    SWMBO Change of opinion...

    Funny thing is "Life"...

    When I first took SWMBO out in Lady Sarah, she was not positive in her opinion of my intelligence, the car's functionality and potential co$t. - and they were the compliments !

    However, over the last few months, various of our other family vehicles have been disabled/damaged/etc and the fall-back position has always been..."Dad... can I ....?" Even reminding (apprentice mechanic) son of his vile accusations of "unreliability" does'nt stop him...

    Today, Wife's magnificent Magna has a cracked radiator, the Mazda commuter car is a MANUAL, so the Household Manager has taken, yes, TAKEN 'Sarah' out all day. The excuse being that the Mazda is low on fuel...

    Nothing to do with higher seating, ease of entry/egress, and the Auto box being easier for her damaged knee.

    Will be interesting to see if she has learned to WAIT for Sarah to lower down to 'Access Height' ...


    Funny how the opinions change....

    Sounds like the first steps towards either you driving a Magna.... or becoming a two Land Rover family to me

    .. I'll wait till she's back home before I crow about the 'least reliable car on earth' being the only one working when the other 'reliable' oriental cars aren't playing the game....

    Magna is a vastly under-rated car. I don't begrudge the valve-stem seals dying at 280K, everything else on the engine is fine and no leaks, - pity the seats and seat position are not as good as the Classic's.
