Had Enough
That's it I've had enough I'll be putting my 90 up for sale this week, I just can live with myself driving such a heavy car gulping all that fuel and polluting the atmosphere. I've decided to buy a Toyota Prius so I can continue my life with a guilt free conscience. So anyone wants to buy a few extras get in touch. Big Cry Original Member Pie n Pea Club.

I've been considering the exact same thing. Running the defender isn't really a viable option at the moment, and I'm tired of abuse from ecowarriors. I'm going to be joining the Cycle2work scheme, and just buy something like a polo or clio for trips and the weekends. I'm going to miss the old girl so much. Maybe when the economy has sorted itself out, and stephen hawking has figured out how to re freeze the ice caps, then I'll go back to the defender. it's just too much of a burden to bear at the moment, and I feel bad about it. 110 Tdci Double Cab

On the plus side, at least you know that your defender will be put to good use, towing these broken ones around : http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8505402.stm 110 Tdci Double Cab

Well you've persuaded me.

There I was - about to buy Kens lights but now I'm going to have to trade in for a real car.

Shame - I was really enjoying the Defender.

I can't quite bring myself to buy something as reliable as a Polo so I'll take my chances dicing with death and the Prius.
