5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto

Sounds about right. It was some big lump but it was filthy dirty as well . That's why I didn't notice the make then as they are one weird ugly motor.  Jaguar x-type sport gone
Jaguar x-type 2.2d sport one of my best cars ever sadly gone
Freelander 2 GS auto 2008 most unreliable ever ! gladly gone
Freelander 2 GS manual 2013 only time will tell !

A bit off topic (but this is the off topic forum). Yonks ago I was behind a small van and a sign on the back said "The driver of this van is a blind man". I wondered how a blind man managed to drive (this was long before self driving cars) until the van pulled in and parked and on the side it said "Venetian blinds, Roller blinds, Louvre blinds".

Best ''bumper sticker'' ive seen was a learner school car with ''please don't smash my back door in'' written across the boot.

I have no idea what it meant but I was told it was funny

The best number plate I've seen.

Think that was "owned" by Steve Parish 🏍 racer? SD4 HSE Lux Orkney Grey,Full size spare tyre,Ugly kid glass.

A friend of my mothers has T8 on a little Alfa hatchback, her father used to have T6 and T7 as well, must be worth a fortune. She said that car park ANPR cameras don't recognise it as a valid plate and she always has to go the booth, might well be the same with digital speed cameras, be worth having.

My mates son returned from a years stint as part of his university engineering course working for Apple in California earlier this year. He shipped his Camero back to the UK complete with his California registration plate. You can choose your own registration out there as long as no-one else has it and it costs a paltry $25.

Here it is being picked up at the docks over here. He couldn't get the word 'Diamond' on the plate as it was too long so he settled for the symbol next to the plate!

He actuallyonce owned the similar PEN 15, when it was sold to a reg company it was offered at all sorts or silly prices and I think they still own it. Apparently said Mr Parrish also owned 60CK... what do you expect from the best mate of legendary "lady killer " Barry Sheene  2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership
