    That's very interesting because they're not road legal on UK roads!

    Anyone else think the wheelbase looks far to narrow, and overall top heavy?

    Oh really. Please explain how the mirrors meet Construction and Use Regualtions...and when you've done that perhaps you could move on to drive-by noise regs.

    All off-road vehicles look top heavy, it's because they're raised to imporve ground clearance for off-roading! The stuff up high is countered by a lot of heavy stuff low. The engine gearbox and lots of heavy stuff are down low. Dig out the Top Gear bus race and look at how difficult it was to topple a vehicle that looks top heavy like a double-decker bus!

    Please explain to me the dozens of Jackals I've seen on Britains roads over the last 8 months, including motorways, country lanes, towns etc.

    And the many that have been seen around North Devon in the last few months.

    Coaching done, training done - now she's just got to go out and do it. Brighton Marathon off you go.

    Success is never final and failure never fatal. It's courage that counts.

    In a nutshell, yes. If one of them is involved in an RTA then the driver and whoever authorised the journey is a world of legalistic hurt. See your PM.
