Once again it makes me think that if I'm going have a accident in anything I'd rather have it in the Disco.

How many vehicles would you be able to open the front doors on after a hit like that.

Nasher. Heaven doesn't want me, and hell is afraid I'll take over.

That's exactly why I bought my first Disco ... driving M60 ( M63 when I started !! ) daily for 16 years, saw too many mangled cars on the road. Figured that the "flat out to avoid the other drivers" approach in the Fiat Panda wouldn't work forever.

How much do you think it will make at auction ? The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.
