Do the math

Post by Ian » Tue Mar 04, 2014 5:47 am

My local newspaper (in Malibu, California) featured my Dormobile as ride of the week last week. This week, the featured ride is a Shelby Mustang with a humongous turbo charged, nitrous injected motor that is rated at 975Hp. :aaagh:
Makes the 67Hp of my Dormie seems pretty measly by comparison. But on the other hand, I'm never going to be stopped for speeding. :nana1:

I thought that the article had disappeared into the ether but Robin tracked it down here:

Curiously, the Dormie was one of the top viewed articles on line in the local newspaper that week. Perhaps it was a curious fascination with the unusual and/or the eccentric. Or an excess of ex-pats pining after home? As a passing thought, there are probably 5 or 6 series Land Rovers living in Malibu. Okay, I own 2 of them, but still - who would of thought?

Cheers,
Ian
