And they wonder why people don't watch TV anymore... Terrible programme. It was like watching a Defender infommercial.

I lasted two mins before I had to turn it off, modern 'documentaries' if one can call them such a thing are a nothing more than a montage of shouty simple nonsense and that overbearing needless dramatic music, nothing more than an advert really.

Well I’ve just watched it and enjoyed it Rolling Eyes I guess it all depends on individual perspectives but as someone who has a 110 on order, with a long wait still to go, it just made me look forward to its arrival even more.

From someone who has watched and read just about every review possible, advert or not there were aspects of the vehicles design that were new to me and I found interesting. It was also nice to see elements of the production line Thumbs Up

Still waiting for the full “behind the scenes” production line video though Wink

That show clearly didn't send anyone to Nitra. They just had some woman drive it around a field whilst stating the obvious, a quick interview with the LR chap and intercut it all with some stock promo footage of the car and the factory.

You'll get more info from YouTube. Several videos of the production line on there.
