Title: I'M IN LOVE...
Post by: STMO123 on 11 August 2006, 18:18:09
Just got back ater six days of throwing my omega around the lake district. On the way there it was loaded up to the gills, there wasn't a spare bit of room anywhere.  Even weighed down like that it coped really well with the ups and downs (and believe me, there are plenty) and took the tight bends easily.
I couln't wait to get rid of the load, including wife and son, and make an excuse to go out for something. Well, I'll tell you...get your car up there and have a go. It was brilliant. I've read on parkers that with RWD you can give a beamer a run for its money and its certainly true.
I was nearly deliberately leaving something behind so I'd have to go back for it!
I was a bit worried going away with the EM light on but I needn't have been.

Hmmm.....imagine a 3.0ltr

I took my cousin for a ride took it to 70 in the Helford zone, went for a similar ride in his Discovery 50 but then we went down an impassible track - then back up again!
