There is also a nice U tube video featuring the RED DWARF actor , Chris somebody .

It's the background to Land Rover developement and the video features a restored 80" . He takes it for a drive and gets it very dirty . A pristine restoration, I wouldn't be happy if it was my car :mad::mad: .

Hi All

They have been advertising DVD's of the series lately.

Watching Coast does make a change from compulsive channel surfing due to the other repulsive rubbish that's on.

Not watching telly does give me more time on AULRO though! :BigThumb:

Cheers Arthur
