Brian Sewell's Grand Tour (DVD)

Advantages: get to see lots in short space of time
Disadvantages: don't get much time in each place

...VIP Tours of California - Grand Tour of Los Angeles On my way home from my GAP year away my husband and I decided to stop in LA. We stayed in a Holliday Inn hotel near LAX, once we arrived here we found a brochure on VIP Tours and decided to go on what they call the most popular tour which was called the 'Grand Tour of Los Angeles'. It cost in American dollars $59 (adult) and $40 (child). One American dollar is roughly equal to roughly 0.6 United Kingdom Pounds. It was very easy to book this tour with the representative in our hotel for the next day. We had a few different times we could have chosen to go on out tour. On the morning of the tour a bus lifted us at the hotel and took us to their offices so we could pay for the tour and change buses to start the tour.

Advantages: hilarious outtakes
Disadvantages: none

...This is an excellent dvd seeing the tour from one players perspective. Hilarious out takes and a conversation between Frank O'Driscoll and Leinster legend Ken Ging. It also details his views on the tour including that incident. It is worth a buy and have a laugh at the lions captain/irish and leinster captain doing outtakes alone at his old school at Blackrock College. This is one of the series for the lions tour dvd. There are some clips of the matches on tour as well as the events in between matches. A good buy, would recommend it as well as the others for the tour, looking forward to the next tour and see what happens on that one. This is a dvd the family can view.... Read review

Advantages: feeling gorgeous*...
Disadvantages: ...in an expensive dream car

.... The manual tells that this is quite normal during the first 500 kilometers. The other hint taken concerned the breaking in: for the first 1500 km one should accelerate moderately, drive at different speeds and stay below 4500 rpms, a task which I followed eagerly, the speed limit for this period lies around 190 kph, a mark probably not being able to pass save on German motorways.... Time to start with the interior features: simple access at premium functionality sums up in short what you can expect from the dashboard, the 7´´ touch screen allows control of audio, climate, navigation, CD player (swallows 6 and - in contrary to the SLK - cannot show the Rolling Stones on my "Forty Licks" DVD....) and bluetooth mobiles. The latter gadget has been critized by some people who realized that their phones were not compatible, so check with Jaguar... Read review
