From what I hear the Range Rover is made in, now where was that again? Where is it? I don’t remember but they are good at making viruses.
Well if it’s truly English it will drop oil on your driveway.
yes, but does it have dual rear-seat dvd players built into the backs of the front seats to keep bored kids entertained (w/ individual bluetoof earbuds, of course)?
how many cupholders? … can I charge my IPhone? …. what about GPS tracking & Voice Command?
does it meet the EPA fleet gas mileage standards?
floor mats? do the back seats fold down?
can one ‘offroad’ to the local major metropolitan area BLM/Antifa
riot‘mostly peaceful’ protest?how much gas mileage can I get going from utopian CHOP to Portlandia?
never understood the ‘Brit thing’ about how good they were at producing ‘offroad’ vehicles … they had their collective asses handed to them in North Africa during WWII until Rommel got sick just before El Alamain & was recalled back to Germany … the ‘Rat Patrol’ did the rest
… never produced any decent war vehicles … although they were better than the French & the Italians (who wasn’t?)
(they did product decent Triumphs & Beezer … & some MG’s)
I loved my TR-6. Twin carb 6 cylinder flew!

Tall, with Nice square sides for for getting hit with RPG’s FFS.
1) Toyota Land Cruiser. The rest are not even close for reliability in the middle of nowhere and Africa
2) Real Hummer. When they run.
Also used F-250/350’s have become more popular with the bad guys for several reasons.
British vehicles are about as reliable as Italian cars except they leak oil rather than catch fire spontaneously.
I learned my lesson about British cars back in the 80’s. Got older and forgot it. In 2012 I bought another British car. It was plagued with electrical and waterpump/thermostat problems. I was reminded not to ever buy British cars again.
have 5 British vehicles of various sorts
they’re OK with me
