No need for vanity project tax write offs now his business is in Singapore.

Anyone remember the Santa PS-10 that was made in Spain. It did come into the UK but did not exactly take off and suffered huge depreciation. Trying to sell a Defender look a like did not help in my opinion - will the Grenadier go the same way? |

To be fair, the PS-10 took the basic Defender design backwards (leaf springs!) whereas Grenadier should take it forwards.

Does that look any worse than the inside of the new Pretender? 2015 HT XS 90

Yes! Looks worse even than the Classic Defender (ie pre-Puma dash as that One I like) dash. Nothing wrong with the New Defender’s dash - but I reserve judgement on that until I have drowned one......... Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed! |

James Dyson has talked about his shuttered EV project for the Sunday Times #richlist today. As far as I know we’ve never seen these pics before? It’s a stunner. 600 miles range with Dyson’s lithium ion batteries. But would have cost £150k to make a profit. https://t.co/gkiOCyalAa https://twitter.com/EVNewsDaily/status/1261933388170170368?s=20 Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge |
