    I had a non-landrover vehicle once, that slowed and slowed while accelerating
    as if building up some sort of resistance. Finally at 30 mph and foot on the
    floor, it completely disintergrated it's exhaust by blowing it into a million
    pieces like a shotgun blast. There was shredded muffler material all over the
    road and under the car. After that it ran very well indeed, loud but well.
