Well having tried banning the 4x4 from London, it appears a secret group of mud-addicts have begun construction of a clandestine playground just down river from his lordships office!!

Its actually the demo area that is to be part of this years Motorshow at ExCeL. Wonder if maybe this will remind the lentil eaters that the only cars britian really produces are very thirsty, all-wheel drive or even both :)

Now, we would ask you to start playing nicely or you may find your welcome here rapidly wearing thin.

I would guess so, my first thought was a pinz, but as volvo are one of the three manufacturers using that area, and it is now parked on display ramps, I changed my mind to Volvo too.

I can see why folk think it's a Pinz - certainly looks like one.

They're now made by Auto-Technik in Surry, so could it be them thats there?

Any clues appreciated!

Mind you, if it's a Volvo, I'll happily stand corrected!  :lol:

cheers
