And sat at a max of 3mph in some posh London Street, the only one of those things that matters is the first point "charming to look at"!

Like i said, you could turn up at Buckingham Palace in the old car and probably get a "nice car" for Her Royal Highness" turn up in the new 3 door and you'd be sent to the "footballers" back entrance....... ;-)
Yes, she'd never been seen anywhere near an SVO Range Rover on big wheels......

except when forced to by military men in uniform...

That car has nothing to do with the military, it is part of the royal fleet and has been used from Edinburgh to Windsor to drive through the crowds and wave. The only military personnel I could see was some mad old German but I think he came with the monarch rather than the car wink

Buy this 3door rangie instead:





which comes with two important advantages


1) It's actually cool

2) it will appreciate

;-)
Land Rover are apparently reb-building six of those and they will probably be in the region of 80k.

I think the interior is stunning on the SV, but the body looks to be a little too high. Maybe a couple of inches off the roof line and a longer front door would make it look a bit better.

But the elderly will appreciate the higher ride of an SUV vs some low slung exotica, so yeah, I can see him going for one.

Gonna sell like hot cakes..., makes no sense, but it matters not a jot. Could probably become a mainstream option in the near future 😉

The thing that worries me about this two-door Rangie is how long before it morphs into a big one of these and the Kardashians start driving a diamond encrusted pink one?

If you already have expressed an interest, why do you need to click another button. Surely the point of you showing your interest was a hint for them to do so?

I would spec mine in all black with a light creme interior.
But the depreciation will be jaw dropping

What are you basing that on? Expensive cars or Range Rovers? RR’s are very good for depreciation.

May be slow, but they don't seem to bottom out at any decent amount like a 911 for example which probably cost the same new. So where a really old and not particularly well looked after 996 is £10k min, RR of similar age are £2k.
