2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Only the Japanese could name a car with a name like this

Toyota have launched a new version of their Land Cruiser called the Invincible...........................
What makes it special? Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr well they haven't changed any of the running gear or the tyres and it's a normal LC5 but they have added privacy glass and not one but TWO dvd players!

I bet I could find a few places where they would be on a hiding to nothing with the Trade's Description Act where it wouldn't be Invincible.

The Sunday Times motoring section reckon it's comparable to a D3 TDV6 HSE ..................... I think not, it doesn't have air springs for a start! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

The was also the Cedric, by Nissan! I don't think it was ever imported into the UK. There was also the Fiat Uno TurD...................... which came to the UK as a plain old Turbo Diesel to save Fiat the embarrassment of having a car that really was a piece of s t 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
