Noddy's plod not traffic, the fastest thing he gets to go around in is a pair of trainers.

I hope you're not planning a trip to Oxfordshire in the near future, Molly. I reckon you'll be fitted up for every unsolved crime in the county!

I'm mentioning no names, but lookout!

Do they still set fire to cottages in your area?

Totally agree with the first bit and after yesterday i have got to agree that the RR sport is tops.Spent a rather enjoyable afternoon testing Landrover products around our test track at Gaydon, one of which was the 4ltr super charged RR sport.Speeds approaching double the legal, no traffic cops there ,the growl from engine alone brings a smile to your face
Don't forget it can also get you out of the dodo if required . I suppose i could be accused of being slightly biased but hey they are awesome vehicles
