Re: HOW SAFE ARE WE?

Agreed that modern cars are safer, but does that lull you into a false sense of security. I am often 'cut up' by drivers pulling in front of me (then usually braking) where I have left a decent braking distance. If I then plough into them, I would get the blame. Defensive driving is your best option...

Apologies Louise! I should have realised before I posted this that the eagle-eyed forum would have beaten me to it.

Minor Jaguar

You may have seen the picture of this Jaguar XK150/Minor Traveller. It shows how much more practical Jaguar owners find the Minor!
