To be honest mate I am actually quiet tempted by your landy. Doing about 45mpg is pretty good. I thought you were going to say about 28. My disco does 23mpg on a good run.

Disco has mot on thursday. I shall see what suprises it comes back with then I can do calculations to see if I can actually run 3 cars and if running 3 is a sensible viable option too.

If it was tax exempt I would have been round to yours and had it off your hands by now.

I shall let you know but dont hold it for me etc. Pm me more details inc tax and mot length and anything else about it.
