Some people want Range Rovers, can’t afford Range Rovers, this is the next best thing, it’s become the new Chelsea tractor for the school gates

No problem with it except that I wish that the new popular car wasn’t a slab-fronted monstrosity. Hate the fucking things whatever the badge.

You need a constant eye out while driving round here for fish lip types with no spatial awareness razzing about in Range/Land Rovers. These just make it more accessible

My cousin Matt has worked on the line at JLR for 25 years, on Range’s specifically for the last 5 or so. He’s spent more time waiting for parts than building anything in the last few years. JLR would be finished without that luxury buyer worldwide. Seems like China can do most of it without importing anything. Massive advantage.

This video is incredible and a rare look at some of these places, they don’t let many people in to film. Making all the blanks etc for every single part of the cars is so so much work. There are alot of places that do this lately for old Mercedes parts that are NLA

I’ll be in the Touareg sorry, plus I need to fix/reset the SRS after having the steering wheel out for the retrim. If you’ve been in an EP3 they’re broadly similar in the passenger seat, the noticeable differences are from the drivers side. Discounting the overall look of the car of course…

They are, Mate works for a plastics company that do all the bumpers etc and they’re always on shutdown. On one hand range rovers are all over the place but people are getting rid after a year when they realise they can’t afford the upkeep and the fault rabbit holes.
How incredibly tasteful
Exhaust fucked hate my life.
Dropping it off at the garage after my Pyschotherapy appointment - what a day already
Glove box of the S Class was stuck closed and finally got it open without breaking the mechanism and this was in there left by original owner. The price of a decent house at the time.

It’s the capitalisation on '“Merry” and “Happy New Year” that gets me. Sorry Julian, you can keep your car, I am off to a dealer who understands punctuation and readability.
Its 1996. Word didn’t give you blue lines for grammer back then.

This here pedant is absolutely delighted to point out that you spelled ‘grammar’ wrong.
Right I’m just off for a quick wank to relieve the buildup.

In my experience, the more powerful/rich/respected the business man, the greater the disregard for grammar. Take this email from James Jebbia to Lewis Hamilton for example. Abysmal
" Hi Lewis,i can put you in touch with Jagger who runs things in England (he’s copied on the email),if there are particular items that you want from time to time & the request is reasonable he can set aside for you.
sorry but there’s no discounts, all of our products are priced very reasonably so that everyone can afford them.
talk soon
