I just download them to my tablet and then upload from there using the "choose photos" function.

I like the last picture best, a typical Land Rover scene. A broken down 110, abandoned, with the journalist completing his journey on a donkey.

What struck me on that photo was the amount of windscreen on the passenger side that was unswept, is that normal for a modern vehicle?

I think he's reporting back to Gerry at HQ, in a 3rd rock from the Sun sort of way... |

Ah, that could be it. I wondered if he had been reading the electrical section of the workshop manual about the 85 ECUs and their data bus and his brain had caught fire.

It's a press launch, so expect glowing reviews from these scribes:
Gavin Green - Car Magazine https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/features/opi...vin-green/ Leon Poultney - Freelance https://www.leonpoultney.com/about-me/ Nic Cackett - Autocar road tester. Sean Carson - Chief reviewer @AutoExpress Jack Rix - Deputy Editor of Top Gear New Defender, lighter than it looks... https://t.co/pXUIjBbHjG https://twitter.com/jack_rix/status/1229860720604520448?s=20 When you've spent so much money on the car, you can't afford the garage: Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge |
