I am sure that there are some steam engines around that will just not stop but it doesn't mean I want to have one under my bonnet.

people have 1. no need for big engined cars over there
2. they cant afford to fuel big engined cars

being as though australia is such a small percentage of the consumer market for Land Rover, Me thinks they are going to design for the majority not the minority
