I had an old bit of loose carpet in my old Lightweight, does that count ?

Depends.

Did it have an unidentified stain and an odd odour? If so, then I think you
should be OK...
 
Strange you mention them I saw one two days ago with it's awful red paint/
undercoat. Did'nt know any had survived.

I agree a lightweight is a proper 4x4 (except its not lighter is it?)

for example an x3 is a 3series with bigger springs, less well built BMW
(who don't build it) which they charge 5 series prices for

I would buy BMW shares except they are all owned buy the daughter in law of
Goering

Also - In other words a GAP or Polo lifestyle accessory (except the shirt/
rugby shirt is not actually worse than the C&A/ M&S alternative?

They really do appeal to people with much money and little class

So who's building it? The Finns that do the Porsche Boxy? <googles>
<surprised> No - Steyr. Same people that did the G-class and European spec
Jeeps. Could be OK, then.

I sort of assumed it was built by BMW in 'merkinland, like the X5 and Z3/4.
 
R U admitting what a merkin is ?

A syrup is typical BMW but a merkin is SO SAD

actually not as daft as it seems my pal bought one new(ish) still under
waranty and took it up to Scotland well that was the idea it expired around
Penrith ( start from manchester airport) the dealer refused to honour the
guarantee as the car was not designed for such use i.e. motorway driving.
Makes you wonder what it was designed for housing chickens maybe

I'm not even sure which colours were stain and which were original so I
guess I got away with it.

Lost the Lightweight (V8) in my first divorce :-( hoping to get another
Landie soon though it will have to be something more practical, can't afford
12mpg any more.

Hold on a minute... You mean she didn't just say "Get out, and take that
rusty heap of crap with you?"

A woman that appreciates a v8 lightweight or a "real" Rangie? Blimey... Why
get rid of her?

two words "Divorce Settlement"
and by the time we finish paying and paying I'll be lucky to buy a 2CV- you
really have a 4x4 2CV ? I never realised the french had that much of a sense
of humour. I still stay by my original assertion two types of people I quote
the philospher
" to get muddy is automotive, to get really muddy requires four wheel
drive( unless you intend to be stuck all day)"

for the incurably curious the 4x4 2CV webpage

Well...

Speaking as the Premier drug dealer of Yorkshire, ex-wife of David
Beckham in a previous sex (when I was also a crap driver), and
purveyor of the finest prostitutes north of Lands End, I'd have to say
that I agree with you. Trolling ****tish post that you may have made
notwithstanding...

Where's mi curling tongs?

Remind me please, why I don't come here often?

Yup.

Nah, it's too daft a concept even for the french. Built in Buckinghamshire.

That's the Sahara built by Citroen in the 50s, and worth BEEEEEEG money
now.

Mine's one of these.

I don't think I'm any of those. I'm pretty sure my bank balance would be
healthier if I were.

I don't drive a Defender, either.

If you were to narrow it down to camp, incompetent "lifestyle" 4x4s, then
you may well have a point.

Any 4x4 with carpets, even.

Ah you mean Chelsea Tractors or hairdresser haulage, oddly I'm on my 8th 4x4
a humble scooby legacy estate ( for sale shortly- more ground clearance
req ) there are two sorts of people those who need a 4x4 and those who
believe they look good in them.

problem is most of them are not real 4x4's unless you listen to the likes of
Clarkson ( who has'nt a clue either). when people start to rant about the cd
player or the amount of acceleration on tar mac you begin to wonder where
their reality lies
