Supertramp   10 #13 Posted January 2, 2014 Best car on the road - that's why people who can afford them drive them. Sadly I don't.  Best car on the road? In what way? Comfort? No, The way they drive? no, Handling? No. Performance? No, off road capabilities? No. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

altus   540 #15 Posted January 2, 2014 See alot more where?? Stuck in snow drifts because they're not the super off-roader their owners think  I suspect that's more to do with them not turning the driver into a super off-roader as their owners like to think.

Solihull Boy   10 #16 Posted January 2, 2014 Sorry Supertramp, it's obviously a long time since you've driven a Range Rover. The original was a groundbreaker, and extremely capable, and great in it's time, and the latest are simply fabulous and ultimately capable. However a lot of their drivers aren't.  Land Rover have tried to make them idiot proof but!!!!!  Whether you like them or want one????

L00b   441 #19 Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Out of interest which car is..in your opinion..?That's a fairly subjective question, isn't it? Outside of objective parameters that can be accepted by everyone (of which there are few, really, e.g. proven reliability), what makes a car "best on the road" for a person could be the worst to another person for very many different reasons, technical or not. Personally, I'd say the Nissan GT-R, for reasons far too numerous to list, but -in a nutshell- as the pinnacle of automotive technology and driveability it currently epitomises (at its price, and all things considered).  But I can perfectly accept that someone most interested in stowage/seating capacity and economy at a "us mere mortals" price will disagree.  Without delving into the sociological/'status' aspects of a Range Rover, I can certainly think of plenty 'better' cars (at least as reliable, more economical, at least as roomy and capable offroad, easier to live with day-to-day in urban/semi-urban setting, cheaper) for sure.
