What bothers me about the ad to do with this, said that it was the Disco 3.  No, it wasn't the Disco 3, it was the sat nav which just so happens to be fitted to the Disco 3.  :roll:

Well seeing as the disco 3 was put in the plane, and it was this that had the sat nav fitted (and was designed for it) i'd say it was the D3 that navigated it over the trip :)

Good advert for Denso I guess....but HOW did they get the D3 to get the signal properly? The antenna doesn't work in a tunnel.....

Surely it didnt have anything to do with the Landy/Transit,

Landy hype and not very good hype either, :roll:  :roll:  :roll:
