Hi and welcome.

I can't speak for everyone but the majority seem to run Citroën/Peugeot or VolksWagon/Audi with the occasional Lawnrover thrown in.

What's this word "breakdown" you use.

If you were an occasional Land Rover owner, you'd understand the meaning of breakdown.

And welcome to the wiki and forum, biobill.

I read your posts, that's why I'm not and never will be.
