We’ve had the same set of KO2s on our ZJ since 2015. Absolutely fantastic tires!

I expect you could do that. I’m in the UK and would be more than happy to help!

David, is that shifter bezel the same as one in a RHD diesel ZJ? If so, I can find you one!

It said “Owned for 15 years”. They didn’t mention whether or not they ran!

It’s not the daily mileage that’s the problem, it’s the less frequent longer trips.
I’d happily have an electric car for my 50 mile commute, but those times every couple of months where I drive over 500 miles in a short period of time I’d need to have another car (or ire one).

Seriously?

Even a Golf GTI has a 155mph top speed, if that figure even matters to anybody.
The Audi is only restricted to 130mph electronically.

We don’t know how well it grips yet. Have you driven one?

Also, this is a base model BMW FWD econobox. What makes you think it’s going to be the epitome of refinement or corner

“I really don’t see any other car that competes with the BMW in terms of real world very fast transport.”

At last, somebody that agrees with what I’ve thought for years!
Living in England, it’s considered fairly socially unacceptable to voice this opinion in company.

It likely happens more with Chryslers because they make some of the most common solid-axle vehicles out there.

Sounds like German car fans, blaming “American maintenance” for their unreliability.

This is still the wrong way around.

Cars with this kind of feature should have two modes. ‘Normal’ mode and ‘Stealth’ mode.
Normal should be the default, so that it seems like you have to ‘quieten the beast’ rather than amplify it.

This should also be operated by a rocker switch that maintains its position for next

I love this fact! They were also used on Rolls Royces and possibly even Bentleys too IIRC.

I had to buy a new passenger mirror for my ‘91 Grand Wagoneer recently and there were loads of compatible ones available on eBay here in the UK because of this.
The Rolls Royce name tax still meant it was cheaper to buy one from

Rear fogs are actually often on both sides, although they are only required to be on one.

I never really liked green cars until I bought one. Now I’ve realized it’s clearly one of the best colors.
Here’s mine:

In all of my cars it’s the other way around. The pedal is very stiff until the engine is running, at which point the booster helps and it softens up.
Surely this Discovery would be the same?

The funniest part is when the Vauxhall badge falls off - the plastic underneath is usually shaped like the Opel logo!

They certainly used to, but don’t they now use the term Quattro for non-Torsen systems too?

Absolutely this! I’ve been banging on about that for years but people rarely seem to understand.
Physical controls allow me to locate my hand on the control /before/ pressing it, so I can feel my way to it, briefly look to confirm I’ve got it right, then press whilst not looking.
With a touchscreen, all of that

It’s probably a safe assumption that he means “mid-overtake”.
It’s just the same here in the UK. You’ll be travelling 80mph, overtaking a truck doing ~65mph. Mid-way through that move somebody will come up behind you at ~90mph and act like you’re hogging the wrong lane.

It’s not bad lane discipline, just lack of
