway last summer. He had a little tiny dog trailer on the back of it. It was basically like a little box with small air holes at the top with 2 wheels on.

I dont think i'd want to put an animal in one.

Which landrover? I thought we weren't on about the ally ones?

An RV? What's that, isn't it one of those remotely controlled submarine things they send down to the titanic?

Me neither, unless it was a fish. Or a small yappy dog.

If it's not made of ally and isn't on leaf springs, it isn't a Land Rover.

Alex

The Disco only has a steel roof, sills and arches...the rest is ally....just like the Range Rover it was based on....

Hmmmm,

Best keep quiet about my proposed purchase then. Suffice is to say it has a black badge, isn't a pre-19whenever they went green, and it's not one of those bloody footballers cars either (Range Rover Ripoff cheap crappy Sport) :-)

Ah OK, never mind, I thought I was onto a winning business idea there..

He'll roll in whatever he judges to be the worst smelling of stuff. A dead fish in Leamington led to a very uncomfortable drive back to Sheffield after the 101 club AGM last November.

American camper van (such as at

). Like anenglish camper van but twice as big!

I doublt it would be yappy for long after being in one of them. It must be pretty scary being dragged along the motorway in a small woolden box at 60+ mph

On or around Fri, 13 Jan 2006 00:10:28 +0000, Alex enlightened us thusly:

I had a dodgy one, too. wouldn't stick to the roof of my Reliant Regal.

Hmm.... pop-out sides and roof.... Hmm....

My god you've been in the showroom? check your pockets!
