Which is fucking stupid, cos an A Class has four doors and isofix and it was only one child.
Have you seen the amount of 'essential sprog support' kit that they have to carry around? Should have got a Transit. :D

They are the kings of the TLGP - about 600bhp and 600 ft/lb as standard, through a proper quattro 4wd system (and £20 of fuel spent every time lol).

Horrid things no doubt driven exclusively by horrid people.
it's certainly not a Q8 -
Q7? :D
yeah - I was thinking about the petrol supplier as I typed ..

No, I was suggesting that yours is a Q7 (as opposed to a Q8...which has a footprint the size of Kuwait and is probably very popular there if fuel is 2d/gallon). :D

Last time I looked it was an 18 month wait and minimum $250,000 for a Kindigit custom.

Either of those things would stop me :D In fact, both are.
