I always thought the flying spagetti monster sailed a yacht.

A DC8 is his preferred mode of transport but if your marooned on some back water planet and all you could get was freelander it would probably do. Might be hard to reach the top of the volcanoes though - clearance, that sort of thing.

The head of one god's local franchise on this planet is reported to be partial to RR but on the whole though I think all gods (and pirates too) would pretty much agree a 101 would be cool.

Good point. I can't imagine any god risking looking uncool by admitting to not wanting a 101, even if they really didn't.

One for work, one for play.

Given that there are thousands of documented deities, realistically and practically speaking we're looking at a seven seater. The new RRS may be a bit small in the third row for when Thor and Helios start arguing in the back, so it can only be a D4. The Hindu god Shiva may struggle with the leather interior, but that's ok, room for someone else.
The new suspension height "Off World" and Terrain Response settings "Asteroids and Zero Gravity" that have been developed specially would of course make the D4 the only choice for the discerning deity.

The boot space in the D4 is large enough to store all the required fireballs to smite the unbeliever, and with all round airbags, safe enough to ensure that the immortal beings stay immortal.

The suspension gives a magic carpet ride, which when your poor old bones have been around since the beginning of time, is very welcome.

Good points all. But if this mob was heading out on an expedition to the far reaches of the galaxy, or travelling on-site whilst constructing others I think they could do far worse than a convoy of fully kitted out 110 Tdi Defenders. Parts would be relatively easy (even in more remote areas), the ride acceptable and wind noise minimised by travelling in the interstellar void. They could probably pick up and refit some ex-Camel trophy vehicles and have a bit of fun along the way pretending they're in Borneo or something...

The issue with a Defender is that Neptune (or Poseidon to his Greek mates) may well leak out, given that a small child could limbo through the panel gaps. However, if you were to choose a LR to have a Dionysian style orgy in, you would probably relish the hose-clean properties of an older Series interior.

Some of the gods are quite busy, such as the ancient Egyptian Osiris, who's portfolio included the underworld, fertility and agriculture. If you have as much on as that, then you'd probably want a Supercharged RRS to be able to get to your next conception, death or harvesting as quickly as possible.

The Norse god Hödr, blind as he was, would most likely not get much enjoyment out of driving any of the Land Rover range, unless he was trying to frighten the pants off Loki to get his own back.
