Seconded
Alright Clarkson.
I can tell that car smells of someone just absolutely mainlining pack after pack of Hamlets.
Fuck me my dad used to smoke those smelled like cats piss
That was really interesting, it seems to me that industry as a whole needs a little rethink on EV’s and these ridiculously powerful examples are too common now.
It’s also crazy to me how much people will pay to lease Land Rover now and they’re not the most reliable either.
Walked past a new land rover earlier today, couldn’t believe how small it was! They’re tiny now
There’s a small version of the defender, that was probably what you saw. The bigger version is…big
The Evoque is a pretty normal size.
This Defender and the RR Vogue tower over my Touareg, which isn’t exactly small
They probably did a smaller model for all the grief they get about school run mums driving the huge ones in towns and cities.
New defenders reek of estate agent Michael Fabricants
A friend of mine has just taken delivery of a 4 series M50 or whatever it’s called. 2.9 or maybe 3.9s to 60 and a £72k price tag. Asking him, he says all good for local journeys but to quote ‘a fucking pain in the arse for long journeys’ as the infrastructure isn’t quite there, plus it’s really expensive to top up away from home. It’s a company car so various tax incentives for him, but £70k and 5-600bhp to go to Sainsbury’s is quite frankly batshit/hilarious to me
I’d consider a leccy for the school runs and pottering around town but I’d still need the Touareg for towing
Yeah we have a Leaf for local trips and apart from being ugly as sin it’s the best round town car I ever had. Silent, easy to drive, fast enough, comfy and completely reliable. It is ugly, though.
Living on a road with 2 school gates, these kinds of vehicles are fucking terrible. Tiny people driving picking up one tiny person, not knowing the width of their vehicle, parking shit and holding everyone up and blocking in school busses.
I’m self aware enough to park a 1/4 mile away and walk
The amount of silent swears when I have to walk on the road with my daughter because some idiot has blocked the pavement is unreal…
I’d love one, perfect for my day to day use.
Tell me about it!
