Now you've jinxed yourself.

Yes. Over there. And under rocks.

Buy a Toyota.

Romania. If you get stuck there, someone will steal it and get it out of the swamp for you.

This is interesting.

Those are in the Rover ALL the time. Often there are other more powerful calibers in tow. Plus, I dare you to stand there while I shoot you with with either the .22 or the .410. ;)

For me, I always have a .22 rifle and a .410 shotgun in the RRC when enjoying the freedom of the road. Often I'm wearing a side arm as well, because I frequent scary places.

Well thank you, John. Welcome to the Zone. If you're up on Range Rover classics, I may ring you up.

I'd like them to lead us on a trip to Moab. We could drink beer and then shoot the cans with our guns. Aren't the Pyrenees a brand of tyre?

Welcome. Are you a football hooligan?

I live on the western slope of the Colorado Rockies and I own some Rovers.

Yeah. There's some sound advice....

It must be a form of redemption, or such.

Water pump or stuck thermostat.
