I’m British.

You know what? I’d NEVER noticed that before.
As I remember it the originals were actual pikes, here in Britain toll road makers bought up used surplus pikestaffs left over after some wars (Poss Napoleonic?) and used them on the turnstiles.
What IS that thing that breaks loose and goes off on it’s own?
Yes this is totally going to be used by slim, fit looking people. *Snort*
Well I dunno about the “icon” bit, better to think of it as a utility trucklet, even a special edition V8 auto is still just workman’s vehicle just a converted one.
Diesel engined vehicles also need breathers on their diffs, gearboxes etc just the same as petrols.
Oh. My. F*cking. God. Oh. My. F*cking. God.
Dunno about that, I’m not gonna let those f*ckers off the hook.
I’ve gone the opposite direction with a 2" lift. But even a modest lift like that needed more sorting out than merely the different springs and shocks it had when I bought it: Polybushes with castor correction, uprated wide angle prop’ shafts, extended brake lines and finally better shocks.
A monstrously powerful black Range-Rover, customised in whatever direction the plot needs of course. If she’s the bad guy then it’d go with the whole evil-and-rich-bastard thing.
Could be an awesome look! She’d have to careful not to look like Penelope Pitstop: “Hay-ulp, hay-ulp!”
Must admit I’m intrigued.
Ah British tabloids are inveterate sh*stiirers, doesn’t necessarily mean anything.
It’s true, horses really like grass.
The original 2 door Range-Rover. It’s a neat piece of classic design and would be nice to see given modern touches without being tackily blinged out to the max like the new ones.
Mm yes, I’m feeling Jeep offers a worthy alternative to the now discontinued Defender.
As a Brit who’s never been. Wow, quite a lot of lane indiscipline around there, even compared to UK I think.
Salisbury front axles were very limited in number, a plug and play “Salisbury 60" for the front end of Defenders would be a very interesting project.
