I guess everyone has their own personal reasons

I fail to see how it makes it harder if that’s what that person likes or wants or needs or feels they need, but each to their own

@@michaelcallummayaka harder to park next, harder to see around etc

@@scrappedcars Interesting points.

Hi there, appreciate the comment. James and his Wife also have a Mini Cooper (more of a city car) But they wanted the practicality of an suv for trips away and visiting their parents on occasional weekends who live outside of London

You can fold the rear seats from L322 onwards so I’m not sure which one you mean has no foldable passenger seat. The scratches thing is personal preference. And some of us prefer the high seating position and the comfort of the numerous speed bumps in London, more than most cities I’ve visited or lived in. Not everyone wants to save money some want to enjoy it. And no not just the “rich” I used to be on £600/week and happily put most of that into my Mercedes-Benz CLK320 from 2002 with 3.2 Litre petrol engine getting average 20 mpg with my brisk driving style, including some long motorway trips granted but yeah each to their own if you like small cars good but don’t enforce it on others or judge them for liking big ones.

@@AdamVonFrancis that’s also a good point, one can have more than one car, which is sometimes overlooked

@@michaelcallummayaka The passenger seat besides the driver is not foldable. Therefore you can not transport items exceeding 1.8m in lenght with this 'utility vehicle' that fitted in every Golf or Polo up to 3m from the passenger foot room to the hatch (or in both cases longer if the rear hatch stays open). The 'utility' of this car is below average. But of course, if you spent 60k for a car, you do not want the precious indoor surfaces and seats to get any scratches anyhow, so transporting items was never an option.

@@flexiblebirdchannel I would expect the front passenger seat goes fully flat if you recline it all the way, hopefully someone with a Range Rover can confirm this, then you can carry whatever. If you come to the UK countryside you’ll see many people use Range Rovers as workhorses not everyone is overly worried about making their car dirty or damaging it.

You can’t beat that V8 grunt!

Hi Michael, I totally agree with you on preferring the larger Range Rover. I am yet to get my hands on an L405 but absolutely loved the L322!

Agreed! I’ll have to see if I can get my hands on one

Thank you, I shall see if I can get my hands on one again soon

Hello, totally agree. Such a shame that this is the reality for the Land Rover brand

You did well there buddy! May I ask what year/model it is?

Have you owned one before Bob?

@@AdamVonFrancis unfortunately I have , it cost me thousands, never ever again , I own a garage and have worked on a few for customers , the people seem to think they are the best thing since sliced bread, but then they don’t have to work on them , and as for the dealers , but that’s another depressing story !

I flew to the moon yesterday and had a cheese sandwich. Truth

Unfortunately it’s happening everywhere. Where are you based if you don’t mind me asking?

Hi Giles, absolutely. The hatchback is small but the convertible is just even smaller somehow, regarding space. I think you made the right choice there, not like we get much sunshine for the roof to be dropped anyway haha

Appreciate that, I will pass that on, thank you. How did you find this out?

@@AdamVonFrancis I'm a co-founder at Custodian 😊 (I lead product and engineering) Parking location also matters a lot, street Vs driveway etc.

Oh nice! Congratulations on the business. Any sign of insurance coming down soon? 😅

@@AdamVonFrancis For enthusiasts who look after their cars well we are certainly doing a good job at that. Underwriters currently have very little information to assess risk other than crime rates, driving record, so when you can share a lot more about why and how someone cares for their cars they can price risk more appropriately. 🤜🏼🤛🏽

Hi Michael, thank you for your comment, glad to hear you have had trouble free ownership! What year RR was your Vogue?

Now on my 6th RR including full-fat, sport, velar. Never had an issue with any of them.

Hi Colin, thank you for sharing that. It really seems that the cayennes are the perfect alternative to buying a RR in the current market. How is the Porsche? I am looking myself at the Cayenne Hybrid.

Thank you Philip, we appreciate it 😊

Thank you Tony, appreciate it 👍

Just as easy as any keyless entry vehicle which is nearly all of them.

Agreed, but we can only work with what we have Rod. I would say that Hondas and RR’s are on complete opposite ends of the reliability spectrum.

Thank you very much for your kind words 😊 We really appreciate that as this is very new to us! Thank you again, and hopefully more to come!

Hi Jake, I’m sorry to hear about your quote renewal, that’s pretty hefty! What year is your Range Rover? It could be a whole host of factors, your age being one and the fact you have written off a car previously. Will you sell your RR and buy another car because of this?

@@AdamVonFrancis 2021 well 71 plate. And I’m selling it for a 2014 Range Rover sport supercharged so basically the same. But it means I have the different in my pocket rather than it depreciating more. But I’m sure my insurance quotes will be just as bad but I ended up adding my cars to a fleet policy through my company. It was the only way to do it in the end

Most probably mate, maybe slightly less. Have you considered a Cayenne?

@@AdamVonFrancisI have a few of them already but I only wanted a v8 suv. And the v8 cayenne compared to the Range Rover isn’t comparable on a comfort level. However overall the Porsche is better to drive but the Range Rover is for comfortable for long runs which I do very often

Lies

Thank you Nguene, we were trying our best! Very new to the whole talking to the camera but thank you 😊

Thank you Philip, we appreciate it 😊

100% agree! The L322 was the peak of the Range Rover, in my opinion of course.

My Pleasure, you will not be disappointed with the V8! Now is probably a good time to buy one. How has reliability been with your one?

All is good..This 65 reg does not give me any problem. It is so smooth and inject power when changing mode to dynamic. Love it.. It's a gentleman's choice..

Thank you! It is! I see you have a nice little red one too haha.. keep up the content!

@@AdamVonFrancis I do indeed. I’d love to do more content but don’t always have the luxury of time. 🤣

@@midlifemini haha I know the feeling, just got to keep at it! Are you going to keep the mini for a while?
