    Won't work. The crooks will riot and refuse to get in. The D5's so FUGLY they wouldn't be seen arrested in one

    Seriously, I followed one down the highway yesterday for my first decent look and couldn't believe how absolutely ****ing ugly it was. My yardstick for ugly 4WD used to be a toss up between Ssangyong Musso and Suburu Tribeca but the D5 trumps these two, it's got to be a 'lay down misere' for the fugliest 4WD of all time.

    Even worse than the old model Ssanyong Korando (~ early 2000's) ?!!??

    D5(while not pretty, and not a fan!) is a 'work of art' compared to that old dog.

    Gee wiz I don't know what is wrong with you guys. I rate the Ssangyong Musso, Ssangyong Korando, the first of the Mahindra Pik-Ups and even the Hyundai Terracan to be some of the worlds best and most desirable car designs. I haven't seen a D5 yet.

    At least with the Cambridge Blue F100's three big fat bun faced NSW coppers could fit across the bench seat. Try that with a Thai or Chinese rice grinder.

    English police use Discos no problems.
    Around here it seems to be Camrys and Hyundais.

    A mate sunk his Toyota hardtop at the Wellington Point boat ramp. He was cruising the auctions looking for another. He 'phoned me to tell he had bought a Musso. I asked him if it was pink.
