Yet more misinformed crap.

We all agree, why not complain to the BBC tossers.

Peter uttered summat worrerz funny about:

Given they have the biggest growth in sales for new cars for what I'm led to beleive, the Beeb and any politicians may well be cutting there noses off to spite there face for the sake of "entertainment" or supposed votes. Give them enough rope and they'll be stuck in a ditch with alot of rope ;-)

Should be a stanard question pre recovery of any one. "Are you a Jerno or politician?" Next question , "Whats my car?", without using the words guzzler or Jeep.

I have

Subaru WRX Range Rover 4.6 HSE (The Tank!)

We might be going on a summer holiday, the Greece Ball rally!!!!

what grief do you get? I use mine for work - never had a single complaint. Anyone taking a peek at the contents[1] of the 110 is soon overawed by its capacity as a workhorse.

I mean generally bad press from the misinformed idiots that know nothing & BTW i use mine for work too!!

The only grief I get is when I go on site, all the other subbies want to buy my series 11 from me. For a pittance, of course. This after I've pulled their pathetic utes out of the mire with my 38 year old antique :)

Having been promoted (in job title only) I now qualify for a real carpark space and thus no longer need to take my Series IIa to work (it was the only vehicle I own capable of parking in the ornamental garden in front of the office). However the young lass (just turned 20) who is my PA has insisted on me still using it so she gets the chance to drive it when she goes to buy lunch, collect the post, and so on. Whilst I am all too aware of the Landy-Loonie disease I can't quite fathom her reasoning for wanting to drive it in the crap traffic in NZ's largest city when her daily transport is a far more suitable (and equally fun, and probably equally dry in the rain) Hayabusa Suzuki bike.

Don't get so wound up about this vacuous nonsense. The majority of viewers will have forgotten about it already and will be left with a feint impression that the couple who bought the RRS are a pair of social-climbing money-grabbing nit-wits who need beating with a s***ty stick.

They must have had those kids late in life - and boy, didn't she have big ears?

Looking her preferred modes of transport, she's obviously completely barking mad. HTH

That young lady seems an excellent incentive to visit NZ.

And she seems to have a well-honed instinct for survival in traffic.

Sounds like my kind of girl, pity she lives 12000 miles away.

They have Sheep , 'tinternet and Minibuses in NZ too Austin ;-)

A link to some phots of the lass is needed!

true, true. They're also not that keen on penniless immigrants. I've considered it, in fact. There's rather a lot of inertia to overcome though. Given the promise of a job once I got there, I'd be quite tempted. One of the problems is a lack of meaningful qualifications, though.

She's in good company then as most of us at work seem to be marching to the beat of a slightly different drum.

Suffice it to say she's well enough put together that if I wasn't married I'd be offering her a place to call home.

Jesus H Christ - another Pom with a sheep fixation. Both the Welsh and Kiwis let the sheep be sheep and don't bother trying to project our fantasies onto the ovine inhabitants of the neighbouring country. ;-)

She's a bloody good incentive for bothering to turn up at work - otherwise I'd probably telecommute from home far more often and only darken the doorway at work late at night (when less people would bother me with stupid requests) or when there was free beer available.

She certainly has that.

Hmmmm - I'll work on that.
