Well after seeing Billy Eilish, on the BRITs singing the new Bond theme, the Defender is the winner.

I know she is only young, but when is she going to learn to open her mouth and move her lips when singing ?

Already ahead of LR, I've discussed this issue in another forum for taking on holidays a pet gold fish:

'Place the fish in the nodal point of the car, probably as far forward as possible so it has the least movement.

You could place a small tank in a gimbal similar to a boat cooker but make it multi directional.

It wouldn't be difficult to add a bit on suspension to it as well with some 1/8 scale model car shock absorbers.

Maybe 1/5 scale is better, depends on size of tank. It would be a nice project!' Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Just a shame that those Triumphs are from Thailand, while the Land Rovers are from Slovakia...

I wondered when she she will learn to dress herself, looks like the chimps who were trying to finish the Shakespeare prose gave up and became her dressers instead. Regards

Lovely i6 has now gone, but not me......

Please let me know if anything in my post offends you, as I may wish to offend you again......

Well done guys! I'm sure when her Freely has an issue Billie will come hear and also get some tips from the experts on how to be a global singing star.
