Bought a sensible car

We had our second baby in August, and I have stopped having company cars and always had an estate for all the gear we lug around with two young kids. Wife went home to Czech Republic to see her family and take both monsters with her and I took a trip up to Sheffield and came back with the following very sensible estate car Smile Only has a 70 litre tank which is a downside as only get 200 miles out of a full tank driving sensibly round town!







She wasn't all that pleased when she found out Rolling with laughter

Just realised that the pictures are not the right way up, how do I adjust them to rotate them to the correct way up?

United Kingdom 2016 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Santorini Black

very nice, the look of the E61 grew on me. I had a 535d estate and it was the nuts, chopped it in for the first fattie, it was one of the best cars i had owned. The only issue in my ownership was rust on the boot, under the bottom of the opening top glass. They replaced the entire boot and it came back 12 months later..... PITA. but other than that it ran like a dream (and got a lot more than 200 miles out of a tank). I have a hankering for an M5 or RS6 but have to tow stuff so it doesn't make sense.... Big Cry There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

No it wouldn't make sense. These are worth a lot more than the saloon, and I think they will increase in value. Great car, far too complicated - it took over an hour to programme the radio!

The wife prefers this to her RR, but she won't be driving this much as she has a habit of damaging every car she goes near or looks at! Big Cry Alex
