Is the Range Rover Sport the apex in arsehole wheels ?

Makes Land Rover look like a worthy option

Again, I quite like that - pop a couple of lasers and some serious strobes on it - and some underbody LEDs and you've got a tasty set of wheels

It's called the Chevrolet Niva now. Despite a German engine and Japanese transmission it demonstrates fidelity to the Niva name by being a poorly built deathtrap.

Poorly-built death trap was what my father in law called Defenders Still don't think I've seen a single one in Africa yet.

Wrong, wrong, wrong...something like that is certainly not worthy of the Chevy name.

Chevrolet is GM's low end brand in most of Asia and Europe. Hence insipid weirdness like the (made in Kazakhstan) Chevrolet Aveo.

You've not seen the kind of shed that gets sold over here with a chevrolet badge then?

Their range includes this, the foulest-looking vehicle ever seen on Britain's roads:

I know, someone said, lets make a cross between a Nissan Prairie and a fucking hearse.

From classic to modern...

For some reason I quite like that

I didn’t realise the Niva still existed. Did we fight the Cold War in vain?

Yup. Skoda survived, too. Yet Rover had to be put down. No justice.

I like the look of that- a no nonsense box . But I like dacias and other cheap bottom feeding stuff so maybe I am biased

Seriously, what did the Czech government do to please VAG that the UK government didn't do to BMW in respect of Rover? Let a bunch of crooks run it, I suppose.

Germany have had a long standing interest in Skoda and it’s output.

VAG micromanaged Skoda from day one. BMW left Rover to their own incompetent devices until it was too late. They did get Mini out of it so their goal of achieving economies of scale through acquiring other brands half worked.

 

[Poi E]

They micromanaged them too well. The latest Skodas have panel gaps better than some of the new Audis I've seen.

Lots in Kenya not all British army. Either runs forever or dies 5minutes down the road. Engine exploding and catching fire as you role out the gate was the most impressive failure I seen.

There are several companies devoting to fixing land rovers none of them ask for more than a 100,000 quid .

Orders are now being taken for this little beauty. Expect to pay around £250K

If you want to talk about crooks have a quick look at the folks who bought Jaguar Land Rover.

I’m holding out for the Onyx makeover before I open my wallet.

I like the shape of the front - good for batting away cyclists...
