Re: SD4 GS not without faults.

[quote="staffsman"] Before this I ran an Audi A4 which I also loved but as I'm getting on I have back trouble so getting in and out of the Audi was beginning to get difficult. The LR is a perfect hight for me so on that score I am happy. However it isn't perfect.

You should have gone for the Audi Q7.

[quote] You should have gone for the Audi Q7 [Quote ] Mona Geeza

Just how does a £50,000 Audi compare to a £34000 LR?

Even If I had that kind of money I wouldn't want a car that is so large as to be impractical.

Have you ever tried parking a Q7? That is if you can find a space large enough?
I wanted a car I could get into without pain not something I could land aircraft on.

Satorini Black - how many times have you washed that today?

I have mine washed by a group of illegal immigrants working locally £7.50.
I don't know if I should fill it up today or get it washed

What problem is that? I'm guessing it's a main dealer?

Had I had my way I too would own one in Rimini red, but I'm married!

I do have the scratches and swirls, I just like to think of them as features or perhaps texture?
Luckily I don't have tinted windows so at least it doesn't look like a van!

£3.50 in Blackburn, obviously a better money laundering outfit so it keeps the prices down
