What type of fuel do Land Rovers require?

Land rovers have two types of engine, diesel and petrol. The research that I did on Google seems to indicate that the petrol version runs better on premium grade fuel than regular due to the high compression engine. While I was investigating the answer I came across this brilliant article on landroverworld.Org; The Ten Commandments of Land Rover Ownership, which is so funny I thought I would include it for your amusement!

"1) Thou shall not Bling Bling thy Rover. Ghettoizing or installing 20" wheels, chrome wheels, or wheels with spinners is not allowed and is punishable by car crusher or forced sale on a shady used car lot.2) Thou shall never leave thy fellow Rover behind. Failure to assist a disabled or God forbid stuck Rover shall be punishable by banishment from his or her club or by keel hauling thru the mud with thy pants down.

3) Thou shall not drink and drive. It is permissible to drive first then drink. Drinking while driving is a jeep thing.

4) Thou shall not modify thy Land Rover for only trips to the mall, grocery store or soccer practice. Failure to frequently drive off-road a modified Land Rover shall bring upon the Owner the title of "Mall Queen" 5) Thou shall not sacrifice thy Land Rover as a parts truck without a proper Christening by 12 year old bottle of Scotch. Failure to first "Take a swig" shall make void the first Christening and shall force the Owner to buy another 12 year old bottle of Scotch and try again.

6) Thou shall wave while passing other Land Rovers regardless of type or gender. Failure of the other Rover driver to return a friendly wave may result in the first waiver to point his or her middle finger instead.7) Thou shall not use gas with an octane rating lower than 91. Smelly exhaust is a by product of Bad Gas.

Rover owners who have Bad Gas must camp down wind of the camp site.8) Thou shall not eat Egg Beaters for breakfast while on a Rover outing. Improper ingestion of Egg Beaters may contribute to smelly exhaust."My eggs will break" is not a legitimate excuse as real Land Rover drivers don't break their eggs while on the trail. Punishment for eating Egg Beaters is the forced drinking of warm Bud Lite for the remainder of the trip.

9) Thou shall not covet thy neighbor's rover.As a Land Rover Owner it is your responsibility to build a stronger more capable rover than thy neighbor's rover with at least a roof rack, hella lights, after market bumper, lift kit, sliders, winch, bigger tires and stickers.10) Thou shall not own more than 4 Land Rovers at any one time. Because the law of diminishing returns does not apply to Land Rover ownership, Rover Owners risk the law of bankruptcy or threat of divorce by spending all their time and money on maintenance and mods. " That covers most situations really doesn't it?

There is even a reference there to the type of fuel that Land rovers prefer. Apparently it was written by Gotrovr on lrrforums, well done to him!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
