I suddenly adore my Land Rover even more.....
Top Gear has always judged vehicles based on overall design and function merit - not its popularity or sales volume. If it does what it was designed to do - they give it praise. It it does NOT do what it was designed to do they give it hell.

The votes have been counted and the Land Rover is a clear winner with 29 percent of the vote. Here's how the others measured up: McLaren F1, 17 percent; Audi Quattro, 16 percent; Jag E-Type, 15 percent; Ford Mustang, 10 percent; Citroen DS, 6 percent; Fiat 500, 4 percent; Black Cab 2 percent and Rolls Royce Silver Cloud 1 percent.

After such lengthy service, the Land Rover really deserves a knighthood, but the greatest car award will do nicely.

Whilst appreciating that this may be news to you, I think that the votes were counted a couple of years ago.

and the defender is in the sub zero sectiion of the cool wall

What's the fuss about GST BTW?

Fuss about GST? Which one? It's been in existence for years and years, but there are still many!

I guess your country went through the same problems and whatnot over VAT when it was introduced.....
