Hope he enjoys his new toy.

I suppose it’s all advertising for the eldest son of the Beckhams, after all now he is a brand name and a trademark it must be cash in the bank. The Beckhams have also trademarked the other three kids at the same time? Irritating as they all are, I’m sure it’s reassuring for the Beckham brats to know that they are all ‘brand names’ as opposed to human beings. Their mother Victoria reminds me of a female Fagin… ‘Make me money, my dears…’

I had to laugh when the Beckahms eldest kid was asked about his father’s IQ and he replied that ‘my dad is brighter than the sun’ was the fiery globe or the newspaper. For those who like Welsh Mountains and narrow boats have a look at my videos and photos at..

Same here.. Oddly what most stuck out to me was the whole caption of it being a "Giant" vehicle. It takes up less road space than a new mini or even the fiat 500! So why the whole size thing?

The fiat is 3571mm long the LR 3540 there about's. Width 1627 compared to 1680 for the LR, The Mini One is 1727 wide by about 3821 long! I could go on the Hyundai I10 is 3665 L by 1660 wide.

I won't get on my soapbox on the bigotry of the media against 4wd vehicles but they get a dig in where there can and a proportion of readers will believe everything they say and irrationally jump to conclusions.

Lucky him Thumbs Up Wouldn't we all like to have multi millionaire parents. I wont knock him for his cars, but he needs to sort his attitude out perhaps. He's a kid though, we were all one once. Good luck to him, it cant be easy growing up with the worlds press constantly after you.

I was thinking that it was a good move to have him in a landrover S3 as he, as most of his age, are more prone to having accidents and speed is one of the main issues there - so having a S3 will -
a - slow him down,
b- protect him more from little knocks
and c - give him something 'grown up' to drive that is better than the sports cars that he has been driving till now.

so Good on his folks in my book.

on a similar line-
The mech who serviced my 110 bought his 14 yr old son a S2a that was a non-runner for his birthday, then spent time teaching him how to renovate it from the ground up, so by his 17th birthday he had rebuilt it, knew how it all worked and respected the vehicle. He had more cool points than the lads with the hot hatches too.

just my thoughts

It gives me the same feeling I had when I saw his Mum being the spokesperson for the Evoque - no thank you. Rolling Eyes
