What a great find Thumbs Up

Although a sad reminder of what is about to be taken away and replaced with a generic unrecognisable 4x4 Big Cry


"I don't really wanna wanna talk about it!"

This was a generation ago, but fast forward to 41:00 for Alexi Sayle's wonderful character's reaction to the news of the loss of "our car" in the cult classic "Private Life of the Ford Cortina". I now know exactly how he feels! Big Cry

I loved the original review - you can combine a reasonable review with a bit of humour after. But the Cortina video - brilliant!

Can you drive a D4 around in low suspension setting? I assumed it would be the same as D3 and pick itself up if you go over 15. (6:40 through the video)


The suspension on the D4 will rise, just the same. It helps me keep the speed right down in limited headroom multi story car parks Rolling Eyes

I can't see anywhere where it's obviously at low setting though. Would you care to double check the 6:40 figure?


He describes being able to drive with the suspension down, just after explaining about 'riding on air'.
