    Use to drive at 80+ in Zafira got there quicker. But now that I'm driving a 2 1/2 ton brick I enjoy driving at 65 knowing that the engine will happily sit there and it's sooo comfy too!!

    What to take on a long trip?

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Drove from Oban to Glencoe. Then toward Glen Etive where they filmed part of Skyfall. Then onto Stirling down the M73, M74, M6, A66, A1, A63 then home. My Disco 2 was flawless for the whole journey!
