Please tell me its not true, I don't want the manufacturer of a car, especially my car, based (if you read and believe their latest website) on motorsport to start selling fcuking travel rugs. Or have these been available for a while and I've just not seen them?

Anyway, just for the record, I'll say it again, how the fcuk do the images of awesome performance, motorsports, individual designs, hanbuilt engines and cars etc, etc, go together with cozy travel rugs for grannys fcucking sciatica?

If it means the Doris doesn't give you any grief, becuase a soft top is "too damn cold" - then it's a result.

A travel rug is a very handy thing to keep in the boot of the car. You can use it for all kinds of things, not just keeping warm with!

I'm obviously out on a limb here, sidelined into a parrallel universe, divorced from everbody else's reality where having a travel rug "has a 1000 uses, one of which keeps the Doris happy". I'm going for a brisk lie down in a darkened room, followed by a refreshing cuppa.

Torqemada - I can certainly see your point, and I was only joking! Does seem a bit odd... but if it brings in revenue to help continue the development of the cars... surely that's a good thing?

Oh, and I'll have a brew too!

OK then. Can't resist a challenge!

1000 reasons why a travel rug is better than a man (edited to add...) part 1

1. A travel rug is always there when you need it.
2. A travel rug is machine-washable.
3. You can sit on a travel rug when you have a picnic.
4. You can fold your travel rug up and put it in the boot when you get fed up with it.
5. You can have a variety of travel rugs for all occasions.
6. A travel rug won't complain if you spill coffee on it.
7. A travel rug is always there to snuggle up to when you're in a snuggly mood.

Howzat for starters?!

8. When you get bored with your travel rug, you can throw it in the bin and it won't complain.
9. Travel rugs don't interrupt while you're watching telly.
10. Travel rugs don't sulk if you eye up other travel rugs.

Can I stop now?!

Some of those are debatable ..... like why wouldn't you want to sit on a man and eat a picnic??

11. A travel rug won't tell it's mates if you fart on it.
12. A travel rug will never comment that your bum looks big in it.
13. A travel rug will never dump you and go and live with a better looking owner.
14. Travel rugs are great listeners.

They mean you can drive around with the hood off even in the middle of winter, and your other half can't complain that she's too cold. Works for me...
