Actually damn those time zones, it’s the middle of the night in the UK but midday here in Sydney.

‘Scuse me, I need to go call my Dad just to say hi.*

Totally agree. One of the best things about driving my Range Rover Classic is the long shift lever and throw that means I can actually feel that I am moving big bits of metal into contact with other big bits of metal.

I think the difference may be that while it still maintains the classic look, the Wrangler does have modern technology (mostly) under the skin and what old school tech it does still have (solid axles etc) is to meet its main remit as an off-roader.

I believe it’s actually ‘potato, potato’

I think she may have had some non-original bodywork applied.

Don’t forget the knuckle tattoos and a bumper sticker saying ‘Fuck Off, We’re Full’.

Umm nope. My 80s Range Rover has the indicator on the left hand side and my girlfriend’s 2006 Accord has it on the right. I also used to daily drive a LHD Mustang in Sydney and the only problems were parking garages and trees right at the edge of the pavement where I wanted to park.

That’s an urban myth. The legislation to introduce a speed limit was already underway and was in response to the fuel crisis.

It’s 60mph on a single carriageway. 70mph on a dual carriageway or motorway. Although the de facto limit on the motorway is really around 85mph.

But the Triumph Acclaim spawned the first Rover 200 and transformed that venerable marque into the global colossus it is today. Oh.

Weren’t classic muscle prices very similar just before the GFC? Juuuust sayin...

The early Noughties really were a different time.

When we were young many of us were two-stroke and over eager with emissions. You just have to think of baseball.

Quite. Absolutely nouveau riche.

The Prince Test. Would Prince be OK with it? Yes? Buy it.

Star for Lancia, always.

As in ‘What the Huck?!’

Not just the ‘Heck’?
