Nice video Calvin! Love the cinematics! I'm looking to see any good motorway cruisers as I'm doing more motorway miles so my 2007 BMW 116i has a farewell goodbye. I need something that has cheap tax and will soak up the miles with no problem; it must be sporty to drive ( There is a 5 mile B-Road on my commute) . Maybe a Jaguar XE or a 3 Series EfficientDynamics. Anybody got suggestions on the car? My budget is just shy of £18k

It’s a weird British thing Calvin, everyone I know who’s had one Has had one blow up but it’s almost like a coming of age thing amongst certain brits! As for reliability they’re shite, best thing to do is do what the yanks do with them and swap that engine straight out for one that’s proven! Even today Land Rover make great cars that are still hugely flawed especially in regards to electrics! I don’t know why they just don’t get some proven Japanese engineers in-house to make them reliable

I took one in trade in 2016 for a dodge srt10 pickup, the landie had 3000 miles on it, 110csw in black, it was out of production and drove like shit. Put big wheels, led’s, some urban shit and sold it to a Land Rover development engineer who couldn’t get one, he came down in a prototype evoque convertible. Why do people love these? I made nice money on the deal. Happy days

What??? It's beautiful mate. 90s were 7 seats. four on bench seats and 3 front originally. A better car is subjective. The old Defender can go anywhere and can be repared easily no matter where you are in the world. I have a '97 300tdi 90 and I love it. 70mph no problem. Defenders are hands on.

Since then ive been subscribed but i still didnt make up my mind on which SUV to buy ive been looking at 2017 X5 40d, Porsche Cayenne Diesel 2017 or Audi Q7 of the same year. Which SUV would you prefer as i have twins on the way and my 373 000 km (230 000 miles)Passat b7 2013 is becoming more and more unreliable by the day so a change must happen. 😁
