I've just googled pictures of the new one

Suffering Fuck

If there's ever a case of "in name only"
It's definitely no Mini or Beetle.

I honestly don't know what they were thinking. The Capri was shite in its time. Very few actual car enthusiasts owned them, as they handled like a new born giraffe, so it was mostly posers who owned them, and those posers wouldn't be seen dead in a Ford now, so I can't see who they're trying to sell the name to.

They were great fun to drive and some are now fetching quite a premium.
 
Christ! that's some some achievement......Everything about it is wrong, well I mean there must be something to like but I can't fucking see it
 
There's a few of them around here and they look so ridiculously out of place in a Surrey Hills market town, even the ones that are black or grey just look daft. But in places like LA or the UAE they seem to fit in quite well, not that yellow abomination, but the G Wagon in general has a kind of Blade Runner feel to it.
 
Forget SUVs is it time to move attention elsewhere?
"The engines rev, the guitars thrum and a gruff narrator lays out why the vehicle occupying the driveway is more than just a machine. “A truck is a tool,” he says, “but a Ram – a Ram is life.”

I'm leaning towards favouring tyre slashing on pickups that aren't used for real work. It's exceptionally stupid as a recreational vehicle. Even then, somehow farmers and builders managed to ply their trade before pickups were a common thing here.

There's someone locally with a ridiculous (and ridiculously named) "Barbarian" that's now several years old, not a scratch on it, and a cover over the bed at all times. Hateful thing. I know I'm evil and bought an SUV, but at least I do put 5 people, their luggage and a walker into it.
 
The twin turbo EcoBoost F150 is a better bet than the RAM 1500. I wonder why the Dodge is so popular in the UK? Maybe just price.

If you IVA one from Australia you could get an RHD one, but it would be pricey.
 
One of my neighbours has a 15 plate Disco. He says it has never had a problem since he bought it new, he'd like a new one, but...

TBF, even the most piss-poor reliability car these days would've been a comparative tank back in the 1980s. I threw out the idea of a Peugeot due to their long term ratings, but I don't think for our 3-4k miles a year it would make a difference. (I quite like the Mazda anyhow)
