It’s sort of like saying Cat Dennings’ boobs are too big for a string bikini, you’ll just never know for sure until you actually try it.

I see from the responses that none of you have ever spent any real time in London.

Exactly! Jalopnik is almost constantly complaining about the stringent rules of the 25-year import ban, so why go through all the trouble of importing a car for a few years that you could drive when you move back home?

As an American living in England, unless you’re planning on selling the car in the UK at the end of the trip, just buy over here. $30,000 over here equates to nearly £24,000 post-Brexit and there are all manners of Alfas, Land Rovers, Porsches, Maseratis, any French car, and so on and so forth that you’ll never have a…

I disagree with a couple of these:

The R63 isn’t pointless when you compared it with almost any luxury SUV of the time. It’s faster, more spacious, and probably about the same on gas as a V8 X5. The looks are subjective but it’s definitely better looking than most minivans.

He crashed on the golf course because his engine failed, and he was hailed for having saved lives by diverting to a golf course instead of crashing into a tract of suburban houses. He’s considered to be an excellent pilot.

I have almost done this. The sun was in my eye, the taxiway was freshly asphalted and really stuck out. The tower noticed and warned me, after I corrected and apologized they said it happens a lot at certain times of the day.  

The crash on the golf course was caused by a repair done decades before. The NTSB concluded the repair was done according to the procedure written for that repair and that there was no required follow-up.

Honestly Raph, it’s kinda making me sick how much people are blowing this out of proportion. This kind of stuff happens literally all the fucking time in small airplanes, and sometimes airliners as well, but you don’t hear about it because it didn’t involve a celebrity.

Ahh, OK. I haven’t seen those movies.

Who is John Wick?

I am very impressed with the seamless transition between technical physics terminology and bro-speak. Outstanding effort my good Sir (-brah).

I suppose that you could call it the jump of the century.

That has to be the landing of the century!

It can be.

But what about hiring a car buying consultant? Is that a good idea?

Wow, what a SMOKING deal!

I had one, and I miss her very much. She was beautiful, she was elegant, and I was willing to overlook the constant fear of boiling/leaking suspension fluid - which would need some special hose or pump to be airfreighted in from Germany - because everything else was so *right*.

Great! Now, a safety cage cockpit that doesn’t wad up like tin foil...

Other than maybe two serious answers below I thought I would throw in another two cents. Typically a jet is owned by a single entity but then rented out (along with the crew, maintenance and hangar space) to other individuals who can’t or don’t want to own one. Besides having a different plane for different functions…
