I hear you can pick one up almost for the price of a top spec Freely2 in these financially challenged times Whistle Whistle
It would tow your tintent like a dream Nick, I'm sure you can justify leaving the F2 at the dealers for longer than it takes to fix your broken car. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

My made up busy day, has been great in ther TDV8, what an engine Bow down

Bit worried about the 21.1mpg i have managed, compared to others published on here, but it was fun and tested my speed camera detector a few times, as it so easy to be over the limit with the car pulling away so easy.

Not keen on the cruise control, as when going down the motorway, with it set at 70mph Whistle and a car pulls out on you it slows, but doesn't speed up quick enough if your pulling out and it catches said car. So i ended up pulling out in to the fast lane but the car started to break, quick press of the pedle soon sorted that out though

Shame i will never be able to afford the P11D value so i am stuck with the FL2 (when i bring myself to take it back)

FL2 is nice, but all this talk of new engines 3.0L this 5.0L that, makes me want something abit faster, but still diesel to give the FL2 a burst of speed like the TDV8. But all i hear is landrover making FL2's turn off its engine when your at the lights or stop to let a granny cross the road, which doesn't do anything for me

I want V8 Power and noise Cool

At my dealers (Armstrong Massey, York) they have a few on offer, but been company car i pay tax on the full new value (P11D), so even if i went out and bought a near new one for what my dad/boss would spend on me, the tax would screw me Big Cry
