| All I've ever done is buy the stick on deflectors. To be really honest, when we go in the summer we don't even bother as we're normally tucked up in bed before it gets dark! |

| No heated seats or heated front screen either. I guess in hot countries they change the spec of the HSE compared to the wet and frosty UK!! |

I put them on the roof. 4 roof mounted cycle carriers fit on roof bars. Nice and easy, as long as you've got very long arms!
Couldn't have a tow ball carrier due to needing bikes and caravan at the ... |

| Well the balance of evidence seems to point at not worrying about the DPF too much. All I need to do now is persuade the wife that it's worth spending another £10k so I have a slightly different radi ... |

So here's the problem. I have a very nice 2010 HSE, but I've never really liked the pre-face lift interior. But I do like the fact I don't have a DPF.
So if I get a 2013 MY HSE, I'll get the nicer ... |

| Just had a great day on the East Devon Trec Day. I still can't believe how I can waft along the motorway surrounded by leather and toys, and then in the same car negotiate terrain like that! Amazing.

| I learnt a long time ago that towing with an auto will always be better than with a manual, but with the weak FL2 clutch it does seem especially true on this car. My van is pretty heavy too, and my H ... |

I tried A Plan first, but they said they don't do 1 off days... I've tried every insurance company on the web, and can't seem to get 1 day cover for an event.
I wish land rover had pointed out such ... |

Car, van and awning all get the thumbs up from me. It looks like a really cool rig.
I haven't tried the inflatable awnings yet, how do you rate them?? |
