    Anyway - the best thing you can have from a safety point of view is an ability to drive safely and avoid the 's in the first place.
    Thankfully they're all marked with a blue and white "spinning propeller"

        Land Rover Defender.

        Sockpuppets co has just got one. Fully reclaimable for VAT and Corp tax as classed as van not car so the OTR bill was reduced to below £20k of "real" cash that I can't send my way. Also low ish BIK.

        Still got my focus with 180,000 miles on the clock I will use for the heavy mileage (current 1000 miles a week to client co) and keep the defender as my weekend car (sorry van) for hauling me and the dogs around. Fuel cost around the same for each considering vat reclaim and corp tax effect.

          If you're a knob, yes. Oh - but you're in an M3 so OK.

            Can it hit 62 mph in 4.7 seconds and can it do 186 mph?

            If not, I'll take the Alpina B3 instead.
