V8 Freak Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Ok.. I can take the insults..... It's going again now... (but for how long you all ask ! ) Cost of fuelling isn't an issue.. It's what I want to spend on other things that's gonna cripple me ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8 Freak Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 First failure was a little black wire..... Never mind eh !! Was a nice experience standing on hard shoulder of M25 for 2 hours ! Makes you realise how cushy a life you have with a reliable company car for the majority of journeys !! BUT.. That aside, I wouldn't dare come to a LR event in the safe one.... LOL Doubt I'd have the ground clearance at the front to get into the car park... Back to topic.. Lincoln I see.... We escaped from Spalding a number of years back... All too flat you know.. At least you got that big cobbled hill to attack with the V8 of yours.. (Remember, slippery when wet..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earl Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 (edited) Hi Si and welcome I am watching you Edited September 28, 2006 by western Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gruntus Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Hi Si Pleased to meet you. This is a great forum for anything you need to know and I have found ALL the members to be very helpfull. Don't be scared to ask dumb questions!!! Just make sure you have a sense of humour!! Can't beat the sound of a V8 (if a little expensive to run). What are you getting to MPG? My brother had a 4.6 Range Rover and was getting 9 MPG on average!! He soon sold it when he worked out it was costing him the same as a mortgage! Glad I have diesel...
