"Power output: 190bhp 480nm torque. (more torque than the latest rangerover 5 litre supercharged vCool."

What a load of Shyte!

If this guy wants to work for JLR you'd think he would know his facts and figures.

My 5.0 Supercharged Range Rover is 510BHP with 650nm of torque.

The whole thing is a total joke and at £43k he's clearly been on the space dust. 2016 D4 HSE

If it was £18k (still overpriced at that) I'm sure he wouldn't be receiving as much criticism. But when I saw it in the comic, I did have a chuckle at the hours he must spent, bored in the garage, with a colouring pen.

I did notice that, bet he's still got the Missing posters up Laughing


That explains the wheel nut wrench on the boombox too. I guess it's handy so that if the cat comes round and starts struggling to get free, he can bludgeon it back to unconsciousness!

I spotted this on the 'bay recently, in its way I think the would-be seller is equally delusional asking £3k for this one.

come on guys i think we are being a bit harsh! i mean he clearly has his head screwed on!
the 6 inch high defender decals over the internal door cards is ingenious!! when he gets pulled by the old bill and questioned about the motor, he can take a sly look at the door cards to prompt him of the make of car, if questioned Rolling with laughter
i know I've often been driving for over 10 minutes and thought to myself am i in my defender or my audi?? this would solve my problems too!!

Yes, and I bet when they ask "what's the registraton of the vehicle, sir?" his immediate response will be "WTF!", so they will think it genuinely must be his. Rolling with laughter


Just had a thought, he's not a member of this forum, is he?


If he is, I bet he won't admit it after the amount of good-natured ribbing he's received!

There's a fine line between "good-natured ribbing" and utterly taking the (well deserved) Censored Laughing Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

The link comes up as a Pencil valued as £500.00 Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to Censored us off.
