I'll give it a wash then get snapping. Bless it, it did Newcastle and back to in one day yesterday... From Cambridge. 9 hours driving, 600 odd miles and it didn't miss a beat!

You are right, I have fitted wind deflectors. They were arriving for the blue one but this got them instead. Quite effective— you can drive with the window down and not emerge looking crumpled. It was either those or a haircut.

Are those deflectors genuine or one of the aftermarket sets that turn up on Ebay - I'm considering buying a set for the 4x4.
