    Proper Range Rover

    No mate ,she will probably still be around when the last of the modern Range Rovers electrics have gone pop or out of fashion with footballers wives, and I have seen more modern Range Rovers covered in more rust than mine has.

    Overheating,argh.

    Took her with me to Tidworth at the weekend and she crept to the red each time i got to a hill and that has been the problem for a while ,overheating under load.
