breakdown truck

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

That equates to 14.4 to 18 mpg in the UK so it does sound a bit ambitious but what the hey, it has this in the dashboard:

There won't be any '74's. AMC Jeeps were sold in the UK from '79 to about '83. Then they pulled out and came back in '94 as part of Chrysler.
