Just getting ready to go out tonight when there was a knock at the door, my wife answered and found a policeman standing there who told us ' your Range Rover is on fire ' . You've guessed it I'd fired up the FBH to warm up the car before heading out and he'd spotted it as he drove passed.. 2008 G4 RRSport TDV8 current

Very unusual for them to be so observant, let alone come and let you know.  John

Did he check your tyres whilst he was there ?

No he didn't, didn't check the lights either but then they don't bother around here going by the number of cars driving with lights out. Some of the cars that come into our garage wear the tyres down to the rim before they fit new.. 2008 G4 RRSport TDV8 current

My mate who s a traffic cop can't help inspecting The tires of every vehicle on my driveway every time he visits .

Hi,

My neighbour is one too.

We broke off "Diplomatic Relations" when I told him he couldn't leave his job at work!

Every time he talks to people he has that tone/attitude like he's just pulled you over a the roadside.

He even accused one of the old boys in the village of running his Disco on red diesel!

Great to see you getting actively involved, Ryan, but Camelrock doesn't have an issue; the smoke from the Fuel Burning Heater is relatively normal and can often be mistaken for a fire by those unfamiliar with it.  Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Just an obsevation, Ryan has made himself look totally foolish on here by his comment, it is obvious to me that he either knows nothing about the marque he represents, or just couldnt be bothered to read the full dialogue. 07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater )))
