That should keep up the second hand values, especially with another Lara Croft film in the offing! The only drawback could be that the recovery services could spend all winter rescuing trendies who don't know what the scond gear stick is for! John

heh. inevitable really...
mind you, I have trouble judging such contests - the criteria are too wide, it's like those "best film ever" things - you could take 100 people and get
100 different opinions - and one such voted "Titanic" as best film ever, which was patent bollocks AFAIC, OK, it wasn't a BAD film, but as a film, it's not really any better than "A Night To Remember".There were 3 vehicles I'd have voted for, for differing reasons - the Land Rover, for sheer longevity and the fact that you can keep 'em running using string and nails; the McLaren F1 for being an uncompromising road-racer, intended to be the best car they could build at the time, without worrying about what it cost; and the DS for its technical advancement, load of stuff on the DS which they're only now putting on yer average car, and Citroen did it nearly 50 years ago - and those swivelling headlamps are a brilliant idea which I wish I had on my motor.
But I'm glad the Land Rover won, even so.
I thought they'd used a jeep for the next film.

The headlamps on my SIIa swivel, sometimes in the same direction. I was going to nickname it Marty Fieldman but Bag-o-Shite seems to have stuck.

I had in mind ones that swivel on demand, in a controlled manner :-)
someone from the ancient history of the shed popped up a couple of days ago, and was asking after you...

Asking after me or the escapade of the Lard Rover and Ilkley Moor?
Brings back memories, Bob Goddard needing to go and the only place was Ilkley Cross (or summat similar), since renamed Goddards Slash.
I'll get me goat
