If you drive an old Landrover with the galvanised steel bumpers hanging off
you get a lot of respect in the street which is to say people get out of the
way.  The wealthy classes prefer Range Rovers and the middleclasses use
diesel Discoveries to pull the horse box/boat or take little children to
school. What Clive says about fuel prices is correct.  About 78pence a litre
which is £3.55 an imperial (8pint) gallon which can't be far off $5.70.
