This assumes, of course, that the driver can still breathe.

LMAO!!

There's a classic old Land Rover magazine ad, where they have a double-page ad that on the left shows a Land Rover 109 next to a white picket fence in front of a house.

On the right they show a Bentley, in front of the same picket fence of the same house.

On the bottom half of the Bentley page it shows a little inset with the optional Bentley grill, or the optional Rolls-Royce grill. On the other side, on the Land Rover page, it shows the optional tire-on-the-hood, and tire-not-on-the-hood.

On each page, around the inset photos there is a 12-point description of the finer points of each vehicle. The pages are in every respect a mirror image of each other.

The captions to each photo, however... on the Bentley page the caption is: "In the new Bentley, at 6OMPH on the highway they only thing you can hear is the tick of the clock".

But the caption to the Land Rover is: "In this Land Rover at 60MPH the only thing you can hear is THE ROAR OF THE ENGINE".

That's about the time I fell in love with Land Rovers. :-)
