Just thought about it that the members map in ideal for car theft on demand.
Easy to find your car.... 
But if your neighbour has a lexus, RRS or Cayenne, you don't have to worry 
Our "utility vehicle" is not so trendy 
only for real guys and real ladies!

They wouldn't get off the drive, the Kids puked in it the other day and there's a right hum about it. Any ideas what's best to get a nice smell back

Oooooo nasty! I reckon Bicarb of soda solution may help, but other than that plenty of magic trees might mask it until it goes away by itself.
I remember my youngest barked in my 200Tdi a few years ago, a real good deposit all over the back seat, and floor. Scrubbed and washed several times, but it was a good few weeks until it either disappeared or I got used to it.

I've tried the magic trees, and if I smell another one of those I'll be sick, I think I'll ask for some Brut or Hi karate for crimbo

Agree with Gareth ...Bicarb sprinkled and left overnight ....also heard that white wine vinegar equal measure with water neutralises it too 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

There is a product called urine off (no I'm not joking, they wanted to call it... well use your imagination!) It is very good at getting rid of bodily fluid smells! DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone
