..Look at a car tomorrow.. could be a goodun so might buy it.

1995 Range Rover 4.6 HSE, will chuck some pics up if i decide to go for it.

3 cars i hear you ask.. yes 3!

redneck

Binary Shadow

Id assume this thread is dead with the new Road Car Tax for Said Vehicle

Edd

why in the lords holy name are you buying a 4.6l V8 tank to drive around A roads for?

Binary Shadow

considering the tax band on that one is the same as my vectra/calibra im not worried and they are good for up to 23mpg on a run.. if your careful.

and why.. because i can? because i want to?

Great, youre going to pollute several times more than necessary, wear the road surface more, create visual obstruction, and best yet--be 10X more likely to kill another motorist due to the inherently poor design of a Range Rover for street use.

Because you want to? No, because youre a selfish ass. Might want to try a penis pump, theyre dangerous to your vascular tissue, but far safer for the other motorists on the road.

Binary Shadow

pfft whatever mate pollution can kiss my ass, fed up with the CO2 BS, the climate has been warmer before, this weather is nothing new, and theres stronger evidence showing its down to solar activity not CO2.

Youd have to hit something in the 1st place to kill anyone and lets face it doesnt happen every day, yes they cause a visual obstruction but so do HGVs.

Paying road tax just like everyone else so the roads should look shiney new in my wake tbh but then they dont spend that tax on roads now do they.

Nothing unsafe to other motorists assuming they dont do anything silly like drive into me head on!

And i dont need a penis pump mate no matter what you might think.

If that came out of anyone elses keyboard, I probably wouldnt have laughed so much I fell out of my chair

Whilst Im sure Binarys accidents werent his fault I must admit I did laugh at the irony...... sorry

On topic though I must admit Range Rovers are fun and whilst sportsmen the world over can thrash any number of motorboats, jet skis, and god knows what without any finger pointing I see no problem in the car enthusiast doing the same.
Career, Wife, Mortgage... my sig was better when it listed guitars and PC's and stuff!

Edd

yes because theyre being used for what theyre designed for, if binary was a farmer and had to use a 4x4 to get across his fields, fine

the only thing that pisses me off is that hes not, he lives on what looks like a housing estate, in the middle of a vast urban area

why do you need a 4x4 for that?

Rivkid

why do you need to go flying along in a motorboat or a jet ski? Just because they were built for fun makes it ok? So by that logic (if you can call it that) if they built a range rover that was just for fun but still guzzled the same amount of fuel that would be ok would it?

But it all boils down to him saying Ive got a small dick, a big wallet to compensate and very little brain.

The most likely person to die in a rangerover crash is the driver of the rangerover.

Only if you were using it for off road fun, theres no point in doing it and staying on tarmac.
