It's an option on the touchscreen. You don't need her at all - the car does it all for you!

It won't be long before it'll be cheaper to bulk buy in France. Currently diesel is 1.098 Euro per litre (source AA roadwatch http://www.aaroadwatch.ie/eupetrolprices/) - that's about 75 pence in real money.

Poised to order a HSE diesel. Seems dealers are in panic. Offered £37,700 on a new HSE today.
Where is this then ?? still under £1 round here and 95p if you shop at a big supermarket.

[Back on topic for a mo]
Not too worried about £1 / litre. For a diesel D3 that does 30-35mpg, that's not going to make much of a dint in day to day running costs or residuals.
However... Much more worried about the punitive £1,800 rfl proposed. That will kill the residuals if my car is affected , and will also kill LR stone dead too if its core models come into the bands. Even if it tries to make engines / models to fit in the lower bands, the lead time for development & testing for a new model would mean it would be way out of time.
Off track for a moment: no-one seems to be mentioning how older cars are much more polluting than modern ones, nor how we should be cracking down on poorly maintained cars that spew fumes. Discovery 3 tdv6 7 seat Buckingham Blue
Had it since new - sold Jun 17 after 12 years and 214,000 miles

Thats because the whole CO2 debate / debacle has not been thought out properly. There is far too much hype surrounding the whole issue. Some very simple things can be done at / at work etc to rid the world of many tons.
