Overheard someone talking to someone that was going to supply her a temporary vehicle. She was very concerned that the car should be at least a 2.0 as she intends to dive on the motorway.

I assume they offered a beemer, because she said

€œI dont know anything about BMWs I drive a Jaguar.
I dont know if they can be driven on the motorway.€

How the other half lives! I used to take my 1.0 Metros from London to Preston & back on the motorway on a regular basis (leaving Jaguars and BMs eating my lead!)

Luxury! I used to do long journeys in a thing with a wooden floor that topped out at 52mph. Eventually.

One guy I worked with drove from Manchester to deepest Cornwall and back
in one of those small, 4-wheel, rear-steer cranes with a top speed of
12mph !!!
