Big news. was created by Lambert
So things are changing. For a start Dreadnaught is going to be needing a loving new owner. There will be a formal for sale advert in a few days. Now don't panic I'm not going anywhere, you're not that lucky. However I suspect I may be. I have just secured a 2018 automatic in charcoal/ anthracite/ dark grey with virtually no miles on. I would bombard your senses with pictures but I don't have any other than the selling dealer ones and I don't own those. There will be a short transitory period but Temeraire will be joining us soon. (Yes I have a thing about naming cars after Victorian ships of the line).

Ah, the Fighting Temeraire! isnt that tempting fate? 

Perhaps you need to take it to a French/Spanish 4x4 meet and see if they object to the name :)

Great news on the Jimny

Maybe but that Temeraire was one of the sister ships of Dreadnaught so it seems appropriate

I can't believe Dreadnaught will be sailing off into the sunset, glad it is being replaced with another Jimny though.

Thank you. I couldn't bring myself to get a 4 but Temeraire has just enough of the useful tech like ESC and Traction Control without some of the other things like lane departure and road signs recognition which I feel are unnecessary. Unfortunately she has tpms but I need to see just how low she will suffer that to be. It's not going to be a problem.

Also Dave don't use Titanic, I know you don't do water but the options for tempting fate after all your hard work!
