Not quite, the presenter got the thing stuck, the local Defender driver came along took control and showed him how to go on. :lol: :lol:

Must admit for the price I would rather buy a Disco 3

It just seems 4x4's are starting to look more and more like your average car. I don't doubt this is a good car and good off road, but I'm not sure I like all the switches and strange settings!!

I like my seperate transfer gear stick. :D

I like mechanical joints. So much easier to ment and you know if it has engaged properly or not!!

Post by: V8MoneyPit on November 21, 2006, 18:24:14: I think the new Freebie just looks like any other 'urban 4x4' now. Frankly it's hard to tell from a Nissan Entrail.... sorry X-trail :lol: The interior is nice... follows the D3 lines. But I still prefer the look of the old Freebie.

And as for the price :shock: If I understand correctly, they *start* at Ã‚Â£22k!

Post by: smo on November 21, 2006, 18:34:47: I think it looks nice, and the engines they are using are fantastic. Shame about the price though as even entry level is D3 money (second hand) and as you move up higher your well into new D3 or 2nd hand rangie money!!

Another thing about fith gear....VBH....god dam she's lovely :lol:

Sorry, she's too annoying.

Suzie Perry is much better looking and much better presenter.
