It doesn’t have paddles, even as an option. Maybe that’s the maker of the steering wheel controls for the audio/ cruise etc 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

I wonder who supplies the squeaks and annoying rattles, or do they do that in house?

Click image to enlarge https://europe.autonews.com/car-cutaways/s...r-defender I see that the same website has also broken news that Land Rover has suspended production of 2 phev models. May be for the same reason that BMW is recalling 26,000+ vehicles 2020 Defender 110 SE 240D: Fuji White. 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE 2007 Freelander2 HSE (man) |

And now Hyundai is recalling some 77,000 E-Kona’s worldwide after a spate of battery fires in LG Chem batteries installed in those EV’s. Interesting that Kia hasn’t had the same issue with their Soul and Niro cars using the same power pack 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

Plus 3 years free servicing. Mind you, if it was JLR they wouldn't offer anything. Just like BMW https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-car...-fire-risk WARNING. This post may contain sarcasm. |
