Default Hello from Europe!!

So, thought I would sign up and make some of my fellow Americans a bit jealoous as I have a 2008 Defender...and yes, it is everything that it is cracked up to be. I am getting about 26 miles per gallon on mixed driving...sixth gear really helps a lot. Air blows cold very quickly, heat is too hot, seat warmers are toasty...
ask any qustions that you would like to know. ps, I will try to post an interior shot as someone a while ago wanted one as well as any other pics that you would like.
Cheers from Switzerland!

John
