If you can get near to Mr Barrett you are doing very well. Just getting by his dogs would be an achievement. Everyone in the car trade knows him, so no you can have that one for free. I am not releasing any more of my contacts now anyway, serious damage was done with the Gib contact, never again, sorry.

2010 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 XS Auto Galway Green

I can't understand this. two transporters fell over? at the same time? at the same place?

Something tells me that statistically this isn't that likely to happen.

Can anyone supply more of the reported details.
