Completely wrong, you did not have to enter the motorway, the broken white line at the end of the slip way is a give way line, only cross it when it is safe to do so. Poor driving was the fault here not the Range Rover.
What about a landcruiser? Not sure about the tax bands but the 3.0td towed my caravan like it wasn't even on the back
Thanks for that enlightening insight. Maybe i should've stopped at the line, indicated and waited until there was no traffic at all in lane 1? That's at about 3am on the M25 there so i'd only have had to sit there for 9 hours. Or maybe i should've driven down the hard shoulder until i made it to 50mph to merge?
Another know-it-all Norman for my ignore list. Bye.
Disco3/4? people will have concerns over complexity but they are dam good cars if you get a good one. Independent garages are comfortable working on them now too. For that money you could probably get one that's gone through its expensive phase and had the belts, arms, bushes, diffs and air compressor done. My earlier ones were in the lower tax bracket and I towed heavy for miles they don't bat and eyelid at it.
I would avoid a P38. My mate has a 4.0 V8 one, i towed a twin-axle caravan with it and it was horrendously slow. Joining the M25 with a short slip road, at full throttle and it barely managed to hit 35mph before i had to move into lane 1. With a 6-axle concrete pump bearing down on us at 56 i thought my day was about to get drastically worse.
I think you may have been in Low-Range

Ford F150 - would be a great tow car and the one we drove in the US when we were out there got 27mpg (thats converted to imperial gallons not the weird US ones). Being LHD will be a negative but that doesnt stop me wanting one! Although looking at a few just now they may be over budget - they do come up under £10k
Disco 4 is strong money for what they are but a world apart from a disco 3
AFAIK there isn't a big 4x4 like Pathfinder, Shogun, Land Cruiser etc which won't be in the £500pa road tax bracket.
