How many 4x4's have you owned?
I'm on my 7th as listed below:-

1) Range Rover, B reg,2.5 petrol, blue

2) Shogun SWB, C reg, 2.5 petrol, blue

3) Land Rover LWB pick-up, ? reg, 2.5 petrol, ex Granada TV vehicle, bought at a farm auction

4) Discovery N reg, rioja red, 2.5 diesel

5) Discovery 04 reg, black, 2.5 diesel

6) Nissan Navara D22 Sport Pick-up, 54 reg, black, 2.5 diesel

7) Mercedez Benz ML270 CDi, 54 reg, black, 2.7 diesel (current vehicle)

Guess I like my 4x4's, but rarely keep them for more than 18 months, very fickle, like to try something different.   :wink:

As it says below.............

I had the Fronty for four years, but after being made redundant and getting a much lower paid job it had to go!! Especially as distance to work became twenty miles instead of two!!

Now got another job that pays a bit better, hence the Disco.
