    Which is one reason why I bought a Land Rover, only proper 4wd with an engine that isn't ridiculously large.

    I think v8 Landys get a bad rap re fuel economy when you look up the sorts of fuel consumption of V8 Cruisers and Patrols, which are certainly at least comparable with the Landy V8.

    But I'll still keep my tdi thanks10-11l/100 km whether towing or not. 8)

    I've waited 17 years (since the Disco was first introduced) before I could be the proud owner of "The Swiss Army Knife of SUVs"! This statement is for all Rovers, not just the Disco!

    So I disregard its fuel consumption! I give it what's needed for me to enjoy!

    Yeah, but if you put a bullet through a petrol tank, the car will blow up! With a diesel, you'll just lose your fuel.


    has to be a tracer---

    and V8's move too fast to get shot
    I think I saw them try that one out on mythbusters. No matter what they did they couldn't get the car to blow up. :roll:[/b][/quote]

    But were they using a .50cal?? :?:

    I would rather like a Supercharged Rangie Vogue.

    I’m not sure but I think they did use a .50 cal. And if it is they used the same rifle on the myth of how far in a bullet will travel if shot in to the water.
