I would say that if she is auto she would be in Park and if she is manual she sould be in first gear so I guess it's not only the handbrake they rely on. FREELANDER 2 TD4 SE (XS UK) IZMIR BLUE SIDE STEPS COLD PACK BI-XENON TINTED WINDOWS - AND PROUD OF HER

Don't think they took the chance as their insurance would either have been invalidated or the premium would have rocketed.
Anyway certainly makes you want one.
Am inclined to say that they drove her up.

Do you not think that under the blue tent is the lifting equipment that tilts the ramp up after they drive the fl2 onto it? or am I spoiling the fun? At work
