Thats a rather unfair comment, Hendrik. You are talking about The Best 4 x 4 x Far

You listen to Englishmen, they will more than likely actually pronounce Land Rover as "Lanrover". Another one is Bedford, spoken as "Bedfud"...........etc.

Pronounciation is all about where you come from, hear Americans speak about English place names, they say it how it is written, here is one for instance, "War - ses - ter".....meaning Worcester. Strange really as a lot of these English place names are also found in the USA.

Right, I'm off to bed, leave you all to caary on, put the light out when you've finished
