What's the attraction of 101's?

I _think_ that they all had basic (not inertia reel) safety belts fitted as standard.

I wouldn't doubt this for a moment, sadly. (Bang goes the contract for the Medico Legal Service!)

I'm 20 stone, and 6'1". The 101 is quite comfortable for me. I think people who have legs longer than 32" will have a problem though, as my knees are only 2" below the wheel.

Are you serious? I wouldn't ever have put you at that. Having now met you I'm starting to question my quality of memory. P'raps it's just the "kin eck, he's tall" bit that stuck. You're not fat though you b*****d!

:-)

The hinges are broken.... Bloke across the road keeps saying "Did you know that thing has a big red cross on the top?" :)

I was actually referring to the headroom in the 101. The 101 and landies are the only cars i've driven where my head has a decent amount of clearance off the inside of the roof.

I'd presume that there was also a smaller one, and a larger one..

Never mind. It's going to improve your driving skills :). I'm getting much better at reversing now!

I also have a pair of truck mirrors to make it even easier :) Theyre going on this weekend if i can work out how to mount em!

Theres still a kerb infront of our widened drive. Its amazing how a simple kerb can still cause trouble for a landrover that youve just started up!

Lol. I'm not that tall. But I am 20 stone. I just carry it well, that's all.
