Well we run a 3 year old Discovery TDV6, our second landrover. Yup it certainly is a gas guzzler, but is def the right car for us. We were one of those dreaded familys who drove a 4 x 4 in the city before we moved out to rural life, and woe betide anyone who has a go at me! Our old Landrover helped to save my daughters life, I took her to the Docs as she was unwell, the rash was covering her body with incredible speed - yup it was Meningitis and I did not recognise the signs at home. We lived in the West End of Glasgow, this was busy a Friday afternoon at 4.30 and the River Kelvin had flooded the Ambulance could not get through, the roads were gridlocked. The Doc said I was to drive and we would have to take her to hospital ourselves we eventually made it through the traffic and the floods and my daughter was rushed into intensive care. Thankfully she survived with no physical disibility but it took her a long time to recover, the Docs at the hospital said us taking her and the quick action of my G.P saved her. Anyway on a lighter note, we car share with 2 other families for the school run so it carries 6 big kids with plenty of space for all their gear,its transported our aged Mothers around who live/have lived with us and of course its a great workhorse around the place pulling ponies/pigs/sheep. We are happy to do trailer runs for friends who may need it. Yeah for the 4 x 4 's!
