So within 2 days of owning it, the Doris damages it



Shame as it was spotless! Man booked to repair it...

In other news, I drove it to London the other day and it was a real pleasure watching TV while the Doris is at the shops is also a nice feature!

One less mouthbreather on the planet - fear not .... there's a billion more being made on council estates, countrywide.

I suspect more people wish they had your disposable to lob at your 'whim of the moment'

Surprised you don't register yourself as a trader and get cheap insurance, for the length of time you keep hold of cars it might even save you money - have them as 'company' vehicles?

Owning this car confirms that you are indeed a homosexual. That is all.

P.S you know Range rovers have the best fuel consumption of all 4x4's?? - That's because they are always being towed by something else.

It's the North; the 'exclusive' Darras Hall estate (or 'Darras Hell' if pronounced with the correct local accent) is awash with Range Rovers.
